In the tradition of The Waste Land and The Bible... the first eleven lines of Beowulf in LOLcat:

Hay thar! We can has knowingz of teh c00lniz of
teh Spearcats, teh kingz of teh pplz, in teh old daiz,
how teh prinzes wuz all FTW!1!! \o/
Wif ninja cats Scyld Scefkitteh

an skared lots of pplz. Aftur he wuz
founded bukkitless he got cookies cos he was sad kitteh,

so all teh doggiz in teh hood
an cross teh see did whut he sed
an gave him cheezburgrs. Taht wuz gud king, srsly.

Beokitteh, 1 tru !1
Indeed, we have heard of the glory of
the Spear-Danes, the kings of the nation,
how lords did courageous things in bygone days.
With bands of warriors Scyld Scefing
robbed many nations of their mead-seats
and terrified men. After he was
discovered destitute he was comforted,
grew under the skies and prospered in honor,
until each of the neighboring people
over the whale's path had to obey him
and pay him tribute. That was a good king.

Beowulf, 1-11

In other news: Not that translating into LOLcat isn't productive, but I really need to get things done tonight.

.eta!: Before I get to all that, if you're interested/so inclined, OTW membership has opened! Cool.

O HAI! CAN HAS MOAR BEOKITTEH.
