Back when "The Flat Earth Society" was all about trolling and making an elaborate scientific joke and not hardcore extremist science deniers.
50 0 ReplyCan you explain this one to my ignorant ass? What's the joke?
6 0 ReplyThe joke is the absurdity of a flat earth and making puns like "all around the globe" in that context and creating absurdist proof that the Earth is flat despite everyone knowing since kindergarten that it isn't.
But some people started taking it too seriously.
20 0 ReplyImagine claiming something as stupid as the flatness of Earth.
The first group of people will try to prove that it's round.
The second group will be triggered by the explanations of the first group. They will try to prove that Earth is geoid.
The third group will see how people who claim that Earth is round are being attacked.
The fourth group of edgelords will pretend that they believe that Earth is flat.
This ritual will continue until the myth of flat Earth is created. Isn't it funny?

There's not much I miss about Reddit, but one of those things is a proper community to put jokes that have been run into the ground. The unnecessary arrow is one thing, but then the second reaction image really kill the otherwise mildly amusing joke.

Since I've seen this last time it's gotten moldy and picked up a useless arrow and a useless reaction image.

Thank you for including a reaction image so I know how to feel about it.
23 0 ReplyIt could still use some red circles for the rest of us non-geniuses. I look at this and see nothing.

Unnecessary arrow tho
22 0 ReplyI wouldn’t have gotten the joke otherwise, maybe add a red circle and a laughing minion next time to be extra clear.

And comment, and attached image. This joke works with just the tweet but apparently we need to kill the frog like 8 different ways.
4 0 ReplyWell it kinda feels like that I don't need to think to understand the meme, since the required emotional response is over there as the facepalmers.
I assume this meme is just a repost from OP. It's a perfectly decent meme OP, dw we aren't bashing you down.

I'm just waiting for Elon Musk to come out as a flat earther. It's about as absurd for the CEO of an EV company to support Trump as it would be for the CEO of a space company to believe in a flat earth.

5 0 ReplyWait people think this is real?
4 0 ReplyWell I know my uncle thinks the world is flat but he is from a third world country. Not sure what's up with the muricans.
