The models of the earth. We are going to ignore the fact that every globe is round and the map of the earth is flat for a second to ponder the point of it all.

Did people before google, before mapquest really consult their globes for directions to italian East African? I mean what’s the deal?

They are classy for a study or parlor but I don’t see the point

Me neither. Earth is flat, so a round globe is just misleading.

What's the deal with fern? It doesn't have any fruit, it doesn't have any wood so you can't burn it or build anything with it. It's like grass that doesn't know what it's doing. "Oh hey, that's a nice basket of retarded grass you have hanging there in your office buddy."

Greenland is usually a little door to allow you to hide stuff inside. Valuables, drugs, a pistol, et cetera.

No one ever looks at Greenland.

That’s classy. Probably pairs well with some brandy and a cigarette while conducting bidness

If you don’t have an antique globe like this one in your home office, what are you even doing? Mine opens and holds liquor.

This is a much cooler and more accurate depiction of our planet. I have one hanging on the wall in my office.

So......these are the thoughts that keep you up at night?

I wish pondering the modern purpose of globes was my biggest worry.
