I’ve never heard of cheddar jalapeño but it sounds amazing.

Cheetos arent organic & beer isnt gluten free.

implying you could alligator arm the hands of Providence. follow your system and we'd end up in a national social ranking system like China; a vessel for seagoing snitches.

Um, let's see. Latin and Greek literature are two of the most exciting and fascinating literatures ever written.

After you've read the Aeneid, I really recommend reading Ovid's works (Heroides and Metamorphoses are filled with mythological elements and have a great romantic-ish atmosphere), also check out The Golden Ass by Apuleius, it has a great narrative pace. If you know some Latin, I recommend you get a side by side translated version.

About Greek literature, throw away that Robert Graves book and get some lyric poetry by Alcaeus or Sappho, and absolutely something from Euripides, Sophocles and Aeschylus. Homer is amazing, good choice.

It's better if you get to read about the lives of the authors as well. Bon voyage!

>>12296843
aw, what's wrong with the Graves book? I've read it twice. Seemed fine to me. thanks for actually talking about the books anon.

>>12296754

You fucking did not...

>>12296817
why do people put shit on the trigger like that? also hows the cz 75 i wanna get i to shooting

>>12296881
it's fantastic. robert graves was a real man. you should get his iliad translation

>>12296897
it's to prop the object up for a photo. it's not mine, i found it on the internet.

CZ 75, I have heard, has an exceptional grip design. It points very naturally, supposedly better than a 1911. If you want to start shooting, now is a good time. I'd recommend starting with an AR-15, as they're at rock bottom prices right now. Buy a complete upper and an assembled lower from Palmetto State Armory, it'll come to just around or under $400. Buy them separately, plug them together with the integrated thumb pins on the receiver, and be spared the 11% federal tax. You won't find any kind of decent pistol for that price, and you can learn the basics of marksmanship from Army documents online. If you must have a pistol, most of the nicer options are going to be $600-800. Go watch some hickok45 on youtube and see which designs you like.

>>12296909
I'll look for it, thanks anon!

That Nag Hammadi translation is over-gender-neutered garbage. "Son of Man" becomes "Child of Humanity" which makes me want to vomit.

>>12296677
You are missing 5 books, namely the Cypria, Aethiopis, Little Iliad, Sack of Ilium, The Returns. Pfff what a charlatan.

best lit thread in weeks

>>12296677
Some really boring literature that you won't finish.

Don't deny it, it's the truth.

>>12298580
i've already read all of those, anon, except for the nag hamadi library and the second half of the white goddess.

>>12298597
I've read some of these. Because I had to.
I didn't start reading them because trolls on /lit/ convinced me.

>>12298602
okay. why did you have to?

>>12296754
