who's a flat earther?

[Gazman]

So, are flat earthers the same people who think concert pitch should be 432 Hz?

Flat Earth is for amateurs. I'm into Square Earth

I'll tell you the truth, I've never been a flats fan.. I like rounds all the way, even on my P basses. I thought many of you guys were the opposite..

 

[Michedelic]

Dunno. I don't breed worms.
(AFAIK )

It’s a whole can of worms you don’t want to open.

What if you cross-bred a flatworm with an earthworm?

‘Or what happens when you mix pasta with anti pasta?

This is inaccurate. It's turtles all the way down.

Elephants? Now you’re just being ridiculous.

 

[bass12]

Does the turtle circle the sun or is it the other way around? And why is there no turtle emoji available on Talkbass?

When I took physics 101 at uni, one of our projects was to prove that the Earth was spheroidal, as described in science textbooks.

The purpose of the exercise was to get us to question established science by testing theories for ourselves, based entirely on their own merit.

Eeveryone knows that the Earth is round, not flat, but it's surprisingly difficult to come up with an experiment that proves it without relying on textbooks that merely assume it to be true.

Not an experiment so much as an observation - objects disappear beyond a horizon at sea or in West Texas.

Ohhh! BURN!

That Earth is clearly a re-appropriated turntable platter (complete with mountain-covered spindle in the center).

I wonder if they grabbed the irony of this meme.
The tear drops as well as the splash from the dolphin are good examples of water spinning and bending toward itself.

Most flat earther I encountered appear to have a hard time grasping basic sphere geometry.
They tend to confuse levels and planes, up and north.

Once I thought it'd be funny to argue with a flerfer using a "fight BS with BS" strategy. I made up some bad science that if the earth were flat basketballs wouldn't bounce. It turned out just sad and not at all funny how willing he was to just accept the ridiculous argument as good faith.

We're in. That's all that matters

What fascinates me most about the idea is what would also have to be true. Every pilot is in on it. All the shipping companies. Every science teacher. Road construction guys. More I can’t think of right now.

The spindle is the North Pole, obviously.
