So the other day in my Beastly Books in Early England class I had to give a group presentation on Reynard the Fox. Incidentally, if you've never read it, I recommend checking out the Patricia Terry translation or dig up and Old William Caxton version; it's quite an interesting read. Anywho, before the class began I was sitting there talking to my friend when he said "I see you dressed appropriately today." I had no idea what he was talking about. He then said "The Foxes." That's when I remembered I was wearing the "Define Cynical t-shirt."

It was one of those weird situations where I knew I had to give the presentation and I knew I was putting on my Ozy and Millie shirt, but at the time I never put two and two together that I would be wearing a shirt with foxes to do a presentation about a narrative about a fox. I thought it was funny, but I was kind of hoping no one else would really notice. Sure enough, when I was done with my portion of the presentation, someone else in the class asked "and the shirt?" Since Ozy's grey and could pass as a wolf, all I could think to say was: "Yeah, I know. Well just pretend this one's Reynard and this one's Ysengrin." Now come on, I think that's worthy of some extra points for slight creativity, don't you?
So Ozy and Millie made a nice visual aid
