Wow, things are really bad!

I'm sure they gave you a key. I wouldn't want to even try with that uninspired shite. Can you give it to an ai?

>I'm sure they gave you a key
What? No. Can you really not comprehend this. The whole point of the text was that despite not having words it was easy to understand. Don't you see the section where he goes on the toilet, can't poop, goes on his phones, then poops, then looks at his poop before flushing?

No, I don't poop, actually.

I said this class... What's wrong with that? The professor was asking if we considered this text "writing".

>> No.21612213

>>21612116
Hieroglyphs can be ideograms, like the symbols being used in your example, but also were used alphabetically, and as a kind of syntactical part called a determinative, which provided context at the end of segments of ideogrammatic/alphabetical signs.
All three of these use cases were used in tandem in any given hieroglyphic text according to their best use case, and this produced a much more coherent result than that crude mess of a text in the OP. Also there was no punctuation poorly wedged into the system.

>> No.21612343

>>21612213
So if they can be ideograms then it's not entirely wrong to compare the two
