Why does the earth spin ?

Luna keeps us in a stable spin, but the ordinary formation of a planet leads to spin.
 
Try this one, you're in a spaceship orbiting the earth and it's spinning out of control, would you spin inside with the spaceship, spin the other way or stay still and to follow that up if you closed your eyes would you know about the spinning.

Need to get to sleep...my sleep patterns are shite some nights.
 
It doesn’t. It’s All a government conspiracy. If the earth was moving, planes would go up and instantly be miles away, it would take longer to travel against the rotation than with it. Or so says a rag I vaguely know.

I think it's to do with all the toilets flushing.

It used to not spin, then man invented the toilet, and all that water going around the bowl caused a little 'push', which multiplied by the number of toilets caused the earth to start rotating at an ever increasing rate.

I think it's called coriolises force. Coriolis invented the toilet.

It won't ever get corrected until the same number of toilets exist in the Southern Hemisphere as the Northern Hemisphere.

This also explains why toilet trout only swim clockwise.
