Cave paintings and inscriptions date back thousands of years, providing insight into prehistoric human life. However, sometimes, they also serve as a great source of humor and entertainment, and we've got a great example for you!
A satirical image has recently gone viral, showing a cave painting of three men looking sad and depressed. The caption further joked about how humans have been battling mental health struggles since prehistoric times, leaving users online in stitches.
Hilarious user reactions
Many users were seen joining in on the fun with hilarious reactions. Let's take a look at some of them.
Living is hard
As this user humorously points out, life has always been tough, whether it's the year 2025 or 7000 BC. Cavemen couldn't even sleep peacefully, they had to stay alert in case a leopard attacked! Now that's hard!
As real as can get
It seems those cavemen were way ahead of their time, documenting their low moments on cave walls all those millennia ago, as this user suggests. But hold on, if they were sharing their struggles, then should that count as therapy?
Better artists
It seems that this user is hilariously fixated on the fact that cave people were better artists than him. To make it worse, they only had stones to work with, so imagine what they could've achieved with crayons!
Just another Tuesday
The depressed cave people definitely seem relatable to many, as this user humorously admits that he finds himself in those same headspaces and positions every Tuesday!
Prehistoric depression hits different
Depression in the prehistoric age must have been rough - no therapy, no scented candles to lift our mood, and not even any food delivery apps! Can you imagine how tough that must have been?
Neck troubles
Looks like the bent necks of the people in the cave paintings reminded this user of how her own neck has become after staring at PC monitors all day. It’s probably like looking in a mirror!
Unveiling their backstories
This user seems to have figured out why each of the three men looks sad: one lost his job, one lost his love, and one lost his soul. But wait, what kind of job was the first man doing 10,000 years ago?
Caveman burnout
Whether you're a human from today or from the prehistoric age, burnouts are always a thing. Caveman burnouts were probably more intense, considering how they had no option to kick back in a reclining chair and relax with the TV on while enjoying a cold beverage.
Trending
The internet is truly a wonderful place, because nowhere else could you stumble upon a gag image of cave paintings depicting depressed cavemen, and watch people hilariously come up with theories about it!
