was on twitter (mistake number one) and was about to get into a heated debate about a translation of the odyssey but then i realized the people who i was abt to argue with liked agamemnon
#like oh you have the word crypto in your username. and think that the odyssey being translated in iambic pentameter is dumb#because#and i quote#‘iambic pentameter didnt exist back then’#i wonder if perhaps ur hatred of emily wilsons translation may just be. a LITTLE misogynist LMFAO !#poks office chair#no shade 2 agamemnon likers btw. im sure there is a lotta nuance there#its just like. these guys were dudebros. im pretty sure they thought he was like. cool.#and didnt realize hes actually the worst ever of all time
