Shakespearean Insults Are Better

I thought of all people, you all would enjoy this the most. The first video is a song about the horrid butchering of the English language on Youtube to the tune of 'Baby Got Back.' It only says a wordy-dird once, I believe, but otherwise, it's clean. (And hilarious.)
The second is a video from Brotherhood 2.0 about how Shakespearean insults are way better than modern insults. And a tour of John Green's personal library (I love him, he wrote 'An Abundance of Katherines'). Mark Twain is mentioned! Totally subject relevant.

Now, you mildewed ears, behold and then tell us about your favorite grammatical pet peeves! Like when uppity people haughtily tell you that you need to use proper 'grammer.' XD
Come on, guys, the blog needs some QFT.

So-we are about to start reading Huck Finn. While not my favorite piece of American novel-writing, it is hugely famous and necessary for anyone who considers himself "well-read." It definitely covers some conversation-worthy topics and I hope to see the blog activity pick up as we begin reading. What can I do to inspire posts? I can't offer incentives, but I would like to see this pick up!

I had high hopes that in my absence you had been using the blog. Apparently not. For third block, disregard the crossword. It's for another class. I'll make you one pronto.

A Post For the Dead Blog

Welcome back, Ms. Jones! We missed you and are all very, very glad that you are better.

So, now, it is our obligation to annoy the living daylights out of you as students have a tendency to do. Let's start with http://www.thegreatflu.com/
It will consume your soul. And the souls of any others who feel like clicking.
It's an incredibly frustrating game, but it puts the point of view of an important and influential figure in perspective. Oh, darn the games that somehow worm education into the fun. 8/

Come now, fellow Honors/AP students. Join me in the quest to annoy Ms. Jones and post your games, quotes, amusing websites, stories of your weekend, thoughts on the speech. Anything. Let's make this fun, okay? =D
