16 Greek Mythology Memes For The Myth Enthusiast

The Internet finds the most random things to be hilarious: cats making weird faces, existential crisis jokes and, most of all, memes (So many memes). There are memes about everything, but some of my personal favorites are about Greek mythology: gods, goddesses and heroes, like Athena, Zeus and Odysseus. The messiest group of characters you will ever come across.

1. Some Greek myth posts are lighthearted and fun.


I don't know if Heelys are even cool anymore, but this is awesome.

2. Some are extremely relatable.


Laziness is a feature shared by all peoples in the past and present.

3. If this is not me, I don't what is.


A.k.a. me after every exam.

4. This might be the real reason Persephone ate the pomegranate.

I would stay in the Underworld, too, if it meant I didn't have to finish my 20-page final essay.

5. Sooo many myth memes are about Zeus and his...relations.

You name it, Zeus has slept with it: Gods, demigods, mortals and animals.

6. Here is another one.

8. I love when memes are politically up-to-date.


I doubt Trump has ever read a book, let alone could make references to The Odyssey.

9. Or feminist-inclined.


This isn't technically a myth, but it's too hilarious to leave out.

10. Sometimes Hestia, the goddess of the hearth, is the only sane god on Olympus


Hestia is definitely the Mom Friend, even though she's not even the goddess of motherhood.

11. And sometimes Achilles is the least chill of all the heroes.


Spoiler alert: he loses.

12. And then all the rest of the memes are all about Odysseus.


You have to know that one scene with the Cyclops pretty well to get it, but what happens is - actually never mind, the next post tells you about it.

13. So many "Nobody" jokes


Look how cute cartoon Odysseus is at the bottom! Much cuter than the Homer version of this story.

14. A classic meme for a classic piece of literature.


I'll still never get why like 100 dudes all tried to court Penelope at the same time. That'd be too much effort for me, man.

15. Even Athena can't handle Odysseus sometimes.


Poseidon hates Odysseus as much as I hate people who diss Harry Potter. So, a lot.

16. And my personal favorite, a Parks & Rec and Odyssey crossover. What could be better?


So, next time you're down because you've been trying to get home from the Trojan War for ten years, or because Zeus turned your girlfriend into a tree, just look over your favorite Greek memes and you'll feel better in no time!

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
