TIL: Today I Learned

[Takhisis]

In English, 'Duke' is a name…

 

[Kyriakos]

So he was essentially named King King?

No. Why do you think he is known as The Bulgar Slayer? Sounds cooler than Basileus Basileios.

Anyway, his full title was Basileios B', Basileus Romaion, and some vicegerent of god on earth stuff.

"Hello, my name is King King, the Bulgar Slayer..."

 

[Zack]

More like King Keeng.

 

[Arakhor]

Konstantinos, in God faithful, Autocrat and Emperor of the Romans!

 

[MagisterCultuum]

I'd think it would be more like "King Kingly."

 

[Tahuti]

"Hello, my name is King King, the Bulgar Slayer..."

Is it me, or do imagine the one saying this looking like a gay magical creature with a very high pitched voice?

 

[Takhisis]

They do sometimes call it 'Greek love'.

TIL magical creatures can look gay

 

[Kyriakos]

TIL magical creatures can look gay

Because friendship.

 

[Takhisis]

Is magic

Well, I was more like aiming to an AAA meeting, except instead of angry alcoholics, you have several generations of Roman and Byzantine emperors gathered in a room.

/me giggles

I think you meant AA meeting. AAA is a motor club! Technically a whole group of affiliated motor clubs divided by region, but that's just an administrative thing.

 

[Takhisis]

I thought AAA meant America's AntiCommunist Association. Well, everyone knows that public transportation is one of the more despicable features of Communism, so it makes sense.

 

[Gori the Grey]

Hello. My name is Gori and I'm a driver.

But I'm sure I can correct that with a twelve step program.

 

[Takhisis]

TIL that putting too much salty peppers is possible.

 

[gay_Aleks]

MY MOUTH IS FIREEEE!

yes yes it is oh god the pain

 

[Takhisis]

Drink milk.

 

[Kyriakos]

He only has pickled milk

 

[gay_Aleks]

Too late for milk. And too lazy. Fortunately, I have orange juice. The thing is, now my lips feel horrible.
