Someone: I mean people act like Shakespeare is so deep but in reality his work is filled with low key dick jokes.

Geoffrey Chaucer in the Canterbury Tales: shit piss fuck cunt cocksucker motherfucker tits fart turd and twat. Shit piss fuck cunt cocksucker motherfucker tits fart turd and twat. Shit piss fuck cunt cocksucker motherfucker tits fart turd and twat. Shit piss fuck cunt cocksucker motherfucker tits fart turd and twat. I fucked your moooommmmmm.

#shakespeare #chaucer #blink-182 #chat #english literature #medieval vernacular poetry did not leave anything to the imagination #also i find when ppl say things like haha shakespeare no deep shakespeare silly he mean penis this line #it's a little silly bc yes there are dick jokes but theyre really not overstated #the plots are often more overtly ridiculous if you read his proper comedies #u don't need to explain the raunchy humor to get a midsummer night's dream. the fairy queen falls for a donkey #things can also be sophisticated and make silly penis jokes occasionally #it's like yes shakespeare IS deep actually. he had range as a writer and dick jokes were far from his most significant or interesting theme #and on the other hand if u are looking for just disgusting bawdy humor in english poetry... read the miller's tale #even just a synopsis will do #now that is one of the most overtly vulgar things ive ever read. and also hilarious #i still get a gross taste when i think about it
