16 Greek Mythology Memes For The Myth Enthusiast
Ancient History Encyclopedia

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!

College is a crazy, beautiful, amazing whirlwind. It is highly popularized in television and movies, but not necessarily in the most accurate way. Yes, there's frats, dingy dorms, raging house parties—but there's also a lot that people fail to mention.

1. If you thought that you knew how to study, you're wrong.

All of your classes aren't taught every day, so professors aren't on your case constantly about reading and memorizing material. Once you get back that "questionable" first exam grade, you'll kick it into high gear and figure out what works for you

Girl With Bleached Hair

I've been a bleach blonde for over a year now, and let me tell you, it is a lifestyle. More hair appointments, longer showers, and special shampoo. But it is totally worth it!

1. Mentally preparing yourself to convince your hair dresser that white is the way to go.

2. Or the anxiety of what could go wrong by bleaching your hair at home.

3. You could either become a ginger

4. Or a pixie

5. The face you make in the mirror when you take off your towel to unveil the perfect white strands.

6. Taking a million selfies the day you bleached it, because you know your roots will be back in literally 2 days.

7. Having to get bangs or a big chop because your hair is so damaged.

8. Having orange highlights in between touch-ups.

9. Going out for a drink afterwards to debut your updated look.

Despite the struggles, you love your platinum blonde hair! You make sure Instagram knows it, too. You don't need a filter, because the color is flawless by itself!

Finals: just thinking about them gives you anxiety. Only two weeks separate you from summer, but they're the longest of the semester. There's a familiarity to this season, now that you have had so many testing cycles under your belt. But that doesn't quell the ever present stress to pass your finals and your classes. Even better, as a package deal during these wonderful weeks, you get to wake up early to study and you get to take exams that can begin anytime from 7 A.M. to 7 P.M. Now that we have established that this week is not fun, here are some super relatable moments that punctuate finals week.

I've been at this college thing for almost three and a half years, and while I thought that high school was truly the lowest point of my existence, I'm beginning to realize that it was a walk in the park. Like, I miss the days when the biggest white lie I told my parents was my made up excuse about being late for fourth period. These days, the white lies are a tad more complex, and as ashamed as I am to admit it, I've definitely told a few of these.
