    Oh i suddenly get it - it’s about chronos who swallowed his children in case they turned out to be cooler than him, but his son Zeus tricked him by giving him a rock instead. Zeus later became king of the gods which is either super cool or extremely cringe depending on your perspective.

    • Right. Except that it was Zeus’ mother, Rhea who, tired of her husband eating all their sons, gave Cronus the rock in swaddling clothes and hid infant Zeus away in a cave.

      But, basically, right.

        Oh yeah yeah you’re right I couldn’t remember how Zeus substituted a rock for himself. Could probably do a pink panther remake about that one to be honest
