A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.
Rules
This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.
Wrong. Flat Earthers do think the Earth is round.
The rest of us think it's spherical.
Latest and greatest flat earth is that Antarctica is a wall that encircles us all. Well, it encircles the land that us normies are allowed to know about. Beyond the Antarctic wall lies a vastness of land that us normies are kept unaware of. I am not sure why. It was something to do with the riches of the secret land. Also, no one knows how far the land stretches. So the earth is flat but we don't know how far it goes so we don't know what the shape is really.
Just to be perfectly clear: I am not a flat earther and I don't believe any of the above. It's a load of (very entertaining) nonsense. Keep the documentaries coming please!
I have also heard the story, that the earth is in fact a sphere, but the rest of it is covered in ice also known as the antarctica
Oblong spheroid to be pedantic.
I have an oblong hemorrhoid
You should get that checked out
I work with someone who believes the flat earth bullshit. Our company makes pharmaceutical actives, pretty much everyone there has degrees in science. Yet one guy persists with "the earth is flat". I'm incredulous over the willful ignorance toward reality.
How wonderful would it be if he was messing with you the whole time.
