We, the CES, have bring to world in peace again : It turns out both The Flat Earth Society and the Round Earth Society were right, because Earth is a cylinder. AtOr to say the least, there is no evidence that Earth is not a cylinder.
After years of discussion to reunite our components, the height-greater-than-width Cylinder Earth society and the width-greater-than-height Cylinder Earth society, we agreed that height and width are equal, thus solving our conflict.
Join the Cylinder Earth Society ! Be Cylinder !
/edit : Why did I believe this could be original and funny - Of course the Internet already came with it : https://twitter.com/cylinderearths[^]

Agreed. I flat out refuse to believe this balogna!

I strongly, and vehemently argue that Earth is actually an inverted triangle, with a dent on one side.
Oh, and um, I don't belong to any societies, sorry.

Sounds like you're creative enough to start your own.

Earth is more like a canister.

That would certainly help cartographers.

Made me think of the way from Eon by Greg Bear - which BTW is a good read if you're into SF.

Sólstafir - Hula[^]
The Icelandic Sólstafir is releasing a new album soon, and just like their previous album, this one gets very good reviews.
When their previous album was released I couldn't get into it, but with these new positive reviews I decided to give it another listen.
And this time it clicked with me.
The entire (previous) album is awesome, but this song really stood out.
Especially the part between 3:50 and 4:40, with the soprano in the background, can go on endless repeat.
The video was shot in Lithuania, at the Hill of Crosses[^] near the city of Šiauliai, which they noticed during a tour.
Can't wait for the new album

The first 50 seconds sound like they came straight from the game series, Diablo.
After listening, a craving for Diablo 2 has surfaced, and I'm longing for home. 
A really nice song.

I remember I played a Diablo 2 demo once.
Back in the day I used to buy a gaming magazine which came with a CD (and later two and even later DVD) containing game demo's.
That magazine went out of business long ago and I now read another one that I also sometimes bought when I was young.
Back then I didn't have the money to buy games and now I don't have the time to play them
It still makes for a nice read in the bathroom though
Game demo's are a thing of the past though, they've been replaced by unfinished early access games.

I fully agree with her message, but, how to say this as nice as possible, I don't like how she's saying it.
Probably because she's just a teen talking truth to power, I'd sh*t my pants too
Full respect for her.
It's cool with the "Right here, right now" part though
I've seen Fatboy Slim two or so years ago.
Cool party, but I'm getting too old to be partying all night long (the support act started at 00:00 and Fatboy Slim played from 02:00 to 04:00) 
Fun fact, back when Praise You was a hit on MTV, in 1998, I always thought she said "I have to praise you like a shoe."
I always found it odd, but I guessed shoes deserved some praise for carrying us around all day long.
It wasn't until about ten years later that I heard she wasn't saying "a shoe", but "I should"
Now I just sing along "a shoe!" for the fun of it

The other day I was inspired to look up some information about "The Flat Earth Society".
Then it occurred to me: Wouldn't a suitable name for a mountain climbing group be "The Steep Earth Society"?
I searched the net to se if anyone had chosen that name, but found none. I am not into mountain climbing myself, yet I wish there was a group by that name.

Is there a Horizontal Earth Society?
And is a Horizontal Earth flat or round?
