Hold the World for Atlas
Atlas runs off for about an hour, and then returns with a golden apple. He says, "You know, I've been thinking about it and I think I'll let you take my place in holding the world. I've done it too long!"
Do you say:
1. "You know, the jokes on me! I guess I'll have to hold the world forever now, but, before you go, can you grant me one last request? Can you hold the world for me for a second, the position I'm holding it in makes it rub against my neck uncomfortably (they ALWAYS sympathize with you).
2. "Alright, I'll just hold the world, even though Zeus gave YOU this job (reverse-psychology, it ALWAYS works)"
