I suppose that begs the question, who was ancient Greece's Homer Simpson?
- wk_end 3mo agoSocrates, I'd say.
- Avicebron 3mo agoNooo...it has to be Margites from Homer's Margites :)
- marginalia_nu 3mo agoDiogenes of Sinope is maybe closer? He was sort of a living meme and there's a significant volume of apocryphal anecdotes of hijinks and pseudepigraphical writings, going on long after his death.
- marcus_holmes 3mo agoDefinitely Diogenes, 100%
- ben_w 3mo agoMainly βωμολόχος, I think? But also ἀλαζών in some episodes?
