Reminds me of a Cunk meme:

Explanation: Julius Caesar was not an Emperor, though he did, as a matter of technicality, die more than 3 years ago.

The statue is of his adoptive son, Augustus.

The letter J wasn't even invented until the year 1524.

Therefore, Julius never existed in the first place.

No way. I never heard of Ulius Caesar.

Why does that name sound kinky? 🤔

😂🤣

Because you read it with a French accent.

But why today, and not Saturday, on the day of old Julius death?

Laziness, impulsivity, time blindness, take your pic.

I choose laziness. Frequently.

Though he is known as Augustus, his name actually was Julius Caesar as well (he changed his name after his adoptive father passed away). So it is all technically correct.

This is on par with the posts from the "on this date" community.

When you're dead, it's for a while.
