Random musings and general banter.

Unless they are also faked ...

Yep, by all of the photo satellites of the Chinese, the Indians, ESA, NASA, the UK.

P.S. the Apollo laser range finder to measure Moon distance placed there, and the rediscovered Russian one, put there remotely, both still being used.
(The Moon is moving away at a few mm/cm per year. I read somewhere this means that in 400 million years, there will no longer be solar eclipses on Earth, as the Moon will then be far enough away to not fully block the Sun anymore.

By a weird cosmic coincidence, during humanities current existence the Moon is 400 times smaller than the Sun, but is also about 400 times closer to Earth than the Sun. This means that from Earth, the Moon and Sun appear to be roughly the same size in the sky, hence total solar eclipses occasionally. It is a complete coincidence!)

The Moon has no atmosphere and is devoid of intelligent life, afawk.
Just like IW3.
There, back on-topic!

It was because somebody had posted about them not giving details on the pan set

That was me.

Agreed, they give very little detail.
Which is strange, because that's the one thing that shopping TV can do quickly, live, respond to viewer interactive questions with demos and live slots, that flat internet websites can't do.

The defunct Seen on TV had a WhatsApp channel, great idea, viewers could ask live questions.

Does IW3 still have the [email protected] email that the previous IW incarnations used to have? You could ask questions about the Karaoke machine details, if they still do.

Just come in from going to town.

What did you buy? Or just browsing/food, etc.?

Got some summer clothes If we get summer, Then had a Burger, Mum and Dad are GPs so only tend to have things like that when out

tbh I was slightly poking fun at the whole thing

I expect if you took flat earthers up in a space vehicle that could slowly rise from earth's atmosphere into space, with no interruption in their view, thus revealing the curve of the earth, they would most likely still come up with some sort of 'fake' rationale

I'd better leave it there as yes, we're deviating a fair bit from selly telly!

Jeremy looking good today in the fashion show…

 

[galesgal57]

The sleeves and bottoms have hems - wow what a bonus!

 

[Professor Branestawm]

The moon landing being faked is one conspiracy I wouldn't be overly surprised about if it were proved true. I'm kind of 50/50 on it.

It would’ve needed more than 40,000 to all keep a secret. Heck I can’t even get two of my mates to keep secret what I got the third for his birthday!

Think we've had Summer, it was 4 hottish days last week.

When you go to Uni try not to eat all the fast food and take-away delights all in one go!


Last one was healthy!

I know, just making the point to all readers re. that and similar other evidence that would have to have multiple agencies, thousands of people all similarly faking, independently.

Just like flat earthers say *all* NASA, ESA, Chinese, Indian, Russian live/video from Space is all fake, either CGI in space, or ground studios, models.

I used to think flat earthers were just making an intellectual argument to show how to argue inversely and make a point about absolute proof, question things more clearly, accurately and understand science.

Then I read they did exactly what you said, take them up in aircraft, show the curve/globe. The globe-denier said it was the glass window causing the view of the curve of the earth! You're tempted to open the cabin door and shove him out to see it, sans window, to make the point!

You can even see it on the horizon out at sea. The denier said it was an optical illusion , or faulty camera or they did experiment and were 'surprised' that the horizontal laser light beam disappeared or moved above the initial point on a distant board when it was moved over a longer distance. They said it was uneven surface, despite using flat/same height ground.

Did you see the three geniuses, repeating, believing and quoting other flawed 'evidence', on ITV This Morning years ago. They were basically indoctrinated cult members of this 'belief'. I had thought they were intellectually arguing an opposite point of view, like how barristers or debaters are trained to argue both sides, but no!

I also read that some flat earthers believe that Google maps is evidence of a flat 2D earth!

Ignorance is bliss, I guess.

I’m going to Sound a strange teen, But I’m not really into McDonalds, KFC, Pizza Hut or pizza takeaway places.

Yeah I had a burger for lunch, but went into a Pub, and had a pint of Coke

Fair enough. You'll need decent digs, kitchen, willpower, avoid peer pressure and the right social group.

For me it wasn't fast food, more kebabs, Chinese, curry houses, and pizza take-away or for taking home, etc, that we'd frequent after lectures or on social outings!
There was no Deliveroo in those days!

Parents have rented a place for me I don’t think they want me around Digs, Which is one reason I was interested in that Microwave Grill, but guess what found something simular cheaper

tbh I expect if you could take them far enough away from earth to show the entire globe, they would still shout fake. I went through a spell a couple of years back watching some YT vids featuring flat earthers and pro-globe folk or whatever you'd call them. Undoubtedly some of them are just arguing the point to make a living from YT etc, however some evidently believe it. Then you get those who break away from the cult as you call it and see the light.

There's a classic clip on YT where a globe denier sets up an experiment to show the earth is flat ... and the experiment ends up proving the globe

People are going to think Ovthemasons is his actual surname. Highlights so far…Ovzermaisons has shaved his upper beard to a band 4 instead of a 6.. And the second…he presents a low rent plastic dummy (No…not Yiannis Morgan)…security camera, which isn’t one really, but a cheap plastic solar light. Still waiting on the third….Oh…CHANEL (Tunnel) perfume to follow….

 

[galesgal57]

Love Ether, ooh missus - sounds like something you would buy from Ann Summers (not that I would know)

 

[Emiily J]

Cheapo perfumes, Most Ladies, will only use there favourite

 

[Duke of Cheese]

Hammy mentioned they just don’t have the warehouse space for bigger goods. Hence the eternal conveyor belt of the £9.99s…

Also, this new ignore feature is great. Before the username stayed on screen with their post obscured. But now name and content is removed for you from the main thread.

 

[HughTwo]

I just don't know which fan to buy - not only do some have blades, not only do some not have blades, not only do some have water mist jets........but you're best sending the air upwards......unless you're best sending it downwards.....or forward.........
I'll need to be quick though, they're flying out the door on three flexis. Maybe I should multi-buy - Muriel did.

 

[HughTwo]

Mike Ovthemasons is selling Chanel for a tenner! He used to wear it but "has moved into other fragrances"......I reckon he's a Gammon man now. I was smelling of Gammon last night - my local does it with eggs or pineapple, or one of both - they're very flexi

Utter bullshyte time with Mason.

Comparing £260 mens scent to £9.99 knock off attempt that looks like it was siphoned out of the IW bogs and will no doubt last about a nanosecond into the evening.
