None of the mythologies known to us is as elaborate and weird as the Greek mythology. Many schools teach Greek mythology because it provides the foundation for much of western culture, introducing concepts of good vs. evil, identifying human virtues and vices and providing the framework for much of the literature that we grew up with. Deeply embedded in our lives, the furious and unforgiving Greek gods seem to be an excellent source for clever jokes.

As well as all this, they are just some damn good stories with badass characters. Are you familiar with the Greek mythology gods? Whether you have read the Greek myths or not, you are sure to understand a few of these killer funny jokes! From Medusa to Midas, Apollo, Zeus, and Achilles heel (or was it the elbow?), all the gang is represented. Can you get them all? Scroll down below to check it out for yourself!

Classical (!) smartass smattering. Troy was in war with the Greek. They (the greek) had the wooden horse made and "given" to Troy.

Well...if you are at war with Troy, you are greek and so it was you who built the wooden horse...?

YES. If you were at war with Troy, you did not "receive" the wooden horse but you were inside the wooden horse (as a greek soldier)...

It should more properly be called the Greek Horse, since it was the Greeks who built it and hid in it to get inside the enemy s city of Troy. (it's kinda backward above)

Well their bad sides are not "regular bad sides". Athena: " a young mortal is raped by my temple by Poseidon? Oh My Father, this is awful, such a shame! Let's punish her by transforming into a monster that can change men into stone!" Hera: "My husband had a kid wiht a mortal by make him her believe she was with her husband? Let's try to kill the kid by sending him a snake! Doesn't work? lte's drive him crazy so that he kill his wife and kids!".
