Have you never heard of the flat tennis ball conspiracy?

Easy to prove to; make a photo of your tennis-bal, print it. See, flat balls

Wouldn't that be a Frisbee?
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

Is that some sort of injury? Something akin to Tennis Elbow?

Funny thing about the flat earth conspiracies... all you have to do is work for the government to know they aren't advanced enough to pull that hoax off.

Would you have got the first one?

Probably, with a little time - but I only glanced at it before noticing the "cancelled" bit - I'd got "inundated" as an anagram of "untied and" and "and united", was thinking how to get "weight" related items out of that, and hadn't noticed it was nine letters, not eight yet...

I think the first one was perfectly good./ I am annoyed with myself for not getting it.

I just spent the last 5 minutes trying to think of a word for "mixed metaphor" that made any sense,
any sense at all, before givinig up and clicking below. (Headslap)
One morning I shot an elephant in my pajamas. How he got in my pajamas, I don't know.

Untied and united against weight (8)
Apologies I'm going to cancel this one, as I got the word from a TV programme, but after some googling it turns out the word is relatively new and not in all dictionaries. Will post a new one above.
Ans: Antigram - Am anagram that has an opposing meaning to the original word.
Against - Anti
Weight - Gram
Untied and United - Antigram

Mostly. i just finished decorating my modest little tree- It's the first one in who knows how many years. Only the tip is a little bare. That's a job for the 3D printer!
This is what I found online:
- Tradidional pointy tips. Nah. Could have bought that if I wanted one.
- Angels, yawn.
- Stars, in all sizes and shapes. Boring, except of course the eight sided star of chaos.
- A mostly naked Santa (mind bleach, quick!)
- A Dalek
- How about this one?[^]
Edit: Just downloaded it and started printing the lower half. Dang, that thing is a big as a basketball. so I scaled it down to 20%. If all goes well, I can start printig the upper half before I go to work and paint it in the evening.

The thin arms and legs will be a problem, otherwise I would print one. I already have Bob printed out (2D) for a little trip, but that will have to wait until spring and until I have a new camera to document the event.

If I was making a bob I would print the head/body, hands and feet separately and then either print the legs and arms or just use wire. Glue can then be used to stick the bits together.
