Oedipus

So after reading the story I find that it is really funny how half the people are deadly afraid of the prophecies, and then Jocasta thinks all of them are false!

It turns around to bite her in the ass when all of the prophecies come true in the end and she later on hangs herself and Oedipus stabs out his own eyes with her robe pins so he'll never have to see his mom/lover again.

Then in the next part I think it is really funny how Oedipus says he'll never side with his sons again because they didn't help him when he was exiled. But it was Oedipus himself that told Creon to send him away...

So this is most definately a tragidy....Haha
