He’s meeting Meg for the first time where she’s dealing with that Centaur? She calls him Nessus. Correct me if I’m wrong, but isn’t Nessus the centaur from the mythology that wound up killing Hercules? He told Hercules’s wife to put his blood on this shirt and it would give Hercules power but when he put it on it killed him because Centaur blood is poisonous, if I remember correctly.
Either there’s a small earthquake happening right now in SC or Zeus has climbed down from Mt. Olympus disguised as some weird animal to fuck some lady in my apartment complex.
If I know anything about Greek Mythology, you wanna give that back to Poseidon. Like now…
I made this for a class. Low production value but I think it’s pretty funny. The Origin of the Minotaur.
So, reading the Iliad today, I realized something. There’s a lot of scenes of battle where Achilles is killing EVERYONE! Like, there’s a scene where he just keeps killing everyone by the river and throwing the dead bodies in the river. He kills SO MANY people that he wound up CLOGGING river. Then the River God speaks up and says, “HEy dude, mind not clogging the river with dead people?” And then Achilles says “I’ll stop cloggin’ ya, BUT I WON’T STOP KILLIN’ ‘EM!” Then the River God was like “Oh man. Hey, other gods! Help the other guys!”. But he only probably really said half of it because then Achilles started STABBING THE FUCK out of the river god. It was CRAZY! Achilles is a badass.
BUT! He dies like a PUNK! He gets shot in the ankle with an arrow. And he’s OUT! And who else goes out like a punk despite being a badass? Boba Fett. I love that I realized this today. Fucking awesome.
Greek Mythology summed up in one line.
As someone who is taking Greek Mythology this year I can verify this to be true.
