#1: Round!
#2: Square!
#1: Round!
#2: Square square square! How can you even say anything else?
#1: Because it isn’t square, the world is ROUND!
#2: What can possibly give you that idea? Look, the ground is flat, see, straight, from here to there.
#1: It only appears to be flat. It is an optical illusion.
#2: It appears flat because it IS!
#1: Have you actually been to the end of the world to confirm this supposed flatness?
#2: Of course not! I don’t want to fall off, end up in space.
#1: Then how can you say for sure the world is square? I know that you can go around and around, and that makes the world circular.
#2: Oh, so you are telling me that you have been to the end of the world? I don’t believe it.
#1: Well, not exactly…
#2: Ah-ha! I knew it! You don’t know what you are talking about.
#1: No, what I meant was I have not explored this area yet, but I recall being someplace else, much larger than here…
#2: Whoa, back up. Some place else? There is no some place else, this is the world, this is all there is.
#1: No, there is plenty more out there. The world is a very big place. And don’t give me that look! Come on, okay, well, have you ever seen me here before?
#2: No, but like you said, the world is a very big place.
#1: You’ve never seen me before because I wasn’t here before. I was…some place else.
#2: You were here, you just never ran into me before.
#1: No, I am telling you, I was some place else. There is more to the world than just your little corner here.
#2: Oh, I see, one of those conspiracy theorists, huh? I suppose next you are going to tell me there are other worlds and life out there in space.
#1: Well, look out there, look up…how can you think we are the only ones in the whole universe?
#2: I knew it…you are pretty unstable there buddy, just back up, stay away from me.
#1: Use your eyes! Look, look there! See it, something moving out there. What do you call that?
#2: An optical illusion.
#1: It is not! It is right there in front of your eyes as plain as day!
#2: Just like the flat ground is.
#1: It is NOT flat! The world is ROUND!
#2: Square!
#1: Round!
#2: Square!
