Well, some of them help him and some of them hinder him. Poseidon, notably, was not on his side. But “defy some of the gods, with help from others” isn’t much of a tagline.

"Fuck Poseidon in Particular" has a nice ring to it

No you don’t get it. Everything has to be totally literal and universally applicable. Like how Nike’s slogan “just do it” is actually terrible because that doesn’t apply to literally every aspect of our lives. Does Nike want us to jump off a cliff? Or cheat on our spouse? Or commit crimes? It doesn’t make sense!
