They also just happen to write about how the person they assisinated to get power was an evil tyrant with a small pp.
(I know this is a massive problem with Roman history, Nero fiddling while Rome burned was almost certainly an invention of Christian authors.)
Big mistake though, in that case. Nero would’ve needed a huge pp. Big dumb Nero with his massive schlong unable to figure out what to do. But our hero, with his miniscule pp, genius, he’s here to save the day.
Good point, I forgot about the Roman attitude to pp
It does make me wonder when the association changed though, or if it was purely regional.
Definitely regional, there’s a preference for bigger dicks well before the romans, too.
I dunno when “bigger dick = hornier” came about, but I know it was at least Greek. But then romans valued reserve, things in proportion. Sometimes they let loose but they felt there was a time and place, and a man who couldn’t control himself wouldn’t be favored, and a big dick meant exactly that. Impulse control, not a specific size preference.
Its very interesting, honestly.
I bet you could beat a woman or young boy half to death with it, too!
(I know they’re edgelord douchebags, but they have a few good bits.)
Fiddle? He was more likely to have played bagpipes. Which is just exponentially funnier to me for some reason
Well, he certainly didn’t fiddle, since the violin wasn’t invented for another thousand years. Supposedly in the original accounts it was a cithara or lyre. It also doesn’t help that he was over 30 miles away when it started, and personally coordinated the firefighting efforts when he did finally arrive.
See that’s what I love about Rome. They’re all lying and being catty bitches about it too
Had to read three times. I need to agree with a former Portuguese teacher of mine. Phrases are hard to understand if they’re too long.
Same.
I think it needs a parenthesis around the middle bit about the scholar. That would probably increase readability
