Hate to break it to you, but Vicious Mockery requires a saving throw.
So a nat 20 would cause the spell to fail.
But he's not a poet.
Greek poetry isn't my strong point, but wiki says
Hipponax (/ˈhɪpənæks/; Ancient Greek: Ἱππῶναξ; gen. Ἱππώνακτος; fl. late 6th century BCE),[1] of Ephesus and later Clazomenae, was an Ancient Greek iambic poet who composed verses depicting the vulgar side of life in Ionian society
Do you know the dude in the lower part of your post, the one who isn't a rapper?
No, I only know him as the 'sick burn' reaction meme, which is appropriate to a guy who burns people so hard they commit suicide.
The picture is from a satirical rap battle where the guy in question says the absolute dumbest shit, and everyone loses their mind over it. One of his refrains(?) is the line "but I'm not a rapper".
Video is worth a watch.
Is this because you're from another part of the internet or because I'm old? I don't want to explain the joke :p
Another part of the internet, I think, someone else explained it. XD
Ephesus and later Clazomenae
These places are currently called Urla and Efes and located in Western Turkey.
