I just thought of a great theory that explains everything. When I went to that party, I was abducted by aliens. They have created a fake Earth and fake high school to study me and my reactions. This certainly explains cafeteria food.

About This Quote

It’s an old joke about alien abduction, but it has some truth to it. When we were children, we all thought the earth was flat and that if we went far enough, we would eventually fall off the edge. Then a few years later, a friend of a friend went to a party and said he thought he saw a spaceship going over the edge of the earth. At first, we laughed at him because he was obviously drunk and hallucinating.

But then it turned out he wasn’t hallucinating. He was seeing something that most of us can’t see. He was seeing proof that there is a solid earth with an edge, which means there is an edge to our universe as well.
