Hate Mail

Oh, yeah, this topic is so much less fun than hanging around Duncan's heaping hatred on Hillary and whining and crying because she's actually winning the popular vote in the nomination contest.   Not to mention the other six to a dozen topics that have sustained most of the stultifingly repetitious dyscourse there.   Let me guess, they're going over what they're having for supper and watching on TV when it's not hour after hour of Hillary hating.  

I know that the Eschaton brain trust are, these latter days, mostly a bunch of self-congratulating, conceited fat-heads BUT SIMPS DID WHAT'S CALLED "QUOTE MINING".  Go read the sentences he clipped in their context to see what they mean. Or is that slight amount of reading too much like work?

  1. Yet another reason it's obvious Lennon and McCartney didn't write the songs of the Beatles -- nothing they ever released under their own names in their solo careers was anywhere near as good. QED.

    You're such a credulous fool to believe otherwise, Sparkles.

    1. I'm finding it mildly interesting how, after a life time spent in pop music scribbling, hanging out with people like you and after years of being exposed to both your .... um.... thinking and that of those who have a positive attitude toward you, that you figure any load of crap you come up with constitutes an argument, no matter how transparently stupid it is.

      Yet such stuff gets you a place in the "Brain Trust" while such as Ralphie and Gomez are excluded.

      Yep, by the time he's 60, if he's still going through the motions at Baby Blue or something like it, Duncan will be writing two sentence posts about why he's voting Republican.

  2. It's not an argument, you simple shithead. It's a PARODY of you, pointing out the ridiculousness of the crap you offer up in all seriousness.

    1. You don't know what the word "parody" means.

      I guess the entertaining aspects of this are just another thing that goes over your eternally 12-year-old head. It's a question that a large number of people have found entertaining, Tawin, that other noted elitist Walt Whitman - who declared, "I am firm against Shaksper—I mean the Avon man, the actor." There are large numbers of people who find it to be fun to read and think about, including such eminent actors Derek Jacobi and Mark Rylance. I'd rather have something in common with them than with a bunch of superannuated blog flies like you. I'll bet they're a lot more fun to talk to and be around, not least of which because they know things and think.

  3. Funny you should mention Derek Jacobi -- I met him once, in the 70s, and he had nothing to say on the subject.

    1. Oh, he's been very open about refusing to fall for the Stratfordian crap. He's regularly attacked by the Shakespeare establishment.

      Maybe he didn't talk about it because two words out of you and he realized you'are an idiot who it would be a waste to discuss anything serious about. I would imagine it doesn't take long to figure out what a dolt you are, in person. That is for people who aren't dolts, your fellow dolts wouldn't notice.

  4. Actually, Jacobi thought I was charming. As did Ian McKellan (not yet Sir, at the time) when I had dinner with him in NYC. He didn't say a word on the subject either.

    1. Well, both of them are accomplished actors, probably used to putting up an appearance of being interested in stupid bores.

      If you're too stupid to look to see that Jacobi is open about rejecting the Stratford illiterate as the author of the plays he acted in, that wouldn't surprise me at all.

      Here's something he said to people he had some reason to not believe were idiots:

      Like a growing number of interested parties, I have had grave doubts for some time now of the validity of the Stratford man's claim to have written some of the greatest literature the world has produced. Indeed, I must admit that it still seems incredible to me that one mind could possibly have encompassed such a monumental feat--but if so, that man is most likely to have been Edward de Vere--possibly with a little collaboration.

      Like you, I live in hope that an acceptable solution is possible and that this most fascinating riddle will finally be solved. My reactions are, of course, hardly academic, and I haven't the minutiae of knowledge or arguments at my fingertips like your good selves--I'm still studying and discovering--but, as an actor, my instincts and antennae tell me that only someone connected with the vicissitudes of stage production could have created these complex dramas. Is there indeed any incontrovertible, unequivocal evidence that Stratford Will was even an actor? But, of course, with doubt comes not discussion but accusation. We are labeled eccentrics and loonies (oh, if only old Thomas had himself used a pseudonym!).

      All these years of academic dedication lavished on the wrong man must be defended, at all costs it seems. Reputations tremble, an industry turns pale, and the weapons of ridicule and abuse are leveled and fired. But at least the battle lines have been drawn, and it is heartening to see how many recruits are enlisting in the Doubters Army: people, like myself, who cannot reconcile the illiteracy of Shakspere's offspring alongside his own deep and adept knowledge of medicine, art, music, geography, law and his almost nonchalant use of metaphor from, for example, sporting activities that were exclusively the pursuit of the aristocracy--not to mention his mastery of history, languages and the intricacies of survival at court. The only evidence of Shakspere's literary life was produced after he died and is open to dispute. Nothing, while alive, apart from some shaky signatures, puts a pen in his hand.

  5. Meanwhile, in further proof that Lennon and McCartney didn't write the Beatles songs they're credited with -- why do you think Michael Jackson was so easily able to buy the Beatles catalogue for next to nothing? Obviously, he had the goods on them and was blackmailing them.

    1. More stupidity which you will call "parody". I haven't noticed that the cute mophead or Yoko are short of money.

      Why don't you go bore the Eschabots for a while, I've got things to do. I don't need more of you to remind people what an ass you and your posse are.
