That's true. You're dead right, and so was, eh, Flann, or Brian, or Myles, when they were sober, which was rare. However, when they were alert they were very sharp. Old English is indeed what many of us speak.
How do you know we're speaking Old English? It might be merely Middleaged English, or Thirtysomething English, or even Teen or Toddler English to someone several millennia down the road (in the perhaps unlikely event that there'll be roads then, or humans to walk them). Maybe they'll all be speaking Old Chinglandic, an amalgam of Chinese, English and Icelandic.
