Imagine being a Combine soldier, getting your human emotions sucked right out of you by an interdimensional empire. Then you get assaulted by a headcrab which hijacks your body and puts you into a state of indescribable pain while you're still somewhat conscious

And the last thing you hear is some woman calling you a Zombine as a joke

I think I too would pull out a grenade and try to off myself at that point

Gordon didn't even laugh smh I fed up with this warld

On October 1st 1568 The Bannatyne Manuscript was published by George Bannatyne, an Edinburgh merchant.

Bannatyne collected the most extensive collection of early Scottish poetry in existence, the manuscript contains texts of the poems of the great makars, many anonymous Scots pieces and works by medieval English poets and those from further afield.

In 1568 the plague struck Edinburgh. Hidden away in a country retreat, trying to escape the pestilence, city merchant George Bannatyne whiled away the time compiling an anthology of poetry. Little did he know that his manuscript would play a unique part in preserving his country's poetic heritage.

The Bannatyne manuscript contains some of the best work of Scotland's most important mediaeval poets. It is our only source for some poems: without it, we would have lost Alexander Scott's welcome to Mary Queen of Scots ('Welcum illustrat Ladye and oure quene'), William Dunbar's poem to Queen Margaret Tudor ('O lusty flour of yowth benyng and bricht'), Robert Henryson's pastoral love-poem 'Robene and Makyne', and many others. In other cases, the Bannatyne Manuscript preserves the most reliable text for modern scholars. The works it contains range widely: religious verse, love poems, moral fables and scandalous flytings, all find a place in it. The flytings are my favourite, the most interesting section to me. Flyting was a way of duelling with words, an exchange of insults, often conducted in verse, between two parties. Many people make comparisons with modern day Rap Battles.

Over the centuries many scholars and literary greats have poured over the manuscript, including our be-turbaned Edinburgh poet, Allan Ramsay and Walter Scott. Many of the religious gatherings predate the Reformation, they take up the first of the five sections it is made up of.

The "Secound Pairt" is made up of poems with moral or philosophical themes, three's writings are dedicated to comic entertainment with a heavy bias toward satire. Love themes make up the next section although it splits them into sub-sections "Ballatis Of Luve Devydit in Four Pairtis" And of course no compilation would be complete without politics, which makes up part five, along with fables, including those of Aesop.

Back to my faves, Flytings, the most well known example is "The Flyting of Dumbar and Kennedie"

There is no date for the poem but one of the "Flyters was the poet William Dunbar who lived from 1456-1520, he was the court poet to King James IV.

This is part of the opening from Dunbar;

The erd sould trymbill, the firmament sould schaik,

And all the air in vennaum suddane stink,

And all the divillis of hell for redour quaik,

To heir quhat I suld wryt with pen and ynk:

For and I flyt, sum sege for schame sould sink,

The se sould birn, the mone sould thoill ecclippis,

Rochis sould ryfe, the warld sould hald no grippis,

Sa loud of cair the commoun bell sould clynk.

Translated to;

The earth shall tremble, the firmament shall shake,

And all the air with venom quickly stink,

And all the devils of hell in fear shall quake

To hear what I shall write with pen and ink;

For when I flyte, some man for shame will sink;

The seas will burn; the moon will be eclipsed;

Rocks will split; the world will lose its grip;

The bells will clang in bitter loud lament.

Poem of the Day 21 January 2025

For a' That and a' That

Burns, Robert (1759 - 1796)

Is there, for honest poverty,

That hings his head, an' a' that?

The coward slave, we pass him by,

We dare be poor for a' that!

For a' that, an' a' that,

Our toils obscure, an' a' that;

The rank is but the guinea's stamp;

The man's the gowd for a' that,

What tho' on hamely fare we dine,

Wear hoddin-gray, an' a' that;

Gie fools their silks, and knaves their wine,

A man's a man for a' that.

For a' that, an' a' that,

Their tinsel show an' a' that;

The honest man, tho' e'er sae poor,

Is king o' men for a' that.

Ye see yon birkie, ca'd a lord

Wha struts, an' stares, an' a' that;

Tho' hundreds worship at his word,

He's but a coof for a' that:

For a' that, an' a' that,

His riband, star, an' a' that,

The man o' independent mind,

He looks and laughs at a' that.

A prince can mak a belted knight,

A marquis, duke, an' a' that;

But an honest man's aboon his might,

Guid faith he mauna fa' that!

For a' that, an' a' that,

Their dignities, an' a' that,

The pith o' sense, an' pride o' worth,

Are higher rank than a' that.

Then let us pray that come it may,

As come it will for a' that,

That sense and worth, o'er a' the earth,

May bear the gree, an' a' that.

For a' that, an' a' that,

It's coming yet, for a' that,

That man to man, the warld o'er,

Shall brothers be for a' that.

MEOOOOWS answerishly. ok we're back for round two ^_^ i would still be down to do more of coursies! The Post

7 Celebrity crush?

hmmmmm ill go with dee from always sunny. i love u dirtbag women.

27 three things you love about yourself

one, although im sure it gets annoying for the others involved i like that im very mirrory when im with people. it lets me keep a little part of them in myself. two, i like my lust for knowledge and always wanting to know more about this warld. if i don't know about something i will be on wikiwedia scratching the surface in like 5 seconds. a Jill of all trades u could say. and three, i like my nose piercing :3 i love u septum ring u were the best $20 decision ive ever made.

29 How different is your actual adult self from how you pictured it when you were little

i mean if im being honest i didn't really think about myself in the future like that, even when i was a kid. i didn't know what i wanted then and i still don't know now. so i guess we're living the dream (but a girl this time)
