Did you know that you can sail from the USA to India in a straight line without touching land?

^ Cool

Well, technically you can't draw a straight line on the surface of a sphere. All lines over the surface are curved.

^ You do live in Germany, don't you.

You're posting facebook type shyte with backpipe backing you up.

One really doesn't have to live in Germany to see it.

only if you believe the earth is round and if the forthcoming predicted US election result is to believed a significant proportion don't

Round eh

My girth, pool and pond about is almost round, my grinder (pepper, steady) golf is 19th wholly round and music entertainment Holy Ground

My squeeze is round in general but ovoid in other parts.

I think you meant spherical but wrong again not a Lultard unscientific research .

I a perfect sheper alpen be no Himalayers nor Pennines to protect Lancashire from Tykes!

It is closer to Jeffrey donaldson a flawed dimpled orange dipping in places.

Rather like those who spin yarns here , bulge around the middle for diddle

Yes, Earth is an oblate spheroid, which means it's spherical but not perfectly round. It's slightly bulged at the equator and flattened at the poles, with the diameter at the equator being 43 kilometers larger than at the poles. The Earth's shape is also not perfect because it's spinning, which causes it to bulge in the middle.

Sorry to triangulate I'm just and old square
