Stupid traffic jams making my 2 1/2 hour journey take over 4 hours.

How a 5-6 lanes each way motorway can be totally solid in both directions is beyond me. Especially when they've just finished widening it from 3 lanes to try to stop that happening.

When someone wants to follow you in their car... but they drive 80km when the limit is 100 and normal traffic speed is > 120km. It holds up traffic, is dangerous, and get everyone pissed off. I just wanted to drive away and leave them to find their own way home! Ggrrr.

Sorry, had a bad day!

eww macbeth! on that note, shakespeare annoys me.
and also when you go to a work party with lots of people who will be drinking but you can't drink because everyone knows how old you are

macbeth is awesome!!!!

she should have died hereafter
there would have been time for such a word
tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow
creeps in this petty pace from day to day
to the last syllable of recorded time,
and all our yesterdays have lighted fools
the way to dusty death. Out, out brief candle.
Life is but a walking shadow, a poor player
who struts and frets his hour upon the stage
then is heard no more
It is a tale told by an idiot;
full of sound and fury,
signifying nothing.

*from memory* how'd i do?!

shakespeare is overrated.

and also, my lit teacher thinks i'm obsessed with his tragedies, since i can recite hamlet entirely almost by heart. :lol:

that was her fault though, since she made the entire class read hamlet so much that most of us can recite the entire almost by heart. :roll:

i <3 macbeth and hamlet.

i hated the way my albertan highschool did shakespeare. we read hamlet. on our own. had a one hour lecture on it - then wrote the test. BORING!@!@!! not to mention most students just didn't get it that way.

I loved it in ontario (STA) in grade 11 where the teacher not only had us read macbeth - but had us do it in the best scottish accent we could muster!! I got really theatrical in that class. teehee.

i enjoy performing and reading shakespeare. :nod:

but yeah...he is a bit overhyped by some people, and taught poorly in many a highschool class.

there's.. no other famous passage from macbeth? what of

thrice the brinded cat hath mewed
twice, and once the hedge-pig whined
harpier cries, tis time! tis time!
round about the cauldron go
in the poisoned entrails throw
told that under cold stone
days and nights has 21
sweltered venom, sleeping got
boil thou first in the charmed pot
double, double, toil and trouble
fire burn and cauldron bubble

i memorized that in grade 8... i used to know the whole bit until the baboon's blood part... it's mostly gone now except for something about tartar's lips, i think

i hate shakespeare so much. romeo + juliet = torture

Post by **saman** » 1/3/2006, 1:47 am

i kinda like shakespeare. once you get into the rhythm and the story, it can be very engaging. then again, i've never had to memorize anything by shakespeare. hamlet's my favourite so far :nod:

there are so many others!! single lines, passages...Lady Macbeth's introduction is pretty well known.

I like the opening scene. (without marking dialogue:)

When shall we three meet again?
In thunder lightening or in rain?
when the hurley burley's done
when the battle's lost and won.
where the place?
upon the heath
there to meet Macbeth
I come Greymalkin
Paddock calls, anon
Fair is foul and foul is fair
hover through the fog and filthy air.
