Donut Shaped World Theory

From Plastic Tub

The theory that the earth is in fact, shaped like a donut. Proved wrong by cosmonauts in 1975.

A.W. Slippers proposed this theory in such works as The Shipping Lane Aside and it gained currency among prisoners, Unitarians, the insane and 27 members of the U.S. Congress.

One follower, Johannssen Schmetterzwitt, urged people to spread the word. He was arrested one night walking around Philadelphia clad "with only a donut circl'd about that member which should not be mentioned in these halls," as it was put so eloquently by Senator Locust B. Burley of Vermont, when the matter of Slippers' proposal to vogage to the center of the hole in the Earth was discussed in the Senate.
