Wait, first you like triangles, now you think the Earth is flat? Come on man!!! Either you're really bored or really funny because no one can be that stupid.

Earth is not flat, but round. In the 13-1400's people thought the Earth was flat and that if you went too far into the ocean, you would fall off the Earth and into oblivion, and obviously die. Christopher Colombus discovered it was round when he landed in the US in 1492.

The Earth is flat? Oh, no! Now I have to watch out for the edge so that I won't fall off of it again!

People once thought the earth was flat, but some sages knew better. Erastosthenes knew it is a sphere and measured its girth as 25,000 miles. That is close to current figures.

Erm...mate, the Earth isn't flat; they've proved that centuries ago. I could've sworn that it was round for some reason. And if you mean topographically, the Earth is covered with oceans and mountains and canyons and crevices and a lot of other stuff.

It's flat because it's easier to do anything flat that rounded!!!
Imagine if your house flour is rounded... do you believe it would be easy to do it?! And even so... do you believe it would be useful for anything!
Flat is good... as the ocean! :) LOLOL... Just ask to a surfer!

Have a nice day

Because you have never been in an air plane or out to sea to notice it is not flat.

Simply because how else would it be able to sit atop the four elephants that reside on the shell of Great A'Tuin, the Turtle!?
