Whut.

This is all over social media, I cannot believe there are people still like this on the planet. Of course, Donald Trump may be the Republican nominee for president, so I shouldn't be surprised.

not the only one. http://observer.com/2016/01/tila-tequila-truly-believes-the-earth-is-flat-and-wont-stop-yelling-about-it-on-twitter/

Fantastic.  Poor Tila, frantically bouncing from one inanity to the other in the hopes that she can come up with something outrageous enough to get her some attention.  She should get a dog.  Dogs are awesome.  

Is anyone else seeing Neil DeGrasse Tyson's takedown of B.O.B?  

[THERetroGamerNY]

It still boggles my mind that there is a whole flat Earth society with active membership...

[laPapessaGiovanna]

If Columbus thought that earth is flat maybe the USA wouldn't exist...nor BoB...nor whats-his-name-tequila...

[Whoosh]

So this is one of those situations where I am totally justified in saying all opinions are NOT equal and no one will challenge that statement, right?  

[VaSportsMom]

The perfect use for this

[THERetroGamerNY]

Not even Columbus thought the Earth was flat. In fact, nobody in ancient history ever did, outside of fringe idiots.

It is the most baffling-stupid modern thing.

Assholes don't understand science. Assholes only understand/believe what they can see. Assholes can't see the curvature cause they can't see that far. Have assholes ever looked at the photos of earth from space? Pretty damned round, ain't it?

Duh, those photos are photoshopped. And we never went to the moon, that's all a hoax.

Can we put them all in a low flying plane with binoculars and make them fly around and around and around (they can refuel in flight) until they figure it out?  I mean really...

According to the Flat Earth folks the instrument rated pilots have to be clued in to the fact that the earth is flat so you know they don't fly off and to make sure flighs take as long as they are "supposed" to so the round earth people don't get wize.

 

I love a good, ridiculous conspiracy theory.

Just when I think I've heard everything, someone comes along and claims something even stupider.  Wow.

And so was Elvis's military service.  All those photos were taken on a a movie stage, dontcha know.

(Yes, I've actually read this.)

“Flat Earth” rapper B.o.B has even more extreme, dangerous views: He promotes Holocaust denial

[doggie]

all it takes is a stick and feet to check the curvature of the earth.

Oh my...

she needs a doctor, and some children's science books on tape since let's be honest, that lady isn't reading a damn thing.

[roddma]

Maybe it's a good thing I've never heard of this guy Im not into tap. I have a distant cousin who believes we never touched the moon in 1969.

[sisterwives]

Tila Tequila is so weird and I'm not sure if she's joking or not. She seems too over the top to be real.

My husband believes the moon thing - I've learned never to mention it as, once he starts there's no shutting him up.  Even he thinks the flat earth thing is crazy.

Interesting piece

Before I clicked on this, I thought it was Kanye. I never really know whether Tila Tequila is attention whoring, stupid, just plain batshit crazy, or trolling everyone. Not sure if serious.
