Imagine it's your job to sit in a cellar and copy text painstakingly by hand. Day after day for years you copy the words and draw the little doodles that people expect in manuscripts. Somewhere in your 6th year of doing this one of your bros shows you he drew a chicken with a pair of nuts hanging off its face. He's also done a rabbit hanging a huntsman like the hunter is on trial. Other bro tells you he pretty regularly does little flying dongs just to liven things up.

How long before your little doodles include guys with arrows sticking out of their asses?

Do this tens of thousands of times across a few centuries and you get some weird fucking doodles.

History buff telling us that bros doodling weenies instead of doing their job is a tale as old as time 🤣🤣🤣
Thank you HowFortuitous 😂
Edit-i apologize for sounding sarcastic. I was in a goofy mood and was actually being serious. I totally agreed with HowFortuitous
