When I was in like grade 10ish in high school one of our teachers showed the class this meme or a similar one and one of the other kids went "wait, does that happen?" in a genuinely confused tone. Almost the entire class just stared laughing and the teacher had to explain that no, it doesn't happen because the earth is not, in fact, flat.
