    That person is fucken illiterate. Seriously I’ve read books from the 1800s with perfect clarity and I e brute forced myself through a solid bit of an Old English copy of Beowulf, don’t particularly remember anything from that assignment but I do know my highschool English teacher gave me an A and apparently we weren’t supposed to get through the poem.

        Yeah no I’m with you, pretty sure I wrote this right after waking up. Like walked into a doorway and just kinda stood there levels of not awake yet. I do agree with myself that if someone can’t read 1960s English then they’re probably a tad bit illiterate or stupid, not accounting for boring prose, over use of slang, or outdated shit driving you insane.
