    Centuries from now, some historian is going to dig up a dusty ass old hard drive, and find this image on it. There will be experts in internet meme history that they will take this meme to, who will be able to identify the exact week that it was posted based on the archaeological record of acorn cop and Taylor Swift jet memes

      Hopefully they find our comments too.

      ‘Sup future people! Btw all that other shit in the news is really happening! It isn’t some War of the Worlds confusion or running joke or something like that.

          My thought process was that if the future people exist and have the means to read these comments, they could be from one of the timelines where civilized minds won out. Plenty of the bad timelines won’t have anybody there to read these words. :/
