By far the funniest moment in Homer’s Odyssey is when Circe says, “Shall we have sex?” and Odysseus says, “You just turned all my men into pigs. You have the GALL to think I would sleep with you? Of course I will. Absolutely. But don’t do any weird spells”

They know the Odyssey is a story about people trying to get home after winning a war against the Trojans, right?

[Andrew Nadeau @TheAndrewNadeau]

Just saw The Odyssey, I loved it but was really surprised it featured so many Minions. Not saying it’s bad or inaccurate. I’m aware of its oral history, so there’s no way to know Homer didn’t include Minions. But it was like 98% Minions. Didn’t even mention Odysseus.

I know the Gods were working against him and all but have we ever considered Odysseus is just straight up stupid?

[Smells Like Teen Statism @BlueEightySix]

My favorite line from the Odyssey was when Odysseus reluctantly sighs and says, "I sure am tired of all this odysseein'."

I refuse to give up my em dash—just because people associate it with AI doesn’t mean I’m surrendering excellent punctuation.

I saw someone say, “No spoilers for The Odyssey.” Brother, you’ve had 3,000 years to read the book.

In honor of the World Cup final, one of the most moving and culturally accurate songs I have ever heard about 'España.'
