The long-running conflict of opinion ower whether its 'tomati sauce' or 'tomato ketchup' ends in chaos as Yan dooks his wee brithir Nevets in a pan i Dolmio.

Fut, wid yer Auntie no need a nob an aw?

Fut, does that not negate your Shakespearian argument juxtapositioning two members of your family and the relative ease of interchanging their roles, given the correct set of circumstances, no matter how improbable those circustances be?
Or is it just that most metaphors don't bear close examination?

I don't think we should take Shakespeare too literally.

For example in Julius Caesar (II, ii, 30-31) he asserts that,

"When beggars die there are no comets seen;
The heavens themselves blaze forth the death of princes."

However i remember when Aggy Doo goat run ower wi a Bucket Moatir it Dower House, Halley's Comet wis visible moving through the constellation Aquarius.

Fair point Carrier. In Richard III he wrote:
"Talkers are no good-doers: be assur'd
We go to use our hands, and not
our tongues"
an we aw ken thats no richt

Tricky said...

Ooo, listen to her
