In 2023 I plan to steer every conversation, gently but firmly, back to Greek mythology.

What about you?

by Anonymousreply 43December 4, 2022 6:13 PM

Please sit by me, OP. We can chat all night.

by Anonymousreply 1December 1, 2022 3:18 PM

Great idea OP.

Far more interesting than anything going on these days anyway.

by Anonymousreply 2December 1, 2022 3:18 PM

THIS IS AN AWESOME IDEA! Why don’t I know more people who think like you, OP?

Have you heard about Hephaestus’s slut wife Aphrodite who had an affair with Ares?

by Anonymousreply 4December 1, 2022 3:45 PM

R4 Well, Hephaestus was pretty lame, literally.

by Anonymousreply 5December 1, 2022 3:50 PM

Come, OP, and let us together enjoy the sacred liquids of Dionysus, and leave the tiresome Earthly politics to the chatterers.

Gently but firmly, OP? Are you toying with me?

by Anonymousreply 7December 1, 2022 4:43 PM

R7 But of course!

I plan to steer every convo back to how I look ten years younger than my age.

That’s a Sissyphean task, OP…

Just don't ask 'em where they're from.

R10 Ha! Not for Hercules!

For the fifth labor, Eurystheus ordered Hercules to clean up King Augeas' stables. Hercules knew this job would mean getting dirty and smelly, but sometimes even a hero has to do these things. Then Eurystheus made Hercules' task even harder: he had to clean up after the cattle of Augeas in a single day.

Carry on, OP.

R4 Hephaestus tried to fuck his sister. While making a breastplate (whore!) for Aegis. Huge red flag.

Aphrodite dodged a bullet.

Op, you don’t need no psychiatry. Cuddle up on the couch with me. We can talk all night for free.

by Anonymousreply 15December 1, 2022 5:56 PM

Good for you, and in the spirit of solidarity, I'll do the same!

by Anonymousreply 16December 1, 2022 6:18 PM

By Jove, OP!

by Anonymousreply 17December 1, 2022 6:22 PM

I predict I’ll do the same but no one believes me.

by Anonymousreply 18December 1, 2022 6:30 PM

Whatever, OP - just as long as you love your mother.

by Anonymousreply 19December 1, 2022 6:37 PM

As long as we avoid discussing my unemployment, dwindling funds and growing shame, I will be thrilled to discuss Greek mythology, OP.

In 2023 I’m going to start professional weaving because I’m that good.

by Anonymousreply 21December 1, 2022 7:14 PM

R20 Remember that the God of wealth Plutus was blinded by Zeus so that he would distribute his gifts equally and not only to the righteous or meritorious.

That you are low in funds should not be a source of shame. It's a crapshoot.

Hera's pussy stinks!

Way more normal than Qanon. "Nutty weather we're having, huh?" "It's the elites who control the weather!"

by Anonymousreply 24December 1, 2022 7:24 PM

R24. Everyone knows I control the weather.

I'm into Roman myself.

Cool! I love myth mythology!

by Anonymousreply 28December 1, 2022 8:16 PM

R26, is Roman his first name or last?

I sure hope you don't live in NYC OP.

There's a Great Dane by this name at the dog park so you caught me a bit off guard.

2023 and me? Hmmm let’s see…. How about a whole new me with a new attitude!

by Anonymousreply 40December 3, 2022 4:43 PM

R40. What kind of new attitude? And how will you work that into every conversation?

by Anonymousreply 41December 3, 2022 5:16 PM

Can we form a chat group, OP?
