Why didn't the eagles just fly him to Ithaca?

They could roll boats over it with logs

That's just an excuse he used on Penelope, in reality he could go home any time he wanted but he prefer not to so he could plunder cities, get drunk with his buddy, fuck whores

Because a goddess took him as a dildo for most of that time, and if there ever was a theme in Greek stories, it's that gods' wills are laws and they will have their ways.

>sorry babe i was caught in traffic for ten fuckin years

He had a lot of sex. Consensual as well as non-consensual sex. Have YOU ever had sex, anon(ette)? I don't think you have had anything akin for you'd understand why it did take him so long to return to his cumswapper of a wife.

That's nothing, it took the Jews forty years for what is a 6 hour car ride LMAO

don’t think you’ve had sex either with the way you write

He pissed off Poseidon, who called storms upon Odysseus' ships and blew them off course. He was also stuck on Calypso's island for seven years because she wouldn't let him leave.

Couldn’t fit anything better into the hexameter. Just sounded nice this way.

Yeah, but that wasn't a straight trip.

Not only did they walk slower in the old ancient days (because they were lazier) but they were also a lot SMALLER--thus took SMALLER steps thus were sooooo slow. Imagine ants and then translate that to humans. Don't even get me started on the boats they "built".

the whores were still women, the boyfucking was for long-term wards, which you can't have on an adventure

Also Penelope had 50 simps.
