Does this make the value of the book go up or down?
Considering it's in the public domain and a paperback, I'm guessing it's not an expensive book and I'm sure there are plenty of wrestling autograph collectors so, despite Hulk Hogan being a giant piece of shit, it probably gained a massive amount of value.
Sure, but just because someone will pay $1,000 for Taylor Swift’s shit doesn’t mean it’s valuable.
This is a simplistic view of value, and basically provides no useful information about anything. There are a lot of people you can trick into paying more for an item than it’s worth, but that doesn’t increase the value of that item.
Definitely down
Well you could try and sell it to a Republican, but he might get mad if he actually could read out. Something something made the Greeks gay blah blah Achilles "best friend" yada yada
Depends on whether the Hulkster is claiming to have written it or not, brother
No
Two questions.
Has he read The Iliad?
Can he read The Iliad?
Can he read?
Both no.
it's not for reading; just a real life stand-in for a Greek statue pfp
“Cause I bumped into him and all I had on me was this samurai sword. And you're not gonna not get Randy Jackson's autograph, right?”
I'm sure he'll claim to have given Homer the idea to write it and that the character Achilles is based on him
Last I heard, Hulk Hogan is no longer a heel. BUT he is kind of a racist, homophobic Trump-supporting heel in real life. Maybe that is his Achilles' Heel? Wow, there really are layers to this.
He may not be a heel, but he's definitely a shitheel.
You know it, brother
Didn't Achilles swing both ways?
Could have just smeared shit on the front page themself instead of finding a washed up celebrity to do it.
Also: is this one or two layers of ignorant, considering the poster misspelled the name of the book he took a photo of?
Eh, misspelling is easy to do.
That's Lattimore's translation, a good one although I think I prefer Fitzgerald. But a win all the way around
I'm guessing this was at Hogan's appearance at a Woodman's grocery store in North Aurora, IL, recently? What an incredibly high profile appearance.
