I’m realising I have so many bizarre Shakespeare related stories. For English, we had to do a ‘fun’ summary presentation. Somehow one guy ended up convincing our group to write and later perform to the class a parody version of uptown girl. This was accompanied by my recently ex-boyfriend of two weeks (who still was not speaking to me or sitting any less than three seats away from me - even if no one else was sitting there) playing the song on flute. ON FLUTE.
I would say that luckily that no one could hear us over the damn flute. However, another girl had made a karaoke style PowerPoint video creation, so that everyone could see our terrible lyrics on the screen clearly.
a sample of what I can remember:
Capulet girl She's been living in her Capulet world I bet she's never had a Montague guy I bet her momma never told her why
it is the most dreadful thing I’ve ever been a part of and I did high school theatre .
honestly I can’t wait for Shane to be a guest on puppet history!!! though we know Shane likes history so he might not be a contestant - maybe like a teachers aide (TA)??? I mean the professor has been doing this a long time now! It makes sense he’d take on a PHD student or such!
The stinging nettle (Urtica dioica): A bee sting in plant form. Both give you acidic stings, but whilst a bee will die after a single sting, the nettle holds no such melodrama. Importantly, the underside of the nettle has no stinging needles - using this, a nettle leaf can be folded and eaten. Quite delicious, but like oysters, it is best to only chew them just enough to experience the flavour. Unlike oysters, it is an established tea.
The dock leaf (Rumex obtusifolius): The apologetic, unassuming, elder sibling of our funny little trio. Never too far behind the stinging nettle, growing in the same habitat, it is a welcome gift for the unlucky or unwary. Simply crushing it's flat, broad leaf, arranged in small clumps, low to the ground, and rubbing the remains on the sting will greatly ease the pain. Unfortunately, as some kind of earthy punishment for irresponsible agricultural practices, or maybe it's simply prone to seasickness, it did not accompany the stinging nettle on its torment to Australia.
(Important note: it is NOT a certified doctor, and, in fact, does not hold any kind of medical certificate or degree).
The dead nettle (Lamium purpureum): Surprisingly, edible, and harmless enough. It's pretty pink-ish-purple flowers will ruin its disguise in certain seasons, along with its ever-present diminutive size. The dead nettle relies on the terrifying reputation of the stinging nettle to warn away anyone and anything. Yet, it you touch one, you will find no sting. Like if the spirit of the plant it pretends to be manifests in that sting, it finds itself lacking something it will never achieve. However, for the dead nettle, once that sting is proven absent, it's likely already dead - possibly uprooted for its uncanny skill of growing in driveways.

cluster B does not deserve any of this like srsly. or like any mental health issue or thing.
just… op is so right and it’s sucks that they’re right
There are only two mental illnesses according to people on the internet:
Innocent bean syndrome: You can never do wrong and got no agency. You will be infantilized on every occasion and are treated as a quirk.
Bad person syndrome: You are bad and an abuser. Your presence kills people.
I’m manifesting!
I’ll post some photos later but I read a hellboy Christmas special I got in a mystery comic pack and it started my hellboy obsession!
the art was so pretty and it was a great introduction too!
Are there any Xmas story in comic books you enjoy reading? Mine would have to be the story where Damian bought Jon a console for Xmas. Holiday Special 2016
