Last I heard she was energetically doing translation work for a large Asian country:eek6:.

I hope her work does not involve security of defence(or anything relevant), it could make for a catastrophic outcome. I can only imagine how some of these translations turned out.

I will give you more punishment if you do not know etiquette in a literature forum

I thought the above was strangely titillating.

Here's another that I have just found on the 'Gay Hamlet' thread.
He's certainly living up to his alter ego G L Wilson. Would anyone like to take a stab at the meaning?

I think someone mispelled once as Hamlot. It all started there. Then with The Merchant of Venice it became worse because of the bet. And with the advent of Turberville Needham and his Aristotelian proof of spontaneity in the birth of flies, nobody was capable of any doubt.

I'll be happy to ellucidate Emil.
Hamlot is a another way of saying a "Lot of Ham". The Merchant of Venice was betting Hamlet that his mother's hasty marriage was merely a ploy to collect as much "funeral baked meats" i.e. ham, to the reception, so John Tuberville Needham could carry out his experiemnts with fly larva in the rotting aforementioned meats.

and the smileys... asking to get rid of the smileys on the messages because they are too bright

hahahhahaha

yeah, that was a good thread.

I'm going to add one more from the author that has been mentioned above:

You didn't read it correctly. The green color mocks me because it represents a bad phone.

and from a different author, but just as confusing/odd:

But Wolf, stop disappointing me. I rather have you as one of the great messiahs than 99% of the ones mental myopia recognizes. Keep shaking the apple tree. When this is over you should go to update the wing of Antonin Artaud.

I made a thread about how Charles Dickens traveled to my hometown, which he didn't like. Mortal decided to write an angry letter to Mr. Dickens for me, which is hilarious:

And when you say that my wife is ugly and ill mannered you might just as well have been talking about any woman as well as she! Master of descriptive prose, my ***! Your whole article is pure fabrication and poppycock from start to finish. As soon as my son gets home from the factory, I will dispatch him to the general store to return every one of your books we have pilfered forthwith, and I assure you my daughter shall not soon steal another.

P.S. On the off chance that you were mistaken about the locale and were really writing about Wisconsin, I beg your apologies. You are quite right, sir. That land is a hotbed of sodomy and witchcraft, may the Earth swallow it up.

Sincerely, Mutatis-Mutandi

Also, Bastable is older than me and I dare say I have a bit of a crush on him.

You have a crush on MarkBastable, Emil?!?! It takes courage to come to terms with who you really are, Emil. Good for you!
