Today, I told my long-distance friend about the flooding in Florida due to the Supermoon. He's a Flat Earther and despite proof, denies the coincidence because he believes the moon and gravity aren't what we're taught. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I had to explain to my husband that the Earth is not flat. He didn’t believe me. FML
Today, I went on a date with a guy who seemed really nice. However, halfway through the date, he started talking about how he was a flat-earther, and believed that the moon landing was faked. Oh, and that birds aren't real. I had to endure another hour of his conspiracy theories before I could finally escape. FML
Today, I had to explain to my boyfriend that a tornado is not the same thing as a hurricane. I couldn't convince him, and he still won't talk to me. FML
Today, I found out my girlfriend of 3 years actually believes that the Earth is flat. FML
Today, I told a friend I had become more religious lately. He immediately started mocking me for being a "stupid creationist bigot." When I told him how offensive that was, he acted bewildered and started condescendingly lecturing me about how "science has proven God does not exist." FML
Today, I found out that one of my colleagues believes that aliens built the pyramids. No amount of logical reasoning or evidence has had any effect on his argument of, "but you can't prove they didn't." FML
Today, I finally got to see my favorite aunt after months of her living far away with her new boyfriend. She now believes the Earth is flat, gravity is fake, the government is run by reptiles, and that vaccines are the devil themselves. She won't stop trying to convince me of her conspiracies. FML
Today, I was telling my girlfriend about how my parents are flying out to Japan today on vacation. She was shocked at how short the flight will be, because "It's on the other side of the world." We live in the USA, and it seems I'm dating a Flat Earther. FML
Today, my mom saw a picture of the moon and asked me what "those big spots" were. She actually thought the craters were continents and tried correcting me when I told her what they were. Then I almost got into trouble for being disrespectful. FML
Today, two of my friends condemned me for being "narrow-minded", because I couldn't help but laugh at the thought that someone would believe mermaids actually exist. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

What an idiot, if he was smart he would know the world is a cube.

It literally boggles my mind how folks can be this thick-headed. All the evidence, all the science--do they need to be strapped into a rocket and shot into space themselves?

If the world is round, how does it fit on a two dimensional map?
shadowl 11
It doesn't, actually. Almost all two dimensional maps misrepresent the earth in some way or another.

Don't you come here with your round earth lies.

Can anyone guess who this nut job is? I'll get you for this, Enslaved!
cootiequeen4444 11
is this Norwegian metal band Enslaved or Illuminati probably racist "Enslaved"? I googled to see if the Metal band were flat earthers because it seems so un-scandinavian to be like and came across this super weird rap music video by some white guy. idk if he actually goes by Enslaved or if that was part of the video's title. didn't watch much of it but it was definitely conspiracy theory shit. due to the trippiness of it I think maybe people that are flat earthers are maybe not stupid. just perpetually high. maybe if you give them taco bell they will chill and not rant at you til they pop a vein (wrong kind of high but whatever. I'd be more chill if given a taco. even a shitty taco bell one)
cootiequeen4444 11
oh shit. OP'S username is Enslaved. I googled all for naught. Or maybee it is I whom is the high one. or... or... is this the work of the illumanti. is OP one of..of... them !? *raises suggestive brow*

You don't have to take him into space to see the curvature of the Earth. Just drive through Kansas.

It's impossible to argue with stupidity.

Instead of trying to prove him wrong, ask him to prove he's right...

The fact people still believe that is what makes me suicidal
