Wine, women, and song? I prefer sex, drugs, and rock'n'roll.

I respect him for marrying Ariadne after what she went through but his thing with the stick or branch was weird and I’d like to forget it

I knew a band called Dionysus Disciples. I wouldn't be able to say that sex, drugs, and rock&roll weren't key components for this band.

(especially since the first song of theirs that comes to mind was called "Coke burning over my glans". I'm marking this comment as mature just in case.)

Can I get solitude, silence and a warm mug of tea instead?

Turns out people who want a calm existence don't build statues and temples and build a following to celebrate their lifestyle.

Or Hestia. Those would probably fit under the domain of hearth and home.

Sex, drugs, and rock'n'roll is just the modern equivalent of wine, women, and song.

“It was more than six drugs.”

What "modern"; that's how we played it in the '80s (now the classical period, apparently, if the gen-Ys & Zs are to be believed (they're not!))

Dionysus was worshipped around 1300 BCE.

The phrase "wine, women, and song" is at least 400 years old, and is probably much older.

I'm pretty sure that modern doesn't mean what you think it does, at least not in this context.

The classical period is from 1750 to 1820. The modern period is anything after that. A subset of modern would be "contemporary" which refers to everything after WW2.

Oh, I know... I was being sardonic, or some subset of sarcastic. . . To my being, the '80s is contemporary still. . .

Sounds like a party to me, now that I'm so slowed down by time. . .

Yep. Here's an example: I went to the Seattle symphony with my SO after taking a gummy to see them perform Danny Elfman scores. That's about as sex, drugs and rock-'n'-roll as I get nowadays
