Molly's Monday #12


Yesterday I was listening to my humans talk about people who believe our world is flat. Astounding, miao!

About 2% of Americans are flat-earth believers, according to a 2018 study conducted by YouGov. Miao. Last year the population in the U.S. was about 326 million. I'm saying that everyone counted is considered an American. No arguments, please. Purrrrrrrr.

Two percent or about 325 million people in our country believe the world is flat. Miaaaao!

I wonder if the flat-earth believers have another name for Earth. After all, the word earth means globe, sphere, orb. Round, for pity's sake.

If we lived in a flat world, I don't think we would have balls or anything round.

What kind of shape is the flat world? Is it square? Rectangle? A triangle? Diamond shaped? Miao, a shape with 12 uneven shapes?

Where are the edges of the flat world?

Yawwwwwwwwn.

Nap time. See you next Monday. Miao.

  3. The "edges" are in Antarctica.
    How do I know this? The BBC has this great April Fool's tradition where they present some out there idea straight. One year it was flat earth. And they were talking about this woman who went in search of the edge and was never heard from again.

    But if you think about it, Antarctica makes perfect sense. Consider how many people have been lost in the wilds and cold.

    1. Miao, miao. Maybe everyone looking for the edges fall into the Bermuda triangle. Miao, miao.

  4. The same people who believe the Earth is flat, think Donald Trump is a good president. This illness is called retardation.

  5. Hey Molly, I love that you're a cynic. This is why my parents wouldn't let me go to public school. However, I'm intrigued by the idea of the world as a rhombus. like a baseball diamond. Play ball. Game 4 on tonight and the Dodgers have some 'splaining to do.

  6. Unfortunately some humans are so full of fear that they make up all sorts of nonsense so they don't ever have to be brave.
