i'm beginning to dislike Chaucer. rahh-rahh. or shuld i say. it isn't chaucer's fault. so. i may not dislike chaucer after all. it's more right to say: i'm begining to dislike the merchant. stupid merchant and his stupid tale. sigh. ya i noe its interesting cos its scandalous but still.. i wished that he'll just speak english. goodness. i'm getting a headache trying to figure out this "whilom ther was dwellinge in Lumbardye/a worthy knight, that born was of Pavie" crap. rahh.
oh and wads abt his story abt Rebekke and Judith and Abigail and Ester. if he wants to be sarcastic, then SHOW it, dangit. dun put sum farni farni thing that can be interepreted in 2 ways.
so. tell me. is he against these women or for these women? oh but firstly, pls lemme noe. who's speaking and who's view is this? is it this merchant who has nth better to do and thus he just haf to assume these roles of a cynical commentor and storyteller and speaker/ presentor of Januarie's thoughts such that we haf to differentiate which role he's assuming in every friggin line of his tale speaking or is it this stupid perverted misogynist 60 yr old lao ah pek who calls himself a knight who so deperately wants a wife for spiritual purposes but failing to do so cos he's such a PERVERT who wants a wife 1/3 of his age and later gets fooled round and around and everywhere by his wife that one wonders why he doesn't gets giddy and later still gets a happy-ever-after speaking? gosh. its just so.. i nono how u describe it. argh. its just so perverted. ok ya i noe my vocab's getting limited but hey, tt's e only word that i tink describes this "worthy knight". *pui* worthy my foot.
rahh. kays i'm done with this "knightly" Januarie but i'm not quite done with this merchant. SO. telling this story as part of a debate huh. wad "marriage debate" thing. goodness. can't these ppl just grow up and have a real debate like what we're doing in gp now? pls. these guys are like so much older than us and they are still being some idiots. hah. isn't it easier to just haf a debate which mostly takes an hour or two than to tell 3 or 4 stories just to get your point across? argh. and these people are on a pilgrimage somemore. goodness. wad a time to tell such a scandalous tale. Some holy people they are huh.
okies. i tink i've ran out of steam now. time to get out of the house to meet him. i'll rave and rant about this tale again later. when i'm doing my assignment on it. can you believe we're supposed to do a stupid assignment on this friggin tale? can you? anyhow that's for later. i'm gonna chuck that yucky tale at the back of my mind for now. tataa~ *waves*
