Be sure to follow the rule before you head out.
Rule: You must post before you leave.
There's actually a pretty large ea-nasir meme-posting culture, it's one of my favourite internet things.
Basically it originated from this cuneiform tablet from 1750BC, the oldest known written complaint.
Translation of the complaint: (source: 1967 Book "Letters from Mesopotamia"
Most of the humour of the various memes and jokes (some examples found here) seems to stem from the fact that Nanni's salt and rage has endured thousands of years and now we know about it. Ea-Nasir will always be remembered as a shitty copper merchant, and there's just something inherently hilarious about that, to me.
It really was the first angry Yelp review/ 1☆ rating.

But we never hear Nasir’s side. Maybe Nasir was in the right, and this guy is the asshole.
From what I gather, the place it was found in is possibly Ea-Nasir's house, and isn't the only such message, implying the dude was basically collecting hatemail.
The first recorded troll?
Apparently.
