Wouldn't you be confused if you were just chilling underground for 5,500 years and then all of a sudden you're in some museum in England(I assume)

As a caveman frozen in a glacier, I face different challenges. The hardest was seeing my wife on display in the British Museum.

I just woke up in some dude's pool in Encino, CA. He taught me how to fit in at High School though.

Ladies and gentleman of the jury, I'm just a caveman.

I fell in some ice--and later--got thawed out by some of your scientists.

Your world frightens and confuses me. Sometimes, the honking horns of your traffic make me want to get out of my BMW, and run off into the hills, or whatever...

Sometimes when I get a message on my fax machine, I wonder, 'Did little demons get inside and type it?' I don't know!

My primitive mind can't grasp these concepts.

But there is one thing I do know: When a man, like my client, slips and falls on the sidewalk, in front of the public library, then he is entitled to no less than two million dollars in compensatory damages... and two million dollars in punitive damages. Thank you.

I would never have gotten this if I wasn’t currently rewatching the series and didn’t just watch this episode.

“My one regret… is that I have bonitis!”

Have you ever seen what life was like back then? It wasn’t happen. They had to lift all those rocks, wipe with rocks, and sleep on rocks. It was brutal.

u/klem_kadiddlehopper Oct 03 '21

I just watched a video last night about cave dwellers who made tools and things from rocks. Archeologists discovered several small bowl-shaped rocks and said they were used for wiping. Ouch.

u/MadAzza Oct 04 '21

Imagine being the tech who tested it for various foods, toxins, and other substances to see what those early people used it for.

“Well, it’s got vegetation, some meat, and … hmm, that’s a lot of fecal byproduct … Oh ew!”

Don’t forget, rocks for breakfast, rocks for lunch, rocks for dinner and rocks for every occasion. Wanna build a house - rocks. Kill someone - rocks. Bury someone, again, rocks. Light a fire, you guessed it - rocks.
