Send it, Muse, of big brain Odysseus, who took mad Ws, after he wriggidy-wrecked Troy’s secret citadel. Right did he swipe for many honies, and legit was his cred, yet bad were the vibes he suffered on the wide sea, and real was the struggle for his own life and the homecoming of the squad. Even so, he could not save his boat bois, ass tho he busted; they were srsly fucked by their own clowning, fools, who snatched the oxen of sunboi Helios, ye tho Odysseus told them to take several seats bc those cows were hella sus. Thus was canceled the day of their homecoming. O goddess, fam of Zeus, share the tea.
*I uhhh. I made another one*

Romans: Um, no, he’s totally problematic, he’s definitely evil
Homer: No!!!!!! He’s a good guy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Modern readers: Oh so he’s like, an antihero, cool
Homer: Absolutely not. Now you’re just making up words

I’d also like to point out that in the story Helen is the only one to feel any guilt or blame regarding the war. She feels absolutely terrible that there’s a huge war being fought over her. No one else feels any guilt whatsoever.

Most people reading The Odyssey: Man, these guys are rich - they have so much gold and silver.
Me, a massive history nerd, reading The Odyssey: Holy SHIT! How many fabrics in this are referred to as PURPLE?!? These guys are LOADED!!!
