I officially DO NOT like shakespeare! UGH

Shakespeare
When we think of great men who went down in history who do we think of? One name that comes to mind is William Shakespeare, he was a great poet and play write, as many realize he was also a very clever man.
Shakespeare did not as many people believe write his plays in old English, he wrote them in almost his own language, often hard to understand and very in depth many of the hidden insults arnt what you would expect them to be for example;
“Thou wanton shrill-gorged snipe!”
Meaning; You are rude and lascivious, you have a irritating voice, and you are annoying.
Or
“Your villainy goes against my weak stomach, and therefore I must cast it up”
Meaning; You make me sick.
Or probably my all time favorite
“More validity, more honorable state, more courtship lives in the carrion flies.”
Meaning; You have less worth, dignity and manners then a maggot.
Along with the insults most of what Shakespeare wrote can be confusing and hard to follow something as simple as
“The gray-eyed morn smiles on the frowning night”
(Said by Friar Lawrence in Romeo and Juliet.) can be translated into something that doesn’t sound much the same like; The smiling morning is replacing the frowning night.
As I said before Shakespeare was a very clever man and for all we know he could have all these hidden meanings in all his plays could really add up to be a great plot for taking over the world that no one has figured out. ( That’s my guess at least.)
