Title: A Fuckin Travesty!!
Post by: not_exactly_a_lightweight on January 27, 2010, 10:28:09 PM
Fellow Reverends!
Some rich fuck with too much time on his hands has taken our sacred scripture and crashed it into the mountain. And in English too.

here is just a sample

WOO
Rise, and speak wisely, man?but hark;
I see thy rug, as woven i?the Orient,
A treasure from abroad. I like it not.
I?ll stain it thus; ever thus to deadbeats.

[He stains the rug]

I don't know what to make of this, but I have a beer at hand brewed i'the great white north, so I am waiting for you to speak wisely...

why a travesty? i think it's great. just as with our very own Dude De Ching (www.dudeism.com/tao) some limber minded dude has taken the holy scripture and reinterpreted in a far out way, tying shakespeare as well into the dudeist embrace. i say far out.

ok ok I actually like it. The way I look at it, yon document is humorous, well written and now I have some new shit to quote.
The only problem (Whats fucked here) is my brain of small capacity, I may be mixing and confusing quotes from the gospel as well as metaphors... You jest; but clowns can speak in truth. My reeling thoughts yearn for such simple counsel.
You see its starting already. what can I do , a mere pin in the big game of the semis?
I'm Fucked, but nothing's fucked here.
Pass me an iambic pentameter beer, Gary.

I can abide with any media element that creatively furthers the dudeist philosophy, and if I may be defensive for a moment, hereby proclaim that in my formal education have read and was required to render opinions of the Bard. That said, his writings never blew my skirts up. I lean more towards Socrates and Twain, (the Clemens, not Shania). Never did dig olde english, you know, life goes on, can't be worried about that shit. So it falls short of travesty but close to "gives me a fuckin' headache". That's just like my opinion, man, sir. Okay then. :) :)

Dude, that's just, that's the stress talking, Dude.  So far we have what looks to me like a series of victimless crimes--

I'm glad you agree. Shania has a nice navel, in the parlance of our times.
