I'm now imagining the first book of Bede's History

Heh heh, I think an LOLcats summary of part of the History would be something like:

Book I.15
Britons: We can has island?
Angles & Saxons: NO CAN HAS! An we will can has bukkits 2.
Britons: Nooo they be stealin our bukkits!
Angles & Saxons: we r in charge nao, n00bs. lol.
Bede: Is liek teh Chaldeans, srsly.

Book III.25
Colman: Dis is how we be calculatin Eestur.
Wilfrid: UR DOIN IT WRONG, n00b. Peetur sez is must be liek THIS.
Colman: We has maded this calendar an not eated it for long tiem nao an we lieks it.
Wilfrid: FAIL.

Book IV.19
Ecgfrith: O hai, Aethelfryth! I wantz teh sex0rs nao, pls.
Aethelfryth: No can has! I is pwned by Ceiling Cat, kthxbai.

By contrast, I think Chaucer would have gotten a serious kick out of the Canterbury Tales done in LOLCat.

He would have loled (http://houseoffame.blogspot.com/2007/05/i-can-hath-cheezburger.html).
