Somewhere in between watching a documentary on Helvetica and choosing to read Beowulf over supernatural sex and violence novels I turned into the Most Boring Person On The Planet! I hope it will pass soon.
(also: Beowulf is about 2 pages of fighting and killing the monster to 27 pages of having loot piled on you for killing the monster. Then there are songs and drinking for another 10 pages. I fail at poetry.)
Beowulf kills dude
Then gets rings from Hrothgar*
Geats be crazy, yo.
*pronounced "HUA-roth-gar" in my head due to my reading of translation notes.
