    The person to whom you were responding was trying to make this artifact of the Before-Times relatable to modern Homo Cephalosepses, which cannot comprehend anything from outside its natural environment of TikTok. Unfortunately, speciation has not yet led to a visible difference between the two extant species of the genus Homo, and behavioral differences are currently the only way to differentiate this new species from H. Sapiens, so this person was trying to bridge the species divide, in case the original commenter was on the other side of it.

    ETA: I suppose that I will also grant the possibility that the person to whom you replied was an H. Cephalosepses individual trying to translate to others of their kind.

      You need to get this theory on YouTube as a video series. 1. It would be funny. 2. It may teach a lot of us why our kids just want to sit around on Roblox/Minecraft all day.

        Well, we need to wait a few years to see if H. cephalosepses individuals are capable of producing viable offspring with H. sapiens, since that would indicate that Cephalosepses is actually a subspecies of H. sapiens, just like H. sapiens boomerensis
