What are some of your guilty pleasures that you're willing to admit?

What are some of your guilty pleasures that you're willing to admit?

I am blessed. My body produces enough testosterone for me to not feel guilty about any of my pleasures.

You can still rephrase your question to a variant of "what are some things you like" and I will answer.

What are some things you like?

black coffee, cooking, riding my bike, exploring areas I have never been to before. I prefer listening to books rather than reading them. I like geraniums and have a small plot where I exclusively plant geraniums of different colours. I have a small collection of stamp presentation packs from different countries that I like to go through every now and then. I have a few silber niobium coins that I like and a bunch of silvers sorted in neat collections. I also enjoy investing money in p2p lending.

I always wanted to collect Ancient Coins, but they are expensive (from $400 - $2000) per a good peace, do you have any of those in your collections or do you collect ONLY cheaper ones that looks nice?

What do you think of these coins? Would you ever collect them?

To me it's like having a peace of history, they look invaluable and every single one tells a unique story.

Most of my coins come from the Austrian and Polish Mints. I bought them when I was in Germany.

Having said that, I am thinking of buying a metal detector. I am sure I'll find something valuable. I've found a ton of colonial copper coins accidentally when digging, not ancient but interesting.

I also found an ancient grave, but it was already pillaged.

I live near an archaeological park. There are people here using ancient Greek bathtubs as garden deco.

I'd collect this type of coins. There is a law in Cyprus that if you find an antiquity you have to hand it over to the museum.

What is your opinion on this matter:

Greek language has a melody, it flows easily when you speak it, while Classical Latin language isn't... it's rigid, without sense (or maybe we don't know how to properly pronounce it) ?

Here is a descend try-hard who is trying to pronounce latin properly, does it sound legit to you?

Are we comparing classical Latin with classical Greek, koine Greek or modern Greek?

Modern.

[Thanas Django]

Modern.

Well Modern Greek is to classical Greek what Castillian Spanish is to classical Latin and both are phonetically and rhythmically very similar.
