He probably had the greatest impact on the English language any one person has ever had, which is certainly something worth studying. What's not to get? ooh forgot what thread i was in. to contribute, a classic:

redweird posted:Shakespeare's plays were performed at theatres that had both upper class lords etc sitting in the stands and the unwashed masses down in the pit. Shakespeare thus wrote for both: he'd have some rockin soliloquiys but also hella dick jokes, there was a clown in most of the plays, ghosts and stuff, some murder. King Elizabeth I?

Crow Jane posted:I take comfort in the fact that we, as a species, have always found farts and dongs hilarious. It's somehow reassuring. Yeah when I get crap for laughing at/telling a dick joke I find myself reminding people of my favorite little factoid; that key joke is the oldest known written joke in the English language and it's a dick joke. The day dicks quit being funny is the day I don't want to live anymore.

I forget which Canterbury Tale it is, but Chaucer wrote one story where a woman tricks a man into kissing her boyfriend's rear end as he lets out a huge wet fart. It's beautiful.

Canterbury Tales is as low-brow as you get. It's true, just add a few hundred years and people will think that common=great. The Redneck Comedy Tour will be seen as classic genius in the year 2437.

Edit: apparently I was wrong. But to make up for it, I've brought the pertinent verses. Here's that part: quote:Derk was the nyght as pich, or as the cole, And there is also a fart joke: quote:This nicholas was risen for to pisse, John is the carpenter. Alisoun is the wife. Nicholas is a clerk who is boarding with them. And Absolan is another clerk who also would like to sleep with Alisoun. I'm pretty sure this is where I first learned the word "cuckhold". And here's a side by side middle English to modern English version, if anyone is interested. http://www.richardbrodie.com/Chaucer/Miller.html Bored has a new favorite as of 23:00 on Apr 23, 2015 |

That intersection sounded distinctive so I looked it up and it's the metropolitan hot spot of Grand Island, Nebraska! Even better is that the Howard Johnson that was at that location was still using the same phone number. One look and you can almost feel the pulse of the city...

And yea, basically Republicans are going shitnuts about it which is incredibly retarded considering it USED to be 600k per person.
