It's not a planet.

But you'd die before before weighing yourself.

Would have been a better end panel IMO.

Wouldn't you die on pluto too?

Holds up "Dwarf planets matter" protest sign

Alright then, where's my Eris and Ceres representation?

[-] Chriszz@lemmy.world 27 points 2 years ago

I think you could survive long enough to weigh yourself on mars if you had a scale. It would be immensely painful but not instantaneous.

Joke’s on you, I’d die before weighing myself on Earth too.

Mars and Pluto are about equal for survivability, no? And The Moon for that matter.

[-] Rakonat@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago

Without a space suit each planet has roughly the same survivability.

[-] Steve@startrek.website 2 points 2 years ago

I assumed that to weigh yourself in the conventional manner you would need to be standing on a solid surface.

[-] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 13 points 2 years ago

On Venus you'd probably die in 5 different ways before weighing yourself. Least hospitable place since H.H. Holmes had a hotel!

Dad joke science memes. I like it.

[-] UltraGreen@hexbear.net 9 points 2 years ago

I thought you could survive on Mars for a few minutes before passing out?

[-] cmgvd3lw@discuss.tchncs.de 10 points 2 years ago

Not enough to buy a weigh scale there.

[-] someguy3@lemmy.ca 6 points 2 years ago

Dead or alive I'd still weigh different.

[-] glimse@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

No no, if you don't measure your weight yourself then you don't have a weight. Didn't you read it?

[-] someguy3@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

If a weight falls in a planet, does it make a weigh?

[-] glimse@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

This graphic taught me that unless the weight weighs itself, it does not have a weight

[-] Toes@ani.social -1 points 2 years ago

Weight is all relative anyways, Pluto is forever
