Sibling Lambicus the Toluous

hercynian: pertaining to a task of mundane proportions, puffed up to an inordinate level of prestige or grandeur.

The term comes from the Greek myths of Hercynes, the younger brother of Heracles, who took credit for the epic labours of:

- cleaning the Limnean Excessively Neat and Rather Small Stables
- capturing the Certynean Fern
- devouring the Cretan Sirloin Steak
- cooking the Erymanthian bacon
- killing the Stymphalian birds - not the man-eating ones that Heracles killed, but the tame elderly penguins in the park on the other side of Lake Stymphalus

... there were other labours of Hercynes, but they're not worth mentioning.  Not that these ones were.
