    Nah I liked the explanation of Discworld better. the sun goes over the world then is snapped at by the world turtle so it takes time to come up again from the other side.

    Also it's flat because the creater -not god, there are plenty of those but one creator- was aiming to make the very first pizza. It was out too long and pests, buildings and stuff started growing on it like fungus XD

    According to the Flat Earth Society (yes, I'm actually reading their wiki because wow), the seas are kept from dripping off the earth by huge walls of ice (which is what Antarctica is apparently). They're not sure what is beyond the "Ice Wall" that apparently protects Earth and keeps it in there.

    I always wonder what kind of drugs you have to be on when you come up with those kind of theories. It's sad because the theory is as sound as when a baby drops his toy and thinks it's now "gone" since he can't see it anymore.

    Sadder still if there were no drugs or drinking involved. Imagine getting only the wack theory without the fun stuff!

    Flat Earth the LitRPG.

    Flat-Earther goes to investigate the facts Journey to the Center of the Earth style with stats because (??)

    Anyway, he discovers the earth is indeed not flat, BUT we're in a holographic universe simulation.

    No one believes that one either.

    Starts on a ship going to find the "Ice Wall" then falling down the rabbit hole.

    Tis a crazy world.

    ROFL! Flat Earth the World. It has potential! I mean, it has an interesting imaginary as a 'board game' for the gods, right? Now I'm thinking...
