- A timeless remake that gen z will never get to experience
I'll do you one better
- Total trade show flirting posture
Excellent . Mad that u check the date to see if its Ai. Would have gone with preppy princess though
The author's intent was to show that Romeo and Juliet is dumb teenager behavior, despite generations of people being taught the opposite. This would at least remind the public of that.
- And yet, it is also likely commentary on the futile squabbles of specific nobility at the time, like most of the Bard's plays. Layered meanings are not new to Shakespeare, nor is neglecting to admit everything that is meant by a work. Nudging and winking to avoid danger is a long held artistic tradition, so there's no way to know that recorded authorial intent was the entire authorial intent. This is why authorial intent can never carry the power some may think.
  
  Death of the author is one of my most cherished tropes.
  Warning: that is a tvtropes link. Don't click unless you are somehow resistant to rabbit holes, or you feel like entering one.
  
  It probably has layers, but one meaning that's probably not part of the intention is the romantic yet tragic love story it's often presented as.
He was into weed and she did cocaine,
what more can I say?
- Reminds me of Måneskin 😁
"Both alike in dignity" lol hot topic was not a very cool place to shop in 2005
- Then where did you get manic panic?
- I'll take your word for it! I'm from the wrong continent, but I've heard tales of these strange and wondrous locations
  
  They were very cool, but people who shopped at hot topic were bullied relentlessly
- Was the other store any better?
  
  Pacsun was a more preppy style, more popular with the cool kids
- Maybe Volcom and Zumiez?
though i do think the author should keep & break iambic pentameter within the fairview mall version, i'll allow it.
