"Ancient Tech Support"

The following is a true story. We at jokedujour.com
verified it. Really.

The tech support problem dates back to long before
the industrial revolution, when primitive tribesmen
beat out a rhythm on drums to communicate:

"This fire help. Me Groog."

"Me Lorto. Help. Fire not work."

"You have flint and stone?"

"Ugh."

"You hit them together?"

"Ugh."

"What happen?"

"Fire not work"

"(sigh) Make spark?"

"No spark, no fire, me confused. Fire work yesterday."

"*sigh* You change rock?"

"I change nothing."

"You sure?"

"Me make one change. Stone hot so me soak in
stream so stone not burn Lorto hand. Small change,
shouldn't keep Lorto from make fire."

Grabs club and goes to Lorto's cave*

*WHAM*WHAM*WHAM*WHAM*
