    Good lord. Do I spy with mine eyes the spam? Oh, thine head no hair, beloved spammies. For whither the spam wanders, so dost the Resha. She, fair lady, attracted to the pungent fragrance of such beautiful philanderings doth skip gaily to the place of ceremony. She hath arrived. Greetings, good fellows. Well met and hail!

    I had a cuppa with the QUEEEEN today. Like, yeah, totally. Seriously. I mean, yeah.
    This subliminal message could be meant for YOU. But it's probably not. Move along ;D

    My good sir, Mister William Shakespeare created some of the most beautiful and eloquent words in thine engliah language. Verily, we must speak the good language in all of our days, so to not become lazy and sloppy in our writings.

    Yes, but Shakespearean language is not a necessity to sound formal.

    You may be correct, however, we must pay tribute to one of the greatest and most eloquent writers of our history.

    I concur with that assessment to the fullest extent. In fact, a few others and myself were saying just that only a few posts ago. We were talking about how sad it was that this form of conversing is considered old-fashioned and not accustomed to the existence that we carry out today. Oh, if only one could return to the time in which this tongue was commonplace. One could find oneself conversing with beings of the human race that were much more intelligent and affluent in demeanor. That thine mouth must be used to speak the profane tongue of today is sheer blasphemy. How my tongue aches with sorrow from the sad state that the world is in. When one is so lazy with thine speech that the letters "lol" must be substituted for laugh out loud. That "btw" is the replacement for by the way. Oh, how pathetic our world truly is.

    Alas, our society is quite frequented by masses of people who seek to reduce the length of their conversation as much as they are physically able. By speaking in those cursed "Ebonics", with little or no regard to enunciation or even the number of syllables present in a proper english word, it seems they believe they can hasten the course which they run to, hither and thither, pointlessly running needless errands which they use as excuses to hasten an end to polite conversation. If only once I could hear the word hello, enunciated clearly with over dramatic tone or a humorous tinge. Truely, my ears only percieve the bastardizations of "yo" or "ello" or even further extensions of "what's up" which in itself is ironic, consisting of equal syllables and a greater number of letters and words than a proper greeting would entail.

    And why dost thou say this? While it is verily true that Shakespeare can be somewhat zealous in his works, and exaggerate certain items to the point where they ar ludicrous, and at times reading his works can be less exciting than most anything you will find on this Earth, he truly is a great man. A masterful writer who hast verily set the standard for theatrical works and classical writing. I do readily wish that I was birthed into his time period, for the eloquent speech that was used in such times, is enough to swoon even the mightiest of men. For the romantic tongue of that time, is most appealing to mine ears.

    I believe that for dinner we shall have a rare african monkey that has been fed the finest liquers, as a result of which, he made such a ruckus, that roasting him in madiera sherry which French truffles is the only way that one will get any peace.

    Verily, the reason for the frustrations in reading his works is primarily due to the fact that none speak like him nowdays. Surely, if his speech were not so antiquated, it would be easier to read and thus more exciting.
