When we think of thunderstorm in terms of mythology we usually think of gods being angry, sad or at war. I wonder if there are cultures out there that think of thunderstorm are just Gods farting.

    In Norse mythology, it’s Thor riding his carriage.

      But he is riding his carriage during combat with the giants and then the actual lighting is when he throws his hammer? But I could be wrong, it was a couple of years since I studied this

Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.

If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.



Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.

If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
