Forever forward.

Bigger and better, right? Or smaller and slicker, faster, stronger... That is what we as humanity generally strive for, right?

Hmm. Lets compare modern day language to, say, shakespearian language. Would you ever hear Shakespeare saying 'Yeah well your face is gross', or in terms of romance: 'Yeah, she's pretty hot, I sorta like her, like, a bit' etc.

If society is moving forward, then how come the state of language is so rapidly decreasing?
It is puzzling. =s

Actually i envy characters in Shakespeare plays. I would very much enjoy being incredibly quick of wit, with lots of fancy words at my disposal. When i'm writing for example, i have plenty of time to think of how i will set out what i have to say, i don't have to think quick and i have the opportunity to utilise words i wouldn't use in normal conversation. Given the choice, i would speak like Mercutio, from Romeo and Juliet. Sure, Mercutio speaks quite a lot of nonsense, but he speaks with passion, and he is eloquent, witty and imaginative. I want to be like that one day.

Sorry this blog post is rather self-oriented. =s

peace and quick witted-ness. =)
