I'm literally reading the dictionary to learn all the words that might be of some use. I'm nearly on the C's. This is the true path to Patricianhood. There is no other way.

lol so? You think the dictionary fell out of heaven? Does it have the imprimatur of the gods? Some faggot nerd put it together with a group of other faggot nerds, it’s literally just some random fag’s opinions on what words mean and which words are worth defining, why would you take it as revelation? It’s just a reference book

>Antinous was a young Greek of extraordinary beauty from Bithynia, who became the beloved companion or lover of the Roman emperor Hadrian but later died in Nile under mysterious circumstances.
Discovery in 1894

>Stricken by the death of Antinous, Hadrian, who happened to be an admirer and a passionate supporter of classical Greek Antiquity, as well as a benefactor of the Oracle of Delphi, ordered that statues of the beautiful young man, whom he had loved so passionately, be erected in all sanctuaries and cities of his vast empire. Furthermore, he ordered the institution and establishment of Games in honor of Antinous, who since then was honored and worshiped as a god.

And /lit/, while touting "start with the greeks" is trying to say that liking cute bois is not the single most patritian thing.

Forget that, they say to take the Greeks seriously and even their views on aesthetics then they say homosexuality is an abomination to their Jewish God. Talk about some serious double-mindedness.
