Ancient Egyptians had a sense of humor.

It might say more than that. Lots of symbols for that little sentence.

See today’s ‘Eek!’.

’Probably Loweroglyphics instead of Hieroglyphics [Nod-Nod]

“Do you own a car with an auto warranty about to expire?”

…..and you’ll really be loser when that stalagmite falls and pierces your noggin.

I think it says… Laaa-oooooo Saaa-errrrrr, there Ace!

Hieroglyphics = Grawlix? Who knew?

I thought archaeology was for finders.

And Bleeb is thinking, “Why aren’t there any lady archaeologists?”

Archaeologists are bone idle, miners are gold diggers.

remember it’s @ before # except after $

Can’t you dig it?

Well it was written during the New Kingdom, it would still be more than 2000 years old so there was less to archeologe and it would seem less important during a time of sustenance farming.

It could be worse I suppose, the hieroglyphs could read, “Your chariot warranty is about to expire…”

Sometimes it’s not worth reading the truth meanings on cave walls….

Not True! Archaeologists make great McDonalds managers!

I remember it as ‘mites go up and tights come down’

So the entire message was written in grawlixes?

Millennial cavemen

I think the other guy is hiding his “prank smirk”.

Let’s see the archeologists heiroglyph verbal, starts with an f and ends with an s with 5 characters in between, let me think…

" . . . fornecate myself with a WHAT?!?"

Bleeb’s spelunking.

I hope this doesn’t rune their reputation.

No Indiana Jones reference?

They were years ahead of their time.
