If the earth is flat why haven’t we tunneled to the other side? It would save loads of travel time.

I last left my mom's basement on March 22 and the moon did not look like a half sphere - it's definitely a crescent. 🌙

I got on a kiteboarding excursion somewhere on the planet, and when I fly out of Detroit, transfer flights in Newark, Dubai or some other mid east country, arrive in Thailand, Vietnam, or say the Philippines, and on returning transfer in Korea or China, and then to LAX or Chicago, back to Detroit, I never see the edge...

Think of it as like the complex plane. It's flat, but the singularity at infinity is like the poles. You didn't fly over the poles.

April Fool's.

I worked at a machine shop that had one of the world’s longest lathes for a while - the machinist rode in a cab along the length of the machine. They discovered that even though they had been meticulous about leveling it, it was off - turned out that the curvature of the Earth was the culprit and instead of using special levels they had to use lasers to straighten it instead of leveling it...this was in the late ‘60s.

The Sun’s a giant cup of coffee, hence the raison d’etre of the Milky Way.

It is, but you don’t notice because it’s pulling on all of you at once, not just your hair.

My brother believes we never went to the moon. I’m not sure if it is just a game for him or if he really believes it. He could be a Flat Earther by now.
