5. It's a Family Guy reference, but no one's picked it up. |
|
Someone's supposed to say "No you're not. I am. And you know nothing of my work."
I'm well aware of the difference between Neptune and Poseidon.

Aren't you actually a ROMAN God? Isn't it true that Poseidon is the Greek God of the sea and that you are basely attempting to manipulate the Greek vote?
on edit: Or is this cheap stunt a crass attempt to sway the Roman vote?
And isn't it true that you are the father of the bastard Demigod Diebold begotten from your rape of the Goddess Democracy?

would be my pick. And my son briefly thought that we worshipped Zeus, etc. since we are not particularly religious. It was interesting to explain to him that people no longer worship the Greek gods, well, as far as I know. ;)_

23. Bacchus is the Roman name for Dionysus |

They didn't really create anything that the Greeks didn't invent. They just translated it to Latin.
And in English we don't say "I had a really Dianysian event last night." We say "That was a real Bacchanal." I guess it's just that the Romans are more recent than the Greeks.

were crude, uncivilized pigs in comparison to the Greeks. Really! Dionysian nights sound so much more mysterious and romantic, don't you think? ;)
anyway, I'm Hera and if I say it is...then it is! :P
