I'm going to get smote down one day.

elvenpirateladyPrometheus the Emo, anyone? I can just see him playing A Simple Plan and wearing terribly thick eyeliner as the eagle tears out his liver. (Alright, perhaps he has an excuse. But still!)
Zeus is a playa with all his ladeez, although he'd be broke in the modern world with all the child support payments.
Apollo? Apollo is the hillbilly cow farmer who is entranced by the sounds of the newly-created lyre that Hermes made, mostly likely a banjo... anything made from cow gut and a turtle shell can't sound that good.
And, ah, the Egyptians. Worshipping a dung beetle? Truly classy. The place must be a breeding ground for James Bond villains, since one of their gods is called Hor-Aton-Ra, pronouned Whore-Atom-Ray. "With this Hor-Aton-Ra I will rule the world! MWAHAHAHA!"
I won't even mention that one of their kings has a name that translates as 'mighty catfish'. Honestly, what could a catfish do to enemies? Swim at them? Make the soldiers die laughing?
(In other words, the Greek gods will smite me down one day, the Egyptian gods are going to hate me, and Classical Studies = historically verified crack.)
