    Crazy Edmond Journal!  Don't they know flat earthers do not "come from around the globe".  A globe is spherical.  Only round earthers can come from "around the globe".  Flat earthers come from either "over there" or from "under the globe".

    Maybe some at the newspaper has a sense of humour and left "around" in the article as a play on words.

    $129 for the early bird rate! That’s a steal for what’s got to be a pretty amusing event to attend. Too bad it’s in Edmonton.

    Why is that?  Is Edmonton too close to the edge?

    I honestly cannot fathom the flat earther’s mindset.  Every time NASA posts something on Facebook, they come out in droves to comment...blows my mind that they actually believe that the earth is a flat disk sitting on the back of some turtle or whatever it is.  That’s a whole new level of crazy.

    This line from the article...

    "The leading flat-earther theory holds that Earth is a disc with the Arctic Circle in the center and Antarctica, a 150-foot-tall wall of ice, around the rim.  NASA employees, they say, guard this ice wall to prevent people from climbing over and falling off the disc."

    ... begs the question, OK, what is on the other side of this disc?

    I really wanna know!

    Is this the kind of group that draws protestors whenever they do something? I haven't really heard much about them except that they're stupid.

    I'd like to see Trump become president of the Flat Earther group.  I like consistency in strange behavior and opinion.

    If you really want to read up on some wild shit, check out the topic of "mud giants/fossils."  This is when the flat-earther (or other fucked-up-in-the-head individual, but usually a flat-earther) believes that certain geological formations are actually dormant titans who once roamed the earth.

    They don't stop there. The think natural formations are as well. Take this pictoral curiosity from LePetersWorld, for example.  I sometimes look at this account just for a few good laughs.
