Tardy-Gaited Pox-Marked Skainsmate
-
At some point during a dialogue with a lifelong friend–one filled with Shakespearean insults–you have to wonder how it all started.

Maybe I should back up a little bit.
@jeremysarber @sunnystar124 Canker-blossom?? Haha! Has that vituperation ever been used outside of a Shakespearean work? Kiss my codpiece!

I’m not sure that’s quite far enough.
That’s more like it. I don’t know if it was Grumpy Old Men that started the feud or not, but it certainly helped us along. The movie gave us inspiration, if you will. Either way, we’ve been committed to friendly and sarcastic banter ever since.
