'''A Hundred Years Ago''' was a poem written by [[Rodrick Heffley]] for an essay that [[Mr. Huff]], the history teacher at [[Westmore Middle School]], assigned.

Unfortunately, this trade had two consequences; the first was that Rodrick failed the essay due to it being a poem, not an essay, and the second was that Greg paid Rodrick in "fake" Mom Bucks money he stole from a Monopoly board game at Rowley's house rather than money he earned. | '''A Hundred Years Ago''' was a poem written by [[Rodrick Heffley]] for an essay that [[Mr. Huff]], the history teacher at [[Westmore Middle School]], assigned.

A Hundred Years Ago was a poem written by Rodrick Heffley for an essay that Mr. Huff, the history teacher at Westmore Middle School, assigned. When the power went out at the Heffley residence, Rodrick sold this poem for $20,000 in Mom Bucks or $200 in real money. Unfortunately, this trade had two consequences; the first was that Rodrick failed the essay due to it being a poem, not an essay, and the second was that Greg paid Rodrick in "fake" Mom Bucks money he stole from a Monopoly board game at Rowley's house rather than money he earned.
Rodrick's Poem
In the Book and Online Book
I accidentally cut my dick off. Oh god, oh fuck, I'm transgender.
uh
yeah
uh
uh
sometimes I sit and play with my clit
that's about it
dad kicked me from the house
greg came with me
im gonna sell him to that Columbian family because he brought a diary instead of money.
In the Movie
Sometimes I sit and wonder
About stuff I do not know
Like, what the earth was like a hundred years ago
Did cavemen ride on dinosaurs?
Did flowers even grow?
Did spiders rule the earth?
Were deserts filled with snow?
There were no books or humans So how are we to know,
What the earth was like a hundred years ago.
Trivia
- This poem is logically impossible. Rodrick described scenery that might have happened at the beginning of the Earth, rather than events that happened in the 1900's, or nonsensical things such as "giant spiders ruling the Earth." It would have made more logical sense if Rodrick had titled this poem "A Gazillion Years Ago."
- The poem from the movie is slightly different than the one from the book.
