minus-squareLeadersAtWork@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up18·edit-26 months agoThere are lots of great answers here so I want to post something entirely silly and much much more recent: About 8-9 years ago someone on Reddit transcribed and revised the entirety of Edgar Allen Poe’s The Raven to instead be about an Emu.
