Uranus isn't just gassy, it's also tilted completely sideways.

I was about to comment on that when you beat me to it! Uranus is funnier than Myanus, gassy, tilted completely sideways, rolls around the plane like a giant ball, puts on a cosmic light show when you put a match to it, and produces Brown 25... because things come out a little different at Uranus.
