Rebuilding again and seeing what happens.

In this monologue, Hamelt [rugian] is reflecting on how death comes to us all and wipes away the qualities possessed or treasured in life.

He [rugian] turns on Horatio [camaban]...daring him to find the joy and fun that compensates for the bitter end that awaits him in death (ie, becoming forgotten, grotesque and irrelevent, like Yorick [the thread]).

He tells Horatio [camaban] that, no matter how hard she (Ophelia) [girl with k name maybe who is like 1 of 2 girls on board every one sexually harasses] tries to hide or avoid it (makeup, etc), she too will die.

Remember that throughout the play, everyone is basically jollying up Hamlet [rugian]; telling him he's too gloomy and morose. Tellig him basically to "lighten up". In this scene, Hamlet [rugian] is establishing that everyone else is delusional--not him...because to avoid, ignore or make light of the reality of death is what is truly delusional.

For the love of god, an exception to what? Do you not know what the word "exception" means?

"A person or thing that is excluded from a general statement or does not follow a rule"

Are you saying that your response to Passerby was an exception to your never otherwise posting in in this thread? If so, the doesn't make sense because you responded to my post too.

I asked why you didn't complain about his (or others') OT posts, just mine. Then you said an exception was in order. An exception to your lack of complaining to the mods? If so, why do you otherwise complain to the mods? Because you think a post broke the thread rules.
Hot Rod

Wed Aug 03 21:49:00

I'll try one more time. Go slow and read carefully.


My ***PERSONAL "RULE"*** was to never post to this thread because I had no use for it. Hence my post was an exception for me to my personal rule.

Passerby wisely posted to this thread because he is experienced and knew his post would not last long in the mod thread. I wanted to welcome him back hoping that he would stick around for awhile. Evidently he chose not to.


The reason I objected to your post is because I thought this was a valid thread and your post was another silly Haiku which I, personally, consider spam in a valid thread.


That is the clearest I know how to be. If you are still having trouble see if you can find a two year old to explain it to you.
