@scriba Oh, I was actually just referencing Act 3 of Julius Caesar (Brutus -> Scribus). Because that scene involved Cassius attempting to convince Brutus to not let Antony speak at the funeral due to the impact of his words, and in the same sense if we could actually post to popular the impact would be too great.
As a side note, that comic is incredibly cute and I quite like its character designs. -
@northernnarwhal I to went to highschool.

@polarbear Did you read Julius Caesar while in high school? It was surprisingly never a curriculum book for while in high school but I read it anyway.

@northernnarwhal *for me

@northernnarwhal Julius Caesar and Romeo and Juliet are all required reading in the US, and many read Macbeth as part of school as well.
-
@polarbear Ah, I'm not from the US so the requisite reading is a little different yet sort of similar here. I went through Romeo and Juliet, Macbeth, The Tempest, and Hamlet for high school, but I've read many other Shakespearean works in my own time (my favourite overall might be King Lear, though Othello is also an incredible read).

@polarbear I also certainly hope you don't think I'm coming off as pompous, as I've been called that before and would hate to give off that impression. I just enjoy a fun reference to an artistic work of any medium as much as the next person here!
