The earth is round. Like a pizza.

I think it's probably shaped like an upside down bowl.

The issue is that you can do the same experiment all over the world and come to the same result.
But the ancient Greeks could not do that experiment all over the world

bullshite. There are two "suns". Antarctica just has it's own mini "sun". Also, mirrors and trickery are afoot.

This didn’t just start happening, back in high school algebra class the teacher told us that pie are square. Hell, every pie I ever saw was round.

Pythagorean theorem by itself will tell you it’s not round

Given they were a seafaring people, doesn’t take a fricking genius to figure that out.

Here I just recreated the experiment on my bathroom floor with coke cans.
Obviously this proves the lamp is millions of miles away and my bathroom floor is curved
You deserve a lot of applause for that one.

Obviously the light source has to be far enough away to be practically infinitely far.

The rays of light in your picture have already encountered objects and been refracted. Plus you are observing them from straight below.
