I’ve seen this one!
Oh, these are the new billionaire inbreds?
Just kidding, fuck yeah, I’ll always upvote “the thing”.
Trump‘s latest Cabinet picks
Is that a man in there… or something?
Childs, get the flamethrower!
you beat me to it with about 3h. these are mandatory flashbacks for anyone who has watched the movie and saw this meme
Can’t snack on the tomb cheese.
Can’t slurp the sarcophagus juice.
Can’t eat ancient worms.
What is there to live for.In pre-slavic society, you don’t eat worm. Worm eats you, then commands you to reproduce so worm has more you to eat.
There are those packing peanuts made from corn starch.
If I remember correctly, the industry term for packing peanuts is “void filler” so, fill that void!
I know about the sarcophagus juice, but what the heck is the tomb cheese? lol
Be blessed by the 2.6k years old tomb cheese.

At least we will have mummy jerky… For now.
Despite the apparent huge age gap, they can still date under the “half your age plus 7” rule.
*half your age plus 700
A lot of times memes are what they are because they’re harder to fact check (can’t copy and paste text from them). People use them to spread misinformation for fun. -This is actually a confirmed meme though.
Says you?
We need to make it mandatory that all memes link to a reverse image search on Snopes so we can fact check them
Fact checking memes what has the world come to
Sounds like a good bot.
Not a fan of snopes. Copyfish and reverse image search on right click works good for desktop users.
Thanks!
This is actually a confirmed meme though.
Except for a couple of details from the link you posted: there were only two worms, and they are likely of the same age (don’t think this can be determined more specifically than ‘around 40 thousand years’), and the picture is absolutely wrong.
Would anyone still love me if I was a 41,700 y/o worm? 🥺
Leto?
Are you asking for a friend, old worm?
I would ancient worm, I would
Are these the same worms that got into RFK Jr’s brain after his meeting with his russian handler?
Yes, but they starved for lack of brains :(
It might not have been the worm actually. Missing a chunk of brain runs in his family on his uncle’s side.
Sure, but that generally involves lead poisoning.
Holy Fuck!
No. He killed those ones with horse dewormer trying to prevent COVID
always believe in your soul
Indeed.
Are we just looking for imaginative ways to destroy ourselves at this point? We have enough options already! But we have to keep looking for more creative previously unknown ways to kill ourselves.
We’ve got to leave something interesting for the alien xeno-archaeologists of the future to uncover.
Xeno-archaeologist 1,000 years from now: … yeah … it’s another one … fourth one in this sector … just blew themselves up and destroyed everything for some dumb reason … probably economics like in that last system 35 light years away … too bad … if we had arrived earlier, we could have helped them out … oh well
Further research shows that they blew everything up trying to deal with the ancient, insatiable, worms they released on themselves out of curiosity. Upon reflection, it is probably better that we didn’t arrive earlier.
Alien #1: … HEY KORG! … look at this! … (picks up human skull and starts comically operating the jawbone) … HEY LOOK AT ME! Imma intelligent species and my economy is more important because I have to pay for these worms … so imma gonna blow up the world for some reason
KORG: … Stop messing around Kang … this place gives me the creeps, let’s get out of here.
Exactly, do you want them to know we polluted ourselves to death? That’s just shameful
Now, if we accidentally unleashed an ancient parasite? That’s just unfortunate
Maybe it’s related to thawing of permafrost and they want to research what to do if all the frozen bugs come back to life
Worst that there are also unknown Virus and Bacteria found in the Permafrost, which are also defrosted with the Climate change. A lot are also still life…
More fun still - prions.
Your autoclave won’t help you now, kids.
Let’s just hope that they have no compatible hosts on Earth
Although, most likely less-evolved hence less-threathening than the current virus and bacterias.
Not less evolved. Just evolved differently for alternative environmental circumstances.
There is no hierarchy of evolutionary traits. Just an amalgamation of traits that are or are not useful in the current environment. What genetic makeup is effective in one place and time is useless in another, and what was once useless may now be beneficial.
We have no clue how threatening they could potentially be.
Yes and no.
Ok my last input was a bit lazy hence all the armchair biologists tuning in.
Less and more evolved is definitely a thing when alluding to the complexity of the system and since evolution is incremental time helps.
However you are right that adaptability to the environment is the most important thing when defining the success of your “genetic constitution”.
I guess my point is that we are more likely to have, in our DNA, evolved adaptation to them than they are to have adaptation to circumvent our immunity.
That being said, yes there are inherent risks to getting those out there, I’m just saying our propensity for enjoying fictional doom scenarios might make us overstate the probability of those occurences.
Is the saber toothed tiger less threatening than the common house cat ?
Yes, saber toothed tiger can’t manipulate humans.
It’d have a fair go at manipulating your arm off your torso given the chance.
If it can’t survive in today’s environment then yes.
That’s not how evolution works.
They are investigating it, some million years in the oldest beeings in Earth don’t make evolutive difference to the current ones. The only question is, if they can infect humans or animals or not. The climate change make that all tipe of indesirable things are defrosted, adding more dangerous diseases to the existing ones.
Viruses and bacteria don’t evolve to kill you. They propogate in your system to spread themselves. It’s actually in their best interest to keep you alive, so the more evolved ones would be less deadly because they’ve had more time to dial it in. Not that evolution is something they choose, it’s from mutations that work more or less better.
Normally I recommend we start small, just a little fire.
Fuck it in this case. Exterminatus.
Gonna need to break out the board from Cabin in the Woods
I love that “Uh, guys?” is a real in-character reaction and moment in many episodes of SG1. This story easily could have been a plot in the show.
While Star Trek had these wonderful “this is why we explore the galaxy” moments, SG1 wasn’t afraid to place characters face-to-face with something or someone that would just erase existence or end humanity if the next moment wasn’t handled the right way.
Oh they are going to love microplastics
Their opponent:
Who is that fine looking gentleman with the godawful haircut?
Don’t worry, he’s died like 5 times
Then ascended
after all the shit he’s been through
Character is Daniel Jackson from Stargate SG-1
Very underrated show.
Indeed.
Canadian actor Michael Shanks.
