This post has made me spend the last 20 minutes sounding out the word “genetically” in my head to see if it should have four or five syllables. I think I might even pronounce it differently in different contexts.

I am a biologist, by the way.

I have decided it has 4.35 syllables.

I am a mathematical biologist.

A pale, well clean and curated guy with strange dresses (rich) who show up suddenly alone with no luggage or horse (alone), talking some foreign language (stranger).

Depending from the periods and the location, the two more likely scenario would be either to be robbed and killed/sold-as-slave or be arrested and put in a jail for interrogation.

Catoblepas ,

I wonder how many ancient texts were like this to the people that wrote them?

Pons_Aelius ,

Many ancient texts (Iliad, Odyssey, Beowulf etc) started as an oral transmission and had a poetic meter to aid in memorisation.

GCostanzaStepOnMe ,

Common misconception. They actually started as gangsta rap.

Pons_Aelius ,

Well, gangsta rap is just bards with glocks and a microphone...

Which is also why they are full of repetition, making them, in my opinion, much more tedious reads for stories that should be more engaging.

Pons_Aelius ,

That's kind of the point.

They weren't created for you and me to read.

They were created to be performed. Reading them out loud helps but audiobooks of them are best.

Same with Shakespeare's plays. Reading them can be a slog for many people.

Watching them performed well is a joy.

FlyingSquid ,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

I get that, but unfortunately that’s not how it’s usually taken in now. It’s usually ‘read this as part of the syllabus’ in college and it’s a slog, which is just too bad because the actual tales are great and I’m sure they’re wonderful when read aloud by a skilled speaker (never been to a performance).

Pons_Aelius ,

I understand.

Studying an oral work without seeing a performance or at least a recorded one is pretty ridiculous.

Most likely you’d spread some diseases that we’re all immune. You wouldn’t even explain how did you get there and that you’re not a heretic due to the language barrier, so probably end up burned alive or something.

@random_character_a@lemmy.world avatar

Those diseases also work the other way around. Your only small defence would be better hygiene and they would probably think you were somehow wrong in the head for constantly washing youself.

If people could fly we wouldn’t do it because we’d consider it exercise.

    The number of times I've seen that... Baffling. The only time to park close at the gym is in the pouring rain.

    That and extreme cold are literally the only times I care about a close parking space. Oh no, I have to walk for 30 seconds before I get into the store? The horror!

    FUCKRedditMods ,

    It’s probably just regular porn the whole point of this joke is the implication of incest from the commenter

    Franzia ,

    I… Heh. 🥰 To seriously answer your question I guess early childhood socialization? Being naughty and then getting scolded and forced to fix it and learn my lesson was fun. And now that desire to be a brat has taken on new meaning.

    I guess being forced to take my desires less seriously in the urgency or the anger of the situation can provide a bit of risk, danger, or shock. The idea that I can do my best and they will still be pissed regardless and treat me differently because of it is so much fun. And then, its kinky so there’s aftercare where the attitude drops and I’m given love.

    Oh. I can’t tell sarcasm when it’s there. And I understand it when it in fact isn’t there. It is indeed truly NSFW.

    At least I am used to putting my volume at 0.
