The Modern Shakespeare

There is a meaning for my blog post title, and that is my younger brother. I can compare him to William Shakespeare, not because he writes world known plays and a key part of British history, the fact that he makes up so many words it's unbelievable. Recently, just for an example, me and my family were having an all you can eat Chinese buffet on a weekend I came home from uni. I cant remember what food it was, but it was on our table and he says to us "eurrgghh that's grotten!". The meaning is obvious, and it is a mixture of gross and rotten. But it isnt the only word he has randomly just included in his vocabulary, I cant actually remember any of them at the moment, but I'm sure I will be reminded again in the not too distant future.

Now, some of you will probably see the reason why I relate my brother Andy to Shakespeare, but others may not so I will expain it. It was known, or so I believe that Shakespeare made up hundreds of words in his plays that were never heard of before, but we all use today. Again, I'm not sure of the words he made up and I could google it but it's nearly 2AM so yeah, sod that. Just believe every word I say, you can think of me as the Messiah. Yep, that's it, I'm the Messiah and my brother is Shakespeare. I think my parents should be proud.

Well...That escalated quickly! So here we go back to the words of 695. I was on the bus today on the way back to Harlow. Yes I know, not the greatest start of a story but hold on, trust me, it doesnt get much better anyway. So here I was, on the bus sitting there eating some chilli heatwave dorito's and an old lady came on the bus. I could have sworn to god, she was the most stereotypical little old woman it was unreal, well what I thought was stereotypical and it got me thinking, what will my generation look like when they are older? Will you get 70 year old men wearing high tops and chinos or will they end up fitting the mould and become a stereotypical old person? It just made me laugh thinking about the "Jeremy Kyle" types getting old and seeing what they dress like, corr I really would love to see that, I would sit and chuckle to myself everyday just to see that.

Anyway, thanks for reading this as it is late, but thanks if you just read this whenever you get the chance. You nosy, nosy buggers!!! Hope you smiled or laughed as well at the thought of old Jeremy Kyle types as much as I did as well.
