When we finally started covering things that hadn't been covered in england, it was mostly american history and american culture (with a healthy dose of 'america is best' added).

North America is best America.

Ah. That made me think about "politically correct" (read: not "America is best") world history. It did a great job of teaching me about the world at large... I remember we had a mock trial for Columbus. It was all going fine until the part eligible for this thread occurred. At a heated moment, a (male) classmate of mine yelled out loud at a (female) "attorney" on the other side:
"WOMAN!"
The stunned silence that followed was the best moment of that entire class ever.

Since it was Columbus's time, that is actually acceptable.

Okay must reread history book, must make sure i'm right...

"3 times 3 isn't 6, 3 times 3 is 12"

Said with a tone of 'know it all' sarcistic superiority. It was in school, we had only been learning times tables for 2 years.

[Loud Whispers]

"3 times 3 isn't 6

Correct!

3 times 3 is 12

YOU SHUT YOUR MOUTH!

IMPUDENT CHILD!

3 TIMES 3 IS SEVEN.

EVERYONE KNOWS THAT.

"The earth is not a planet."

The quote is in reply #9, near the end of the post.

I also looked through the posts and found this retort
"Sarah Palin sees Russia from her house"

Also from the same thread: "The universe does not exist"

I figured that out with this line.

North is Hubwards, South is Rimwards, East is Turnwise, and West is Widdershins.

Actually, no. That's what makes this so mind-shattering.

Q: "What about Lunar Eclipses?"

A: A celestial body, known as the antimoon, passes between the sun and moon. This projects a shadow upon the moon.

Q: "What is underneath the Earth?"

A: This is unknown. Some believe it to be just rocks, others believe the Earth rests on the back of four elephants and a turtle.
 
Q: "Are you saying NASA had Photoshop in the 1960s?"

A: Of course not. Back then the pictures taken were of far lower quality and were likely produced using analog means. As the years went by, it's also possible that NASA spent some of its funding on developing more advanced computers and imaging software for creating pictures.
 
PLEASE NOTE: This means that pictures confirming the roundness or flatness of the Earth DO NOT CONSTITUTE VALID PROOF.
 
Q: "No one could possibly pull off such a conspiracy successfully."

A: Actually, they could.

I think I've read that before, and I'm 99% sure it's sarcasm. The four elephants and a turtle thing really gives it away.

[Hanslanda]

It is either sarcasm or willful ignorance... So... It's sarcasm, for the sake of my blood pressure.

[Kamin]

I always thought this was fake or sarcastic. Am I wrong to continue believing so?

Yes! The forums don't exist! Please let it be so... But seriously, let's all agree that it's sarcasm, as I have no intention of using Hanslanda as a blood cannon anytime soon.
