They reached this conclusion after they found a bunch of papers and scissors laying about

Indestructible, my ass.

Wtf is wrong with people
brian@lemmy.ca 3 weeks ago
but they weren’t destroying the rock, right? they were just splitting it up into smaller rocks. I bet they’d have a heck of a time actually destroying that rock.
pretty undestructible if you ask me? /s

Ah, the “stick vs.1000 us marines” conundrum

It can only be destroyed by throwing it into the heart of Mount Doom. Or other volcano.

Bonus fun fact: Stonehenge is not a true henge!
Nasan@sopuli.xyz 3 weeks ago
Stonehenge did nothing wrong. Henge is the imposter here. Henge came by and just decided to define itself differently to discredit Stonehenge. Henge will never succeed in its sick plot.
HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
if we’re defining it by the ditch, then what is it?
ivanafterall@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
Oh my God, now we’re gatekeeping henges…

Based on the title for The Hill, is it even stone?
Saapas@piefed.zip 3 weeks ago
Oh damn you had already mentioned this!
Fedizen@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
I mean if it was built out of anything else the destructible material has been looted or destroyed by now. You can say this about pretty much every old thing.
Digit@lemmy.wtf 3 weeks ago
nearly indestructible
Yeah. Nearly. That’s why some got replaced with concrete to keep up appearances.

Why is a political website posting about Stonehenge…
fossilesque@mander.xyz 3 weeks ago
Heritage is a political resource.

So much less destructible than Strawhenge or Woodhenge.
leaky_shower_thought@feddit.nl 3 weeks ago
50% i am sure it is stone, the other 50%, henge.
lividweasel@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
Maybe we should be calling it “Stone/Henge” then
pennomi@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
Or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, Stone plus Henge. Henge is not a prehistoric megalith unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning Stone system made useful by the Stone corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full megalithic structure as defined by neolithic hunter-gatherers.
ivanafterall@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
That’s exactly how I’ve always pronounced it, too.

Something I learned from QI

The article you keep linking disagrees.
An atypical example of something is still a “true” example of the thing, especially given that the very term derives its origin from Stonehenge itself.
