Flat earthers, what’s on the bottom of the flat Earth?
Edit: how do we “know” the bottom half isn’t round? Like half a lemon that’s been cut in half

The flat earth is supported on the back of four elephants, who in turn are standing on a giant cosmic turtle that is flying through space.
It is speculated the turtle is looking for a partner. When that happy day happens, that will be the big bang.
It is of critical importance, therefor, to know the sex of the giant turtle.
Am I the only one who thinks it’s weird how Great A’Tuin gets all the chelonaut attention, while the elephants get ignored?
Well, the Dwarves give plenty of attention to the Fifth Elephant.
But turtles make no banging noise. It’s loud panting or wheezing noises. And it goes on for quite a while, so that you could maybe get a little envious…
Even with their shells?
Not clonking?
Well, humans “bang” without banging either, so.
LOL whatever they do, they do it slow and steady.
I have watched one at the zoo, where a child had touched it and so it turned it’s head around to look what’s happened. Slow and steady. It took a little more than a minute.
Hey, my little box turtle can really move when he’s attacking a snail! Poor little 🐌 👻 is like, “He came out of nowhere!”
Before anyone asks what’s under the turtle: It’s turtles all the way down.
Here’s the weird thing: In terms of the beginning of the universe, it could well be the case that it’s universes all the way back.
That said, “back” indicates a straight line, and since time doesn’t extend past the beginning, at least, not directly, that line most definitely isn’t straight, unlike an infinite stack of turtles.
Ok - now i have to go Google because I’m not sure if you made this up or if this is something that they actually believe.

I don’t know about the big bang, but the elephants and turtle are Terry Pratchett. Discworld, Pratchett’s most well-known setting, is a disc shaped world on the back of four elephants on the back of a turtle.
It’s a whole quotation, from The Colour of Magic maybe? You’ve heard of “banging” to refer to sexual congress, or do the kids not know that one these days? So, Spaceturtle-on-Spaceturtle action would be quite a big bang, and also a pune, or play on words.
I could murder a curry right now.
It’s the description of the the Discworld.
Though let’s be real, Discworld makes just a hair more sense then the flat earther extended universe.
