"One must imagine Sisyphus happy."

I've always wondered: What would have happened to Sisyphus if he just... Didn't push the boulder? Like he just walked away and let the thing roll all the way down?

I don't think I've ever read/heard the full, original story so if this is actually covered, I'm ignorant.

From what I've heard he gets attacked by harpies if he tries to stop.

[-] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 5 points 2 years ago

Surely he's buff enough to take on a swarm of harpies.

If I was Sisyphus, I would simply NOT push the boulder.

[-] Shialac@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Its never mentioned, he just has to keep pushing

[-] UntouchedWagons@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 years ago

I'm curious about this too.
