To Thine Own Self Be True
Note to self: do try not to use quotes when talking with your girlfriend.
1. You sound like a dick.
2. She’ll only use her English Literature degree against you.
3. This in turn will make you look like the poly-boy you are.
Me being the pedant that I am however, I couldn’t help but pursue Kate’s somewhat wild claims about Polonius, Hamlet’s mate. Although she was looking like she knew her shit at the time, she clearly isn’t as clued up on him as she’d like to think. Polonius was not “Shakespeare’s most arrogant character”. That was probably either Ceasar, Coriolanus or Shylock. Actually.
