Can you imagine being 3000 years dead and a bunch of dicks on the internet, a thing you can't possibly understand, won't stop making fun of you?

He sent a strongly worded email and forensic archaeologists a millennia from now will find it funny.

I’m fun at parties but the lasting capabilities of fired cuneiform are likely far greater than today’s digital media, ignoring intentional perpetual preservation/backup.

36 million... too bad they died of "natural causes " next week.

Chase Bank also had a ton of precious metal they used to change the stock market value and then it turned out their precious metals were just rocks.

HEY! Ea Nasir would never stoop that low. He sold real copper ingots, his smelter just sucked

Somehow, Ea - Nassir returned..

Imagine this being your legacy, this is how you secured your spot in history. That you were SO awful at your job that, centuries upon centuries upon centuries later in a world that your brain couldn't even begin to comprehend the prosperity, size and complexity of, that the only record of you as a person is that you were awful at selling copper, and that you've become a joke.

Ironically, using devices that require quality copper to function.

I hope the orange turd is remembered in the same vein for millennia. Even better if no one remembers his name, and his legacy is just "Orange Turd." :D

Was he that bad at his job or did a single yelp review from one person survive?
Hammertulski
There’s a neat discussion in academia about this guy, in that it’s not fully clear if he was responsible for the trade complaints, or if traders working for him were undercutting his customers for personal benefit, or if he was unintentionally shitty and kept the records as evidence of wrongs he’d righted. Cuneiform translation depends heavily on context and we’re still piecing together what little data is available about his era.
vowofsilence
Sounds like something Ea-Nasir would say …
OozingRabbit
I don't know, but I'll assume here since I'm 99.999999% sure where those painted stone came from. Those painted stones came from China, right?
skathir
Not China's style. Those stones would be real gold colour metal, and smaller than you ordered. Like, you get the product, it's technically what you asked for, just a whole bunch crappier.
somnif
Turkey, in this case. They were actually being shipped TO China (on behalf of a Swiss parent company)
usernametakenisthestoryofmylife
At least they painted the stones. That was thoughtful.
justfiguredoutimc4azyanddumbb
Disguising and equal amount of goose shit would have also been thoughtful. Context is fun.
HeyOP
@EaNasir Are you back?
rmmmm
What’s with them?

I'm not sure about that one, but I believe that @EaNasirsExcellentHighGradeCopper is around here somewhere.

Someday, making fun of Ea-Nasir will stop being funny. But today is not that day.
pixelscapes
I saw someone on Imgur complaining about Ea-Nasir memes and convinced they would fade away soon. Nnnnnope
Shaodyn
Been funny for over 100 years (at least since we rediscovered Ea-Nasir), and I don't see the funny stopping anytime soon.

Someday, a digital archaeologist will write a dissertation with a footnote, “Humanity’s most famous copper complaint letter resonated so powerfully that it inspired meta-complaint letters in the Silicon Age.”
Aesonique
Tomorrow's not looking good either.
ihavesexwithllamas6
I mean, it’s been funny the past 3774 years, no reason to believe it can’t make it another 3000 years or so.
SavageDrums
I like your optimism re: the species still existing in 3000 years...
AllMaktAtTengilVarBefriare
Even if global warming, nuclear war, famine and disease killed 7.500.000.000 people we'd still have hundreds of million left.
Humanity going completely extinct is realistically just a doomer wetdream.
radioFREEmadras
Akshually, since it was lost c. 1750 BCE and only found again c. 1922-1934, it's only been funny for around 100 - 120 years or so at best.
ihavesexwithllamas6
Just cause no one’s around to hear the joke doesn’t mean it don’t slap.
