So true. And the comment up above, "So dam true" is referring to the Titan's Curse where Percy, Grover, Thalia, and Zoë go to Hoover Dam, and Zoë says, let's find the dam snack bar (like the snack bar of Hoover Dam) and Percy, Grover, and Thalia just totally crack up. They're tired, they've fought monsters for a week, they're hungry, and it sounds like damn so they start laughing like crazy. The thing is... Zoë's the lieutenant of the Hunters of Artemis, which means she's been alive for roughly two thousand years (they get immortality for vowing to be a maiden forever). She uses Old English, so she doesn't get it. And since then it's been a Percy Jackson inside joke. (In The Mark of Athena, Percy actually references it--Piper talks about the Doors of Death giving monsters a Nexus lane into the land of the living, and Percy says, "We've got a dam hole." When Piper asks, Percy just says, "Nothing. Inside joke.")
And then I found this on the fandom and I'm just like "Them" when I see the "So dam true". :D
