Hundred thousand years of edition wars
I was reading an edition war thread on another forum and got so brainnumbingly bored by it that I finally decided to sort out my dads VHS collection and burn it to a harddrive (which I'd promised to do anyway).
So, I was doing that when I came across Mission Impossible. The original series. And I remembered how dad and his brother used to argue about which version was better, the 1966 or the 1988.
And then:
- Somewhere in the past there are two Roman soldiers, arguing about whether the Pompeii Gladius is better than the Hispanic Gladius. Who are then joined by a third praising the longer reach of the Spatha.
- Shang Dynasty generals arguing about whether Sun Bin's Art of War is an improvement over Sun Tzu's, or just useless copypasta. And a captain who thinks Jiang Ziya's Six Secret Teachings is much more useful.
- Neanderthals in a fight over whether to use oval rocks, or sharp rocks. "No. Ogg use square rock!" "Not for long square if keep banging it like that!"

There were amoebas arguing over the ideal numbers of pseudopods and vacuoles...
