There’s so many dumb people in the world that it can get overwhelming, so I think from now on I’ll narrow it down and focus my ire on a select group of people: archaeologists. Because apparently they’re the dumbest people in the entire world.
They just found a new tomb in Egypt, the first such discovery since Tutankhamen’s tomb was discovered 84 years ago.
And where was the new tomb discovered?
Sixteen feet from the tomb of Tutankhamen!
I can see these guys talking to each other, 80 years after the opening of King Tut’s tomb:
“Hey, you know, we should probably get around to finding another tomb at some point.”
“Yeah, but where?”
“Well...maybe we should start looking around where they found King Tut?”
“Whatever, shovel boy, if that’s what gets you going. You have fun with your ‘archaeology’ thing--I’m going to practice fighting Nazis and running away from giant boulders.”
