flat earth people

I heard about the research vessel and the public vote… but what the heck? Is that a reference to SpongeBob Square-pants or something??

I’m sure you can google its origins

Nope, it just leads back to the internet poll about the research vessel. I’m sure it’s more than random, it has a childish sponge-bob sound to it.

I was sure this thread was titled “flat dark earth people” I thought it was going to be about the colour. Fun thread though.

Well, here in Dunedin, NZ, a new albatross chick was born a couple of weeks ago.
The name mooted was ‘Birdy McBirdface’. I almost shot myself upon hearing that.

Nobody says you can’t suggest BirdyMacBirdface, or CountBirdface

On the DOC website, it reads: “This chick is far too royal for Birdy McBirdface!”.

Hmm, Master Birdface, King Birdface, Prince Birdface

People are free to suggest, but that’s just a ridiculous name :person_facepalming:

Having seen those massive birds up close, that’s the last name I would call them !

In the end BoatyMcBoatface is a ridiculous name, but it would have been funny
BTW there is now ParsyMcParseface

But red bull gives you wings :smiley:

Oh god ! It’s getting worse !

indeed?

Yes. ‘nominal aphasia’.

Because I really wish I didn’t understand half the crap I read on the net.

nah :smiley:

SWMBO & I bought a Shakespearean Ski Boat.

She christened it “MidSummerDazeWetDream”…

The urge to PUNish is strong in that one! :slight_smile:

This video reminded me of this thread

I just realize this problem has grown to an alarming level. The UN has to act, the faster the better.

Next they’ll tell us they can control the weather. :open_mouth:

> Next …. control the weather

What, that story again?

Just a quick analysis helps lead you to a rather solid, clear conclusion. Conspiracy theory believers adopt these beliefs like a form of religion.

These are people who refuse to accept reality. It is a neurosis. You can argue facts with them until you’re blue in the face — they won’t budge. It even borders on cultism. It has helped usher in this wave of populist politics that makes a terrible reveal of just how badly society has decayed. Human beings, left unchecked, have a tendency to embrace chaos and self-destruction. It’s illogical. But it’s a nasty side effect of the inventive mind.
