Has british Literature helped you?

Has british literature helped anyone here? I have a final on it tomarrow and I don't understand a damn thing in it... I don't get how knowing about "My last Duchess" or any of these shiaty poems is ever going to help me.

Rant over.

Beowulf was pretty good, shakespeare's plays were good, I don't get these short poems. They don't tell a story, they are just the ramblings of strange men.
 
Waugh's "Brideshead Revisted" taught me that it's perfectly normal for me to still carry a teddy bear with me wherever I go.

Hobbes' "Leviathan" taught me why our emerging police state is a good thing.

Mallory's "Le Morte D'Arthur" showed me that incest rarely turns out well when children are involved.

Shakespeare's Sonnet 130 taught me better chat-up lines than even "Would you like a wormdo?"

Wow - got me women and jobs and enriched my life in many ways.
Do you not appreciate women, jobs, or British Lit?
 
One time back in college one of my roomates threw a Cobalt (I think?) book at me, and I winged a Brit Lit book at him. Nailed him good. In the back. It was sweet.

EDIT: And there shall be no quoting or sigging of the phrase "Nailed him good. In the back. It was sweet."
