16 Greek Mythology Memes For The Myth Enthusiast

Or the meme enthusiast. Either way

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!

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
