Remember the Flat Earth Society (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=424638)?

Well, just in case you didn't find them entertaining enough, behold... the Square Earth theory (http://bb.1asphost.com/squareearth/)! :p

Wow, not only do they know they Earth is square, but they have proof! Not only that, but they also know that my computer clock has the wrong time. These people truly are the genii that they think they are.

Actually the Earth is a slightly squished round thing, not perfectly round.
It's a Oblate Spheroid.

That's taken from some joke site about the square earth society.

Just in case someone took it seriously (there's always one) it's not real.

Or is it...

When they say square, do they actually mean cubic?

judging from their proofs I'd say they don't.

Man, that must have taken a while to make, these people took the joke rather far.

TIMECUBE! w00t!
Everything is a four-sided cube and you are the son of a fish!
An open mind is a slop bucket,
"THINK CUBIC".
The Time Cube only offends
the educated stupid - but there
are so damn many of them.
Academia teaches the evil of
singularity to human cubics -
born of opposites.
I am flabbergasted that the
"big brother" hired pedants
can brainwash and indoctrinate
the powerful antipode human
mind to ignore the simple math
of 4 simultaneous 24 hour days within a single rotation of Earth,
to worship one and trash three.
Magnificient evil job by teachers.

Their forum is still there, though... And it seems they've moved:
