Best T-shirt I've seen all week:

"Shakespeare hates your emo poems."

Worn by a young man, kind of emo-looking, coming out of Dwinelle Hall, a strange sprawling building that houses all the language departments and linguistics, among others.

  1. What are emo poems?
    Is that "Emo" as in the Sesame Street character? Or am I meddling things up here...? Hm, been a looooooong time since my last Sesame Street... Did Emo write/cite poems? :-S

  2. Maggie,
    Nothing to do with Sesame Street. Look up "emo (slang)" on Wikipedia and then scroll down to "fashion and stereotype" and "criticism" and you'll get an idea.
