Why doesn't our furniture fall upside down when it rotates all the way around?

That's enough man. Time for bed. It will make sense in the morning.

Because the Earth is flat.

So is Earth II and Schmerth.

Florida is also flat.

It does. You just fall with it so you don't even notice.

That axis also precesses and wobbles...

That does a lot for long-term climate trends

The angle of the dangle is inversely disproportionate to the heat of the earth's crust.

Because of the mountains pushing all the air down on us, it keeps things in place. We'd all be able to fly if it weren't for those darn mountains.

Yea, but like who greases the earth bearings??
Do they use graphite, or like actual grease??
How often do the earth bearings need to be greased??
And how do they replace the earth bearings when like they get old and stuff??

So many questions... so little weed

You rang?

Everyone knows that if you was on the surface of a basketball and Curly threw that mowfow up on his middle fanger and spun the shite out of it, you would shoot of the surface quicker than cat jumps off a hot tin roof. Now, now. However, as to the predicament of Earths gravity, I recommend reading Sir Isaac Newton.
