Grendel: Real Ultimate Power!
Are you stressed out from school? I am stressed out from school. And thus, obviously, I went to

Grendel Comes To Troll

Im reading the poem Beowulf at school, and the teacher gave us some questions to answer and i'd really appreciate it if you help me out :)

[snipped questions]

( You can answer all or any of the questions you choose :) Thanks!)

Oh, you can imagine how this was received!

Other than the obligatory "This is not a homework community!", we have:

- zeppelin imagery
- answers guaranteed to give you an A++++++ grade!
- Beowulf has Real Ultimate Power!
- "I can see Russia from my house!"
- It's tough being a savior
- the student's teacher showing up (except not really)
- Jedis and
- more general snark

(And, for bonus lols, Grendel Action Figure)

There's more. It's fun. The post is older - from October, and I'm fairly positive the OP is a troll, but I'm certain I'm not the only person who has broken-brain syndrome from uni-work and can appreciate this.

	I've tried reading it out loud and I'm still not getting it. Is this joke contingent on knowing Old English? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Pretty much, yeah. dr_beowulf is answering the OP's first 2 questions, but if s/he doesn't know Old English or have a good lexicon, the comment won't be any help. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	No, that is the actual text of the poem as far as I can tell -- the joke is that Dr. Beowulf is giving correct answers, but in such a way that they couldn't possibly be helpful to the OP, as she presumably doesn't speak Old English. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Ahhhhhhhhhh. I see that my brain has farted in trying to process it. (Reply to this)(Parent)
