On
a thread over on
snarkoleptics, the question is raised: Who would win in a fight between Oscar Wilde and F Scott Fitzgerald? The consensus seems to fall on Fitzgerald, but that's not important.
redneckgaijin runs with it:
Next! on LITERARY DEATHMATCH! Fitzgerald versus Wilde in... the CAGE!
PLUS! Emily Dickinson versus Jane Austen- JELLO MATCH!
And in cross-gender tag team fighting- Charles Dickens and Lewis Carroll battle the BRONTE SISTERS!
And now we go RINGSIDE to our master of ceremonies, William Shakespeare!
"Good even, friends, and authors dead and gone;
Good gentles rise, and let us GET IT ON!"
