Sexy Satyrs, Today On Wikipedia!
I’m an unashamed Wiki lover. There’s so much great stuff to be found there, and if you want you can contribute your own knowledge, and help keep those interwebs woven.
Today’s featured article is on restoration literature, which isn’t that thrilling to me, but the graphic they posted with it sure caught my attention!
Although, reading that title, I’m having an “I don’t think that word means what you think it means” moment.
Since I have a couple of minutes left on my lunch break, I’ll tease you with some news…..I had an awesomely sexy holiday season! The man that gives clever roses played Santa, and then some. More details to come soon!

That’s awesome. I mean, I know spelling hadn’t been standardized yet at that time, but I can’t help but think of all those lewd pastoral paintings…
Given that it’s from the Restoration, the pun may actually be deliberate. Restoration Comedies are notorious for being bawdy.
…At least that’s what my mother always told me :)
I wish my mom told me things like that instead of “sit up straight.”
Although I don’t know the text in question (though now I shall certainly look it up), I would guess that the non-standard spelling of “satire” was intentional, if only because the word was spelled both ways equally often at the time period.
You know, just speaking as an 18th c Brit Lit P.h.D. candidate, and not an inconstant woman.

In the Hawaiian Language “Wiki” means quick or fast. It’s funny that you said “I’m an unashamed Wiki lover” not ashamed to be a quick (lei) lay. Lol I love that site too though it really is quick to have articl
