Well ackchuwally the comic didn't say that this lump of coal was dating another lump of coal. It says carbon dating, you intolerant bigot! Let coal date whom coal wants to date! Freedom for inter-carbon relationships!

So like, Florida, diamonds all the way down, if we just wait long enough.

For those wondering, diamonds tent to be about 1-3 billion years old, coal about 300 million
