He's not going to be mean. He has no clue where this guy's from.
"Iii won't discount that as a possibility because the multiverse is infinite so who knows what the laws of physics are like in other places - but a planet doesn't have to be flat for people to not fall off. Think about it this way..."
He throws the Earth ball up and nearly drops it when he tries to catch it because he can't look casual and cool while doing anything. Still, he carries on.
"If a version of Earth was genuinely flat, wouldn't there still need to be some invisible force pulling us back to the ground? If there wasn't, everyone would just fly or float off every time they jumped."
He shrugs a shoulder.
"If there's an invisible force tugging everyone and everything to the ground anyway, that makes it so the water in the oceans doesn't float in the air, why would a planet have to be flat for that force to pull things to the surface? It wouldn't need to be flat, it'd just need to radiate out from the center of the planet into every direction at once so every surface of a sphere would have the same no-floating force holding things to it."
