I came across these lines in Persius' Satires (5, 52-53) and was struck by them, so I decided to versify them into English.
Mille hominum species et rerum discolor usus;
velle suum cuique nec voto vivitur uno.
A thousand kinds of humankind, a spectrum of experience;
Each wish unique, the lives we seek no single prayer can bless.
Halk walks into the pub after taking the Kraken Quest off of the quest board. Taking a knife She impales the quest onto a wall and stands next to it "I'm looking for hunters" She says loudly
Do your worst!
For context I'm a Refuse Driver (Garbage man) & today I was on food waste. After I'd tipped I was checking the wagon for any defects when I spotted a lone pea balanced on the lifts.
I said "hey look, an escaPEA"
No one near me but it didn't half make me laugh for a good hour or so!

Lets start at the begining: In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning. Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it… and the Word was just the f-ing prequel to the lore of the fate series
Oh what? you thought Fate’s time line would be anything short of the entirety of human history? cute, but I’ll skip this part just for you guys😩
So here is the absolute, the correct, the final reading order for you to watch and fully be able appreciate the Fate series
1- get a crash course of early Mesopotamian history(before the Persian empire), I recommend: either reading the wiki or watching Kings&Generals mesopotamia playlist on youtube
2- Read about Mesopotamian polytheism(or don’t just know that they didn’t have an after life)
3-Read the Epic of Gilgamesh, the stories ♾/10(it’s likely the most important story in human history) https://www.reddit.com/r/onetruegilgamesh/comments/ge298h/gilgameshs_history_myth_legend_etc/
Than you have to start reading about modern religions:
4-read about early Judahism
5-than Zoruastrianism (specifically the devil’s back story in Zurvanite Ulema-i Islam)
6-than Christianity
7-than the catholic cherch’s history
8-than Islam
9-than the Shia/Sunni devide and yes these all matter in the story
10-get a crash corse of classic greek history
11-Go into Alexander’s history to but not in too much detail instead focus on the myths about him, like how he basically founded China or that he was Persian since servents that are summoned are heavily effected by these myths
proceed to read about there greek myths
12-12 labors of hercules
13-the story of persius and the Gorgon sisters
14-than Aegeus and Medea’ stories
15-continue with a crashcorse of medival celtic peoples and their history(only the ones on the british isles)
16-check Cú Chulainn’s story
17-Nuada’s story
18-Diarmuid Ua Duibhne story(I haven’t read these myself so I won’t rate them)
19-Arthurian legend 7/10
20-contine with a crash corse of medival british

Dad jokes are supposed to be jokes you can tell a kid and they will understand it and find it funny.
This sub is mostly just NSFW puns now.
If it needs a NSFW tag it's not a dad joke. There should just be a NSFW puns subreddit for that.
Edit* I'm not replying any longer and turning off notifications but to all those that say "no one cares", there sure are a lot of you arguing about it. Maybe I'm wrong but you people don't need to be rude about it. If you really don't care, don't comment.
