"Mummy mia"
Then #Luigi its ass
Damn I love that movie. Glad at least one other person has seen it.
Neat
Ask them how they learned to speak English.
That's an easy one. They did a stint at a British museum for a century or so.
But they don’t have a tongue. So how do they speak English?
You can communicate with an English person by making noises through a stiff upper lip.
Also a good idea. Maybe he woke up before and learned the language.
I assumed some kind oft translation spell to be in place so he would instantly understand the language of the place he resurrects in.
Reevaluate my worldview and look for an employee. I'd have no idea what they're saying as I speak neither coptic nor greek
Okay first thing is to get him calm. Sit him down, get him some water, ask him the last thing he remembers, and carefully explain the situation. Probably have to be careful with telling him what year it is - he’s going to have questions about his loved ones that I couldn’t answer. Best course of action then is to have that ticket person call in a curator and a licensed therapist, and just let him talk and collect himself until they arrive.
Look for the hidden cameras
I ask "are you my mummy?" and then keel over laughing as I get.. eaten to death or whatever it is mummies do :3
There was one time I was sleeping and my ex's dog woke me up barking. It really startled me, like I was actually terrified, and without thinking, literally tackled the dog. Always thought I was a runner, but might end up attacking the mummy.
Since my reaction when someone robbed me at gunpoint was to ask them if it was a real gun, I would probably ask the mummy how they learned English and go from there.
If they just seem confused and not hostile then we are gonna have a long conversation until the guard comes to boot me out when it closes.
Most likely I’d shit my whole ass
One thing’s for sure is I’d make sure the horses were on my side of the river.
I'd look around to see if Rachel Weisz is anywhere close.
Soil myself.
Get a ride home and schedule an appointment with the shrink.
Head home and contact my therapist for a emergency meeting
Well i don't how it would behave other than what i saw in the Mummy movies so if it's Billy Zane you'll get sucked to death and if it's a female mummy you'll get sucked off to death so either way it'll suck so i'd prefer the female mummy and try bang it before being sucked off to death.
As long as he didn't make any startling movements towards me, I'd help him out. It would be so cool to have a mummy friend. Perhaps tell him about how far civilization has come.
Hope heat throb Brendon Fraser is nearby.
I wake up from the nightmare.
First I would be taken aback, I didn't know my mummy was dead, and then taken aback again that she came back to life.
Well played
Wonder why I'm being pranked and where the cameras are.
Ancient Egyptians had no conception of English.
Get a nosebleed from all the dust
Run.
