This is not an exhaustive list of continents. Please choose responses out of the continents listed.
If you know of other continents, please feel free to reply to the poll with the names of those continents if it will make you feel good.
Please know, though, that I am aware of other continents and did not include them in this poll on purpose. I did not omit them by accident.

  You may not believe that one or more of the land masses on this list is a continent. That's OK. There are multiple continent systems and you and I have different ones. The world is complex and minds are diverse. That's good, not bad.

  @evan I once visited Mu with a stopover in Hy-Brasil. Got diverted via Lemuria on the way back.

  @David well, there *are* some underlying physical objects that map pretty closely to some continent models.

    Plate tectonics
    
    Plate tectonics (from Latin tectonicus, from Ancient Greek τεκτονικός (tektonikós) 'pertaining to building') is the scientific theory that Earth's lithosphere comprises a number of large tectonic plates, which have been slowly moving since 3–4 billion years ago. The model builds on the concept of continental drift, an idea developed during the first decades of the 20th century. Plate tectonics came to be accepted by geoscientists after seafloor spreading was validated in the mid- to late 1960s. The processes that result in plates and shape Earth's crust are called tectonics. Earth's lithosphere, the rigid outer shell of the planet including the crust and upper mantle, is fractured into seven or eight major plates (depending on how they are defined) and many minor plates or "platelets". Where the plates meet, their relative motion determines the type of plate boundary (or fault): convergent, divergent, or transform. The...

  @evan Glad you're reminding this to people. It's crazy the number of people who think that continents are an objective and absolute concept and not a social/historical construct.
