2. Exeunt Adverbs pursued by Editors.
3. The passive voice is as tedious as a twice-told tale, vexing the dull ear of a drowsy man

Blogger's note: I don't really believe that anyone but William Shakespeare really wrote his plays. I'm just trying to be whimsical here. Please do not use the comment section to accuse me of being a maniac (though of course I do realise that accusing others of being maniacal is the main purpose of leaving comments on websites)
