    https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caesar_salad

    The Caesar salad was invented in Tijuana, Mexico, by Italian-American restaurateur Caesar Cardini in 1924. It is a green salad made with romaine lettuce, croutons, Parmesan cheese, and a dressing typically containing olive oil, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, and anchovies.

    Fun historical fact: Caesar was stabbed due to his unstoppable salad addiction. The senate had to make up all that stuff about his lust for power to justify the crime.

      I heard it was the sudden drop in crouton availability that drove up bread prices and led to a plebian uprising?

        Yes that’s correct. This is actually where the phrase “croutons and circuses” comes from.

    When I was younger, I used to try to tell a joke, when people asked me how old I am. I’d answer, “I’m twenty-five”, while obviously being much older. They’d chuckle and I’d say, “No, really, I am twenty-five years old.” They’d scoff, and I’d say, “I’m also fifty-two years old.”

    It didn’t work, so I stopped saying it.

      Ah, you need to make the joke horrible. What’s the best thing about fucking twenty seven year olds?

A place to meme about the glorious ROMAN EMPIRE (and Roman Republic, and Roman Kingdom)! Byzantines tolerated! The HRE is not.

RULES:

  1. No racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, bigotry, etc. The past may be bigoted, but we are not.

  2. Memes must be Rome-related, not just the title. It can be about Rome, or using Roman aesthetics, or both, but the meme itself needs to have Roman themes.

  3. Follow Lemmy.world rules.

Not sure where to start on Roman history?
