Here is a Roman D20 carved from crystal in the 3rd century AD. These were used, historians suspect for telling fortunes. However, no one can *prove* they weren't used for some kind role playing game. Which is what getting a fortune told with a die is kind of like anyways if you ask me.
"roll for initiative"
At least we know how this polyhedron was used. The "Roman Dodecahedrons" continue to confuse people. But, I don't think that is all that shocking.
There are many durable but baffling objects.
Attached: 1 image I got one for my husband and he loves it. Can you guess what it's for? (If you love a 'big red robe' or 'number one factory' you may not participate in this guessing game, just be quiet and see what they say)
Personally, I find coffee to taste like really-burnt tea and won't touch the stuff. But I drink tea all the time. XD

You know, I've been told that once or twice.
But I last tried coffee at the actual plantation it was grown at, with everyone around me swearing it was the best coffee they'd ever tasted, and the best I could do was keep myself from making faces at every sip, so I think I've concluded I've done enough to seek out good coffee. I'll stick with my tea. 😂

That said I do have a friend who works at a local coffee roaster with a good reputation, so I could probably get him to hook me up with some good stuff, if I so desired.
Yeah, haha, I don't expect I'd do very well on my own first attempt, I'd want him to show me how it's done. ;)
…I'll stick with my tea, then. XD
