Evolution of reading

Ok, I'll see you when I do that :p , then will you believe any idiot can achive that kind of fame. I wouldn't want a lot of retards (no offense to his actualy fans) running around talking about my writings as if they're cult favorites just because of the person who wrote them. I hate to make it sound like I'm basing my judgement off of one person alone, because I'm not, but I know one girl that owns, & has read almost, if not all of his works. I said how I disliked his work & she tried to rip me to pieces, & when I asked her what were so good about them, all she could say were, "They're by Shakespear."

Judging by all the work of his I've been forced to read, which would be Caesar, R&J, & parts from MacBeth I just don't like the crap he writes. And the whole thing about him just making up words was STUPID! If you can't make them ryhme, then don't go out of your way to make up a hundred different pieces of SLANG just so you can LOOK skillfull.
And to me, if someone tried to mimic his work today, by making up 5 billion words that aren't needed, a lot of people would think of them retard.

And I have my english teachers stand around & tell me he's the best writer. Bull Sh!t. Hell, even Julius Caesar has a complete lack of character deleveopment. I noticed this at the time one of my teachers was trying to point out the character development, then had to shut up because she couldn't find any. Not to say that it still isn't a cool story & movie.

Actually I tend to stray from all older writers, & rarely read at all. I'd guess you could say the most inspring writer to me was Poe, even though I've never read more than a few line of his work, he's the inspiration of the few writers I enjoy.

Which then again, my lack of love for Shakespear could also be due to the fact that I hate poetry for the most part, which I will probably go rant about.

Sorry for all spelling & grammar errors, I haven't slept more than 4 hours each day of the past week. Also, please remember this is all my OPINION.
