Pictures created by people who knew full well how they could be interpreted. For pictures to fit in here there needs to be an element of plausible deniability, although it can be a tenuous one...

What I wouldn't give to walk into a store and say to the cashier "Hey, can I get a taste of Uranus?" And then we're both snickering about it.

The problem arises when people reply and up the ante. I just blush so quickly ๐Ÿ˜ฎโ€๐Ÿ’จ I have no game and I'm the most transparently thirsty bitch ever made.

Iโ€™ve been there. The cashiers try to out do each other with Uranus puns!

They also have a few billboards on Interstate 69 in Indiana, in what can absolutely not be a coincidence!

This place is fun. Not too far from Springfield, MO. Decent fudge and bulk candies. Lots of merch and touristy stuff. Also have a playground, museum and other things to do while exploring Uranus Every time someone enters the entire staff greets them with Uranus themed greetings.

They really knew. All of their advertising materials are a hilarious delight.

The mayor of Uranus has a huge (statue of a male chicken) cock. They're fond of doing television bits to talk about how visitors should experience it.
