That's hardly even a joke! It's perfectly believable and I guarantee more than one tablet was used for exactly that purpose.

There's a reason the historical vulgar stuff is on the walls. Writing materials were mind bogglingly expensive until recently.

Breakup letters in cuneiform probably existed but maybe not in preserved long lasting tablet form which was an expensive medium reserved for government, accounting and business contracts, and scholarly pursuits. IIRC vulgar writing (or drafting something you don't want to screw up in your expensive tablet) is expected to have been done in firm dirt ground or in uncured clay that could be rewet and reformed so not something we'd expect to find preserved.

The Romans used wax tablets for temporary writing.

I think that's even older : IIRC they found the case for a wax writing tablet on the Uluburun shipwreck from the 13th century BC.

There's an overlap, but it's a small one that's well known specifically because it's so goddamn weird.

I think everyone would've assumed that, had you not mentioned it so the fact that you specifically mention "not a pervert" honestly raises some questions that you might've hoped to have already answered.

Look they're not a pervert ok? Just because you think they are a pervert and I think they are a pervert doesn't mean they are a pervert and they already said they aren't a pervert ok?!

The secret to enjoying twitch streamers is to only watch 30 second highlights on youtube.

Although, I've watched Limmy review an episode of an old British game show for three hours on youtube and it still was fun.

Burger king foot lettuce isnt about the content of how they say this picture of an employee with his feet in the lettuce is wierd or whatever, Its about they way the guy who narrates the video sounds.
