Bro-meo and Jeez-liet* (or, A Highly Educated Critique of William Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet)
*As in Jeez, Bros, you’re Dumb
Ok. Bill, we get it. You’re great. Your characterization? Insanely epic. Your made up words? Quite useful! But seriously? Did you HAVE to go and write something which people (who’ve never read it) always reference as the epitome of love? “I’m so sad- hey, she’s hot!” Marraige! Death! The end.

Stranger Things
Stranger and wilder and crazier things would’ve been fine if it didn’t mean gorier things, too. I mean, I’m here for the characters, and the backstory of season four? Wow. But, dear Duffer brothers, I honestly could use less crunching and cracking and smooshing and gooshing. You’ve gone too far.

August
The month of August is one where the summer seems to be dwindling away. At times the days and nights seem cooler with bouts of warmer days and nights. The summer picnics seems to be also fewer. The back-to-school sales begin along with various school orientations at different levels of schooling. Again, August is the end of summer vacation.
