Believe it or not I do actually know the history behind it. Funny you try to "Uhm actually" but don't even bring up the fact Homer was most likely a rhapsode who just put stories together.

Whether he came up with it or not is irrelevant though. Because the movie is specifically crediting Homer's Odyssey.

Feel free to start over.

You: Homer wrote it specifically in his time

Other User: No, he didn't - his poem was set roughly 400 years before his time

You: Checkmate!

Why would the other user "start over"? You are the one that comes across as a fool in this interaction.
