I yearn to eat a potato I looted from the body of a zombie that I killed with a sword I made out of a tree that I cut down by punching it.

Cutting down trees by punch is peak realism.

Capitalist: Kids, now you too can come and experience the Craft of Mining! Here's your personized helmet lamp and pickaxe! Anything useful that you dig up belongs to me. Notresponsibleforsideeffectssuckasdeathandinjury.

That would be more realistic about child labour if we replaced Minecraft with Roblox

Hmm, I was pretty sure this was an inferior version of another tweet, but that tweet was in 2022, so if this tweet was really in 2020 then it was first (the timestamp has been "conveniently" cropped out)... but KnowYourMeme thinks the 2022 tweet was the first instance of "the children yearn for the mines."

So I looked at the Google trends, and the first search interest in this phrase was in 2005!? What's the original?

Yeah, I was thinking this was just a rip off of the funny tweet but with crap wording.

Ain't nobody had Minecraft in 05. 05 was Halo 2 days. An my neighbor think I'm the high one...

I know, Minecraft isn't in the Google trends data I was looking at. The phrase "the children yearn for the mines" is listed as having significant search interest in '05.
