When he was born, history was taught on two stone tablets.;-D

But who calls that livin’ when no gal would give in to no guy what’s…

You don’t look a decade over 300 Mathuse old boy!

How long has bleeb been bumping around?

Cake…Chicken….Not sure what that other pile of stuff is. UGH!!

The fire department is on standby.

He was an ancestor of Noah held to have lived 969 yearsTime flew what they were having fun…

Oddly enough, once he met someone who could count, he died in a few years.

he doesn’t look a day over 250

969 was the exact age this guy lived to (gen 5:21-27). Can you imagine this guy as your great great great great great great….grandfather? “Back in my day we literally had to KILL for a fur coat. One in particular was the mastodon….”

Who brings out the cake before the turkey (or whatever) is eaten?

“Wait… whaaat? 600? I’m not that old! Y’all just keep puttin’ the decimal in the wrong place or you leave it out altogether…

… and why is this cake on fire!?

Imagine living to such an age and seeing hundreds of people you knew die.

Oddly enough, even though Methuselah was the oldest person in recorded history, he died before his father Enoch did.

Oh sure, Mr. McPherson – take the easy way out and don’t draw the correct amount of candles!

Seems like every ancient skeleton found by archeologists is aged somewhere between infancy and about 50-60ish. I’m still waiting for them to find one that gets aged to 900, that would be news.

Bleeb should have a field day with all those drafty togas.

Bleeb, careful which toga you look up.

If that’s a turkey on the table, the bird was unknown in the Eastern Hemisphere back then. Plus, Methuselah never existed; he was just a myth, like Bacchus or Loki.
