[ The person on the video looks like he's trying way too hard to look casual. Dressed in black, with red hair that clearly has a lot of product in it, and sunglasses on indoors which just make him look like even more of a tool, he's sprawled lazily on a sofa. He sounds British*. ]

So, being kidnapped to another dimension is great and all, yippee, just what I wanted this week, good to see America is just as tedious in this dimension as in mine, but - there's really only one question worth asking, here.

Where can I get a decent drink?

[ He's also possibly just 1. an immortal who is 2. bad at maths and 3. sometimes takes absurdly long naps. ]

...Might've been four thousand. Look, the point is, the first couple of millennia were pretty boring, all things considered.

That's still pretty late. The place I'm from is a little unusual, but we already had proper civilizations, like, ten thousand years ago.

[ This is also a stupid bullshit number as far as real history goes, but that's just how it be sometimes. ]

[goodtobebad]

The Earth that I'm from is only six thousand years old, give or take.

[ So, as a proportion of the age of the universe, it's not actually that bad! ]

[dragony]

Huh. Did your world... skip, pre-human history? I mean, I suppose I'm assuming your Earth is at least a little like this one.

[goodtobebad]

Didn't skip anything. In the beginning, let there be light, all that.

Prehistory is a joke. Literally, God thought it'd be funny.

[dragony]

Mmm. Well, I suppose you'll have that in common, with this world. The strange sense of humor of the powers that be.

[goodtobebad]

Unknowable beings tend to be that way, yeah. I'm not surprised in the least.
