pluto - v., to demote, devalue, screw over.


Note the lower-case in this sense. From last year's demotion of the artist-former-known-as-a-planet. Which in turn was named after the Roman name for Hades, the god of the dead and the underworld, from Greek ploutos, wealth (from the belief that all wealth comes from the ground) -- but you knew that.
