Australia should be plutoed
When I was in school, I was always told that even though Australia is surrounded by water, it meets the criteria for being a continent, even though it looks like a big island. However, given the recent events surrounding the eviction of Pluto from the Family of Planets, I suggest we do the same with Australia, relegating it to the lowly status of "island".

Who's with me?

3. How about Europe?
They don't even look like a continent. They suck. Off with their continentality!

Continents are overrated anyhow.
