You cannot be /b/. /b/ is everything, yet /b/ is nothing.

Wow you just blew my fucking mind wide open.

I suggest you:

/b/ all that you can /b/.

I have read the FAQ, and I have thought of something just recently. Have you ever flown to Japan? I have, and it didn't take that long (I live in California.) By your theories and logic, I would have to fly all the way to the other side of the planet to get there. If memory serves correctly, the only thing I flew over was water...no continents. Which means I flew going the other direction. So can you say to object this?
I have yet to hear a response regarding the above statements? Care to elaborate?

IT'S A CONSPIRACY YOU DID FLY OVER CONTINENTS BUT THEY WERE PAINTED BLUE

Can none of you FEer's give me an answer on this. All I've seen on this post is nonsense. This just goes to prove my point that when asked for solid proof that the earth is flat you can give none. I find it more then a bit convenente that the only person that could ever "attempt" to prove the earth was flat died 150yrs ago, did not keep very good records, and the one object that could provide just a little scientific proof that the earth was flat has been lost in the sands of time and no one knows how to make another one. I ask for proof using math and physics, what do i get, some jerk critiquing my writting style and some other guy telling me I should be focusing on my work. then some nonsense about this /b/ guy. Not one of you FEer's even attempted to answer my question. I can back up my claim with the use of physics (what limited knowledge i have) but at least I would try.

None of the FE'ers want to give you answers. Seriously, get over yourself. Every day, 5 to ten people will ask the same questions you are asking. Just loom at the topics. This has all been discussed thousands of times before. Your questions are all of a very basic nature, so it's up to you to go and find the answers.

The FAQ and other pinned threads on this board have detailed mathematical explanations of FET. It's not any easier for us to explain it to you than it is for you to find the answers yourself. Stop blaming other people for your own laziness.

After analysis of your writing style for spelling accuracy and grammar, it appears that you consumed approximately a fifth of vodka between starting your paragraph and ending it.

Either you write really, really slow or you drink really, really fast. I am intrigued and must ask which one it is.

Any excuse to avoid the point in hand. Your grammar is worse than his anyway, so who are you to comment about it? Precisely. Now go back to your fantasy. While you're at it book into a mental asylum.

Then how about you give me a link. Like i said I have looked over and over the FAQs and found nothing that can come close to proving that the earth is flat. Also is this not a discussion board, does that not mean that new people will come and ask the same questions that have others have asked. If it is truly your belief that the earth is flat then you should be willing to defend that idea everyday.

Are you serious?  Tell me something...  are you seriously trying to say that if I came to you every single day, seven days a week and asked you to explain something... say the reason wood burns, and continued to ask for the same explanation every single day, no matter what you did, that you wouldn't get tired of it?

I have to call bullshit on that.

Which means I flew going the other direction. So can you say to object this?

ok, so i, for the last 3 hours, have been looking through your forums and humoring myself with the debates. it got to a point where i had to make a user name because i was getting so fed up with this. but i came across this thread and i'd really really like someone to explain this question above. i'm open minded, but i'm just as closed minded as all of you. i have my own beliefs as do you and just as it's hard for you to see outside the box, it's hard for me to see what you believe. but i'm trying to see.

no more BS posts about spelling errors or people being fags or whatever. if i'd read over this explanation before, i must have misunderstood it. so please someone explain how someone can fly from California to japan in a VERY short time as opposed to (yes i read about the fake routes and stuff) flying around everything else... it's all water.

so by your theories, the person flying the plane went a different route because they would fall off the edge of the earth, correct? but did they fly SUPER fast to make all the passengers believe they went straight from cali to japan? if so... please explain the gas rationing of flying across the entire planet? i'm not trying to pick a fight, but he has a good point. i'd just like to understand how this should work?

and, seriously, if you say something silly like "the windows on the planes make you see water" or some other sci-fi stuff a 5th grader would write in a book report... ugh.

and watch as 2 or 3 (or more!) of you mock my last sentence and do it anyway for a laugh. but go ahead. i have a sense of humor. ^-^v

Well obviously the government invented time travel to slow the world around the plane down so it only APPEARED to be a short travel. And the windows are actually tv panels displaying false images.

No, the FE map has been described as similar to the UN symbol - like a polar projection with the North pole at the centre and the south pole as a ring around the edge.  Flying from the US to Japan is achieved in the same was as in RET - by flying over the Pacific ocean.  Search for flight times, this has been discussed before in great detail.
