Edmund: why?

Quote Prompt

whygodohgodwhy:

“Who died and made me king?”

-Macbeth, trying to play dumb 

a short song about that one time when Hamlet indirectly killed two guys but it was totally ok because everything’s ok in Shakespeare plays

(To the tune of the chorus of Freeze Your Brain)

Kill your frieeeeeends!

Just switch the names- they’ll meet their tragic ends

Chill, it’s ok. They’re not vital to this play.

Plus murder’s kind of a treeeeeeeeend…

Kill your friends

another short song about that one time when hamlet tricked his uncle-step dad into watching a play about his own horrible crimes

(To the tune of the chorus of Oklahoma)

Clauuuuuuudius!

how are you doooooing today?

so the king does rise!

Time for your demise!

Thanks to the help of this playyyyyyy!

Laertes: Ha you just got stabbed with a poisoned sword!
Hamlet: ...
Hamlet: *pulls out uno reverse card*

That scene where Claudius tells Laertes that Hamlet is responsible for all his life’s problems has the same vibe as that one time when Macbeth told Murderers 1 and 2 that Banquo Was responsible for all their problems

On a scale of Malcolm to Mark Antony how dramatic are you when someone dies?

Of all the things Claudius did, nothing will ever be more relatable then that time when he straight up walked out of a play he didn’t like. 

I too would like the confidence to just get up and leave when something I don’t like is happening. Oh, are we having a math test? Sorry, I don’t like that *literally just gets up and leaves*

This meme format really works for almost any Shakespeare play
