WORD OF THE DAY! 10/2/13!
herculean [her-kyoo-lee-uhn]
adjective
1. Something requiring the strength of Hercules, or other considerable power, to accomplish.
2. Having enormous strength, size, power, etc.
3. Of or pertaining to labors of Hercules.
EX. It sure seemed like a herculean effort for JonTron to finally get around to posting a new video for the "Season 2 of JonTron" he promises us, amirite!? But seriously, jk, this video is a return to form for our master of the whimsical video game review in the format of a theme montage of mostly monstrous games based on the Greek mythic hero, Hercules.
If you need another reason to get excited... JonTron dances.
Also, "Who put the 'glad' in gladiator?" is an obnoxious anachronism that has no place in the Disney's Hercules film, which has plenty worse anachronism, because gladiators... ARE ROMAN!

EX. The fact that Ariel and Hercules are both related to the Christmas tree of f***ery of the Greek pantheon's family is not really that surprising to me. On the other hand, the following is a revelation that I'm not sure I can accept.
