British friends: it's not right that the largest collection of original Shakespearian writings and other associated works is located in Washington DC, amirite?

<---An American who agrees. That's almost like you blokes housing our Liberty Bell, amirite?

Right! haha, but in fact, interestingly, the Liberty Bell was made in the UK

That is very interesting, indeed. :)

Yeah...probably why it got cracked on its first ring! hahaha

I don't disagree, but what about all the swag in the British Museum (and others)?

by Anonymous 12 years ago

Exactly, it's not right either! What would make you think that I wouldn't think that?

No offense was intended. I wanted to know if you felt the same way about your mother country (forgive me if I'm wrong) possessing another culture's artifacts. To answer your question, I just read too much between the lines... British artifacts in another country... Posted by a Brit... Addressed to 'British friends'.

Indeed you did. I am also a strong proponent of returning many artifacts to their rightful homes, especially Chinese ones.

Duh! read the comments above judgy!

Wow, you sound like a 5 year old.

It's necessary when dealing with people with the patience of a 5-year-old. If that user had bothered to read the other comments then they wouldn't have sat quite so high on their horse :-P

by Anonymous 12 years ago

Right, which is totally the reason you sound like a 5 year old in the majority of your comments.

by Anonymous 12 years ago

Now now...you just sound silly when you say that. And if I moderate my tone to sound like a five year old it's because I'm constantly dealing with them on here. :-P

Not only do you act like a five year old, but apparently you are also condescending. Get over yourself, sir.

by Anonymous 12 years ago

I don't believe I'm the one "bigging myself up" - i just say what i think. Nobody asked you to like it. And you wanna talk about childish? Your comments read like a first-year college student know-it-all. Puh-lease! At least I KNOW my limits. You clearly don't

"Judgy?" "Now now...you just sound silly when you say that?" "Puh-lease?" Yeah, you sound so grown up right now sir. My comments have nothing to do with me being in college, they have to do with you being a jerk who sounds like a whiny little 5 year old when you don't get your way.

No one is forcing you to read them.

by Anonymous 12 years ago

That is your great argument? Good job. I applaud you.

by Anonymous 12 years ago

What's there to argue about? You're calling me childish for whatever sad reason you have, and I'm not going to waste my time dealing with some impetuous naive youth. May as well just use a line like that. At least it's true, unlike most of things you've said so far.

should i not have been offended that someone is judging me as a hypocrite when i clearly wrote the thing that contradicts their judgment? What would you say in response? Probably some angry teenage know-it-all tirade

by Anonymous 12 years ago

I said nothing about you being offended, I said you sounded like a 5 year old which you are continuing to prove. Stop acting like you are such a bad ass.
