I post on Monday with an occasional random blog thrown in for good measure. I do my best to answer all comments via email and visit around on the days I post.

A is for...

Welcome to my 7th Challenge. Thank you Arlee Bird!  I know a certain Brit with a certain dog, who's a modest internet star, who thinks we are all crazy for doing this. So I'm doing something off the wall and a bit different just to put a smile on his face (and yours too I hope) and her muzzle if they so happen to stop by.



It's all about the A to Z of:




Shakespearean Insults
First Folio





Today's insult: Thou art an ABHORRENT remnant.






AND







Surrealist Compliments!

Today's compliment: Your face does bend the most ANOREXIC mirror into a sensuous playground of muscular spasms.
















May they cause you to smile.
May they lighten your day and help you take things less seriously.
Pass them on if you would like.
Make up your own and share in the comments.
Or visit the Shakespearean Insult Generators HERE and
the Surrealist Compliment Generator HERE.

    ...and I burst out laughing!
    This is priceless!
    Imagine a character in a modern setting who speaks in this fashion. Now wouldn't that would make a great story?

    Bish, it's great to march alongside you as part of The Joyful Brigade!
    Onward march!

    Great. I shall enjoy the Shakespeare insults but might need some tips on how to use them.

    LOL! The surrealist one is almost like another language. Complimentary and yet...

    Shakespeare had a way with words!
    We've done this every year now, Bish. Awesome, huh? Yes, Gary is trembling...

    "Thou art a yeasty earth-vexing giglet!" Now, should I go and look up just exactly what I generated?

    Giving visitors a smile each day is a great idea, Bish. I hope the ghost of Mark Twain can do that for my visitors each day of April. :-)

    You had me going there. I wondered to myself...did Shakespeare really say that? I love your surrealist image. So cool!

    Oh yes, Shakespeare was a brilliant insulter (insultist?). I look forward to more.

    Hi Bish,

    Penny and I, her mere British, Canadian human, duly note you have so kindly mentioned us. Yes, Penny is smiling and I'm smiling. Still, I do think you're all crazy for doing the ridiculous A to Z. It will be my duty to detox the lot of you at the end of April. That way, maybe, just maybe, you will not continue on with the reflection posts about the alphabet that take up the 11 months after April.

    Seriously, cheers, have fun and yep, see you on Farcebook!.

    Gary :)
