F Minus by Tony Carrillo for October 14, 2021

Run, don’t walk, lady.

Around 2010 a seemingly normal coworker I slightly knew told me how he’d just seen some Flat Earth theory videos from some guy. He said to me that, “he makes some good points.” I was confused and silent as I slightly nodded & walked on. I wondered, "what were these “good points,” there are are no good points." I thought nothing further of it and forgot about it for 4-5 years then it was everywhere.

When I was a kid we used to make fun of people from hundreds of years ago who believed this and they didn’t even have the benefit if literal video evidence from low orbit like we do now. I am mystified by this mental disorder and its cause.

…and with that, the schisms begin.

(Meanwhile back in Blefuscu, observers are puzzled by the mysterious appearance of hundreds of eggs, all opened at the wrong end.)

Off my cloud.

Are all the turtles also triangular?

He wants them to go live on the bottom??

I once worked for a new MBA boss, and when we discussed some problem, she thought we should seek a third opinion so that we could “triangulate”.

Well, technically, if all three sat in triangular positions, she wouldn’t have been totally wrong… Except for her use of the word in respect to discussion, of course. :-)

C’mon dude! It’s really a cone. Those fools are only seeing it as flat.

They just fell hard for that Practical Joke the Universe is playing on us.

Might be true. Since 2020, I’ve been living on the edge

It’s a hexagon I’m pretty sure.

In n-dimensional space, it should be possible to find a “flat Earth”. Go there.

Well, they have a point. Three of them, in delusion.

What if one of those sides has a length of zero?

isosceles please ;+)

Too realistic to be funny

I have similar jerks in my Reptilian Invasion Group.
