The earth is flat?

I’ve always wondered, where are all of the thousands of satellites that should be up there?

You can take a look at the ascending or descending moon and observe the shadow of the Earth on it.
Hah! The big projector has you fooled. It's a conspiracy! The illuminati are in cahoots with the Queen of England in a vast plot to take over the world, have black helicopters hovering over every city, and inviting aliens from other flat disks to earth to subjugate humanity. Plus, Elvis. Don't ever forget Elvis when we are talking about aliens and conspiracies. This is Very Serious (TM).

Lemonaaaaaaaade, that cool refreshing drink.
 
It's a giant argument from incredulity coupled with a lack of understanding of basic physics. They will tell you that they understand the heliocentric model better than "globers" do yet will say stuff like, "How can gravity be strong enough to hold the ocean down and curve its surface yet weak enough to allow birds to fly?" Which of course, is perfectly consistent with our understanding of how gravity works and indicates that no, they do not understand it.

Or equating the "vacuum" of space with Megamaid. :D

Oooh! Megamaid! I need that for the reso head on my bass drum!
 
Whenever I’m in the mood for a laugh I visit Youtube and check out some of the flat Earth videos - Facebook is also entertaining. I still can’t figure out if they’re sincere or having a laugh themselves. The arguments and explanations are so entertaining. I recommend it for a bit of entertainment. The NASA conspiracies, the ice wall (don’t they know about aircraft?) go have a look, you’ll be entertained and amazed.
