TranscriptionTwo Reddit comments, the second a reply to the first.

Copper is so recyclable that stuff that was mined pre BC is being used today.

So what you're telling me is that when the copper head in my old 78 Volvo cracked when it blew the head gasket it was actually Ea-nāṣir's fault again? That son of a bitch.

Then a picture of a man pleading, with the caption

He can't keep getting away with it!

Some think we are using copper that is so old it's from even before the pre-BC times.

from even before the pre-BC times

Uh, isn't all of time the pre-BC times? How could you be before that?

[–] topherclay@lemmy.world 3 points 4 days ago

Are you referring to the pre-before-pre-BC times? The post-BC times do not count as before that so not all of time is pre-BC.

But ultimately yes, that was the joke I was making.
