Shakespeare is the biggest load of cr ap that has ever been printed. How on earth can anyone in their right mind say that it's any good? It's unintelligible drivel. Every person who has read any of his cr ap, have to have it explained to them in modern language. I defy anyone to tell me they can read a full Shakespeare play, and perfectly understand it all, and genuinely call it a good laugh, or a good plot.

Are people who say they like his work, just pretentious pricks?

Would either of these descriptions inspire you to read the book?

An unforgettable student no one remembers...a pizza loving soccer player with a fuzzy alter ego...a possessed football player bent on world domination...Jessie never realized her senior year of high school would be so interesting.....

Jessie Connor is a Senior with a lot on her mind. In addition to her classes and graduation she's been subjected to the class bully whose locker is now next to hers, a best friend who has decided to go goth and parents whose marriage is unraveling at the seems. Despite all this the biggest distraction in Jessie's life is the new student, Wesley Peterson, former resident of France (gotta love that accent!) and cutie extraordinaire. Jessie knows that there is something different about Wesley that she just can't figure out. When mysterious deaths begin happening around Leeland High School Jessie suspects Wesley may have something to do with them. But, when she learns the truth about Wesley it is far stranger than she could have ever imagined.

How is this even possible?

When discussing arguments, truth and validity are two basic concerns. Is it possible for an argument to be valid if it is not truthful? Discuss these two concepts, using truth tables.

why is opera preposterous?...im willing to give everything at least one impartial hearing..but?

after repeated viewings and listenings...i still find nothing but elitist absurdity in opera...
i used to claim incomprehension about the value of country & western...and though i still detest it, i can now acknowledge its merit in the scheme of things .... but i cant with opera.

all i can think is that it was an absurd varient that got taken up by the wealthy ethically challenged classes, and outlived its proper 10 year fad lifespan, to somehow survive, much like some prehistoric fish...right up to the present day!

its an obsolete throwback to the days when there was no amplification available, and hence singers had to sing in an absurd unnatural way in oerder to compete with an orchestra..

i could ramble on, but i feel im already wasting too much breath on this old dinosaur called opera.
