Have you seen Branagh's version? One of the best perfomrances ever...and " Cry Havoc! And let slip the dogs of war." is one of the best Shakespeare lines ever... And I seriously have no idea what this lady's issue is. I thought it was pretty clear that I was making a joke, and a harmless on at that. God I hope she's not among my students... PROGRAMMING NOTICE: The preceding line...about one of McBeth's students, was a joke, and should in no way be construed as meaning that he thinks Maria is, in fact, one of his students, which said poster has more than once made clear she is NOT. This was a joke...and similar disclaimers will accompany any jokes directed at Maria in the future, as they are clearly needed in this case. Thanks for your time.
Me either...geez. Not only that, but I thought it was a pretty innocuous joke at that. Oh well, she'll just have to go to summer school, I guess.

Hey MacB, don't you ever worry that one of your students might actually stumble accross this site, put 2 and 2 together, get 5 and drop the whole thing. Then, another student will come in, etc, find out that their Prof posts here, and then try and embarrass you and what not?
I just don't like people always joking at everything I do.I like some jokes.But for once take me seriously.Your worser than my mom when I but on a banndana(Ooh she looks cute!)Or when a put on a dress(Oohhhh,don't she just looks adorable!)It gets on my nerves.I'm not a little kid anymore.
Okay. Your intial premise might have been better served with a more prominent opening line. Watch typos as they tend to distract the reader and remind him/her that he is reading, while you want him/her to subconsciously follow along with the thought pattern. You need to support your second point, both that you are always the center of MacBeth's stupid jokes, which is largely debatable, and that they are in fact stupid, which should be pretty easy to prove. Your position that you deserve respect is a tricky one, as you have to prove the prima facea case, and prove that Macbeth failed to comply. It is true both in essays and in streetball that bringing your mother into things only confuses the issue. Grade: Incomplete.
It has occured to me. Don't see how I'd be embarrased...or are you talking about the Pornstar thing? That was the only period when I was actually concerned.
AS a female I feel unwanted here at ,my own topic. To be,or not to be?that is the question? (Yeah,I know some literature,too.)
I don't know why, but this is the funniest thing I have read all day, and I read all friggin day. I had no idea what i was missing not reading this thread. Maria, do yourself a favor and assume we're all friends here. A little kidding among friends, and even a lot of kidding, is to be expected and enjoyed.
Women, cant live without them and they can't pee standing up. I can't remember what show or movie that comes from. Anyone?
Okay...this is getting silly. Look, maria, I don't want you to feel excluded, certainly not for your gender. Recap: I made a suggestion to try and soften the blow I felt was to come about posting so early and it's typos, which I acknowledged I am prone to myself...and you flipped out. I cleared it up, and you said cool, I said cool, and then I saw that others had made comment on the typos, and made a " We're both cool with this." kind of little joke...and you flipped out again. Clearly you have something to discuss with your mother, but not really with me. Possibly the fact that we express ourselves differently lead to a misunderstanding, but I think it's pretty clear that others didn't see any malice in my comments at all...and i ddi take you seriously, first with the constructive criticism, and then by answering your question re: female posters, althou I included a little shot at Yo Yao, effectively refuting your belief that I have quickly developed some sort of hate-on for you. After that, I admitedly got pretty silly myself, but I was pretty incredulous about your reactions... I have no idea where to go from here, as it has become apparent that I ahve NO idea how you will take anything I say...maybe you should just ignore me, and save us both the grief. PEACE JAG
MacBeth, you're one classless dude. Just leave it alone and stop being an @sshole and same with some of you.
Explain, please. Else one might be lead to believe that the first person to throw insults around, and swearing, might be confused with the unemployed teacher. Seriously, what do you feel I have done to warrant your claim, not to mention your ire? Oh, and save the ESPN lines for other places.
