More Mature Stories?

[sirhugs]

You mean, most stories of love are based on a comedy about two horny teens being idiots? Cause, ole Willie fully intended for them to be laughed at. Just imagine him rolling in his grave now at all the people sighing over that story and going, "Such a romantic tragedy."

Hmmm, that might make for an interesting story idea for someone. A crotchety old historian that is constantly getting into debates with a romantic literature lover on intent vs interpretation, and the love that blossoms out of it.

I don't recall Romeo and Juliet to be a comedy.
I do like your twist though.

Wel if there was a reasoned argument to be made, I'd happily debate you. But there isn't because the issue is a matter of your opinion. Yours. There are no facts to toss around, no stats to look up.

So sarcasm is what you've got left. You come here and get critical about other people's input and ideas, but don't actually put in the effort yourself. Which makes your opinion completely worthless.

Again, so sorry you're disappointed in us. I'm sure we'll all miss you when your demoralization leads you to quit the Story Ideas forum altogether. For about 3.2 seconds.

no personal attacks please. Definitely not a story idea.

Something like that.

No, it's not very funny to the modern person, but all of Shakespeare's plays were originally intended to make people laugh.

You're right. My apologies. Edited the post.
