Great win to step down to and enjoy retirement...
The middle ages being incredibly gross is a misunderstanding that goes back to the nineteenth century. In that era cities were overcrowded and very filthy and they concluded that in the 'dark ages' this would have been much worse.
It gets perpetuated by Hollywood always having someone have excrement out of a window or peeing in the street. Yet those were collected for fertilizer and as washing purposes (urine contains ammonia which is handy for degreasing wool).
Another common myth that keeps getting related is that people drank beer as the water was filthy. Water is the main ingredient in beer and people did know boiling water purified it.
Would it smell like roses? No not at all, nor does it in modern cities. There were stupid and filthy people, just like today, but usually people did make an effort of keeping clean.
But if you want really filthy cities, you have to go to the nineteenth century, where human waste was combined with a lovely dose of unbridled industrial pollution.

Indeed:
A "lasagna cell" is accidentally produced when salty moist food such as lasagna or sauerkraut is stored in a steel baking pan and is covered with aluminium foil. After a few hours the foil develops small holes where it touches the lasagna, and the food surface becomes covered with small spots composed of corroded aluminium
Three years clean. The intervals between cravings get bigger. I don't think the ever go away entirely.
The most hilarious part of Kant's work to me is in his anthropology.
In a footnote he said that there's two ways of studying it: in the first degree, by traveling and meeting people, and I'm the second degree by reading books by traveled people.
But Kant never traveled so he can study antropology in the first degree. So he adds a clause saying that if one lives in a busy port city (like Kant) one can study antropology in the first degree as all the people of the world travel to your city.
I find that level of pettiness from one of the greatest philosophers very endearing
What about Socrates?
Paris is in Texas too, so for some Texans 'going to Paris' will refer to that one instead.
