Ha ha ... what cursing...

Shakespeare companies, take note: I hereby declare that I will boycott any performance of Shrew from this day forward. And I wish every other woman on the planet would do the same. It’s fine. Don’t let the blowhards in academia intimidate you. Call this awful and stupid play what it is: a starvelling, elf-skin, dried neat’s-tongue, bull’s-pizzle, stock-fish! (Henry IV, with minor editing.)

Ha ha ... what cursing...
Tho' methinks 'tis totally justified
Before mortal man, myself command
His wil(ly) I will defy/detach
Or at the least, deride.
