TranscriptionTwo Reddit comments, the second a reply to the first.

Copper is so recyclable that stuff that was mined pre BC is being used today.

So what you're telling me is that when the copper head in my old 78 Volvo cracked when it blew the head gasket it was actually Ea-nāṣir's fault again? That son of a bitch.

Then a picture of a man pleading, with the caption

He can't keep getting away with it!

I think the mind bend is the idea that the copper you're holding might have been unearthed thousands of years ago and processed for different usage many times over.
