The world is round, the earth is flat.

It’s not something you fricking “believe” in. It’s a scientific fact. This isn’t a debate on whether or not you belive in God or the flying spaghetti monster. I swear people give me fricking cancer.

Some would beg to differ.

First, and this is burying the lead which I'll get to next, but I would take 18-24 year olds giving a nonsensical answer to mean they're fricking with the poll takers rather than they're fricking stupid.

So it's not a scientifically constructed and executed poll but a voluntary poll conducted on the type of people that chose to seek out a site where they could answer polls? That should lead to representative samples...

The internet has the amazing effect of making some people smarter and others dumber.
I think it does more of the latter.

Sure the earth isn't a perfect sphere, but it is actually quite smooth depending on scale.
Smoothness not withstanding the earth doesn't have a uniform diameter like a perfect sphere
If you wanted to get really technical it would be considered an oblate spheroid or ellipsoid

On that basis, seems like 33% millenials got it right?

I've read that the Earth is as smooth as a billiards ball, relative to its size.

And all the world is football shaped. It's just for me to.kick in space.

Definitely not a kid. I guess some people can't do more than one thing at a time. I can. Thanks for trying though.

Every person I see on YouTube that's trying to prove that the Earth is flat looks north of 50 years old.
