OK,
There’s this guy right? he grows various kinds of berries on his farm. One day he notices a particular strawberry growing to an unusually large size. Friends and relatives start to come over and take notice. The berry grows larger and larger. Weeks go by, the berry’s at 6’ in diameter, then 7’, it’s an absolute miracle. People come from far and wide to see it, the berry farmer begins charging 2$ for a 5 minute view. It becomes a pop culture phenomenon.
One late night the farmer hears some sort of ruckous out in the farm. He puts on his pants and slippers to check it out.
He sees 4 men in masks looking mean heading out in the farm toward the berry. Frantically he runs over and timidly asks what they want, “What do you want?” he asks. They all remain silent. “Do you wish to see my berry? Please feel free, free of charge. Tell me, what do you think? quite a berry heh?”, he says trying to befriend them. Finally one responds, "We did not come to praise your berry; we’ve come to seize your berry.
Thank you, thank you very much.
::darts out the door to avoid being beaten::
AET,
Kill it then.
Sue me.
What ever…
BTW, don’t bother to open it and read it then.
I’m not forcing you or someone else.
Bye.
You are all crazy!!!
That ball was clearly OUT!!
Stubborn, I’ll show you stubborn!!!
It’s gotta be me.
Back off, I have sharp teeth!
Even if she is half as stubborn as I am.
:wally
Osip
Oh no you don’t! You are no match for my sharp teeth, unless you have sharp nipples or a big mouth!
Whatever.
Y’all are all going down!
pldennison – bah! Bloody foreigners! 
Welfy – “Back off, I have sharp teeth!”
Yeah? And I’ve got sharp nipples so na na na! Not to mention my big mouth…
Anniz – BTW: it’s still spelled stubborn.
You’re welcome.
It would be me.
I’ve been arguing with this guy online for three hours about Ren Faire. I don’t know if I’ll win this fight but I’ll go down swinging if anything!
Big mouth? sharp teeth? AND sharp Nipples?
Damn Byz I think I might just be in serious lust for you!
Osip – well, you’ll have to take a number. Um… 1456 is the next number up. You don’t mind waiting a bit, do you? I promise to make it worth the wait!
(Voice in back ground calling for number 69)
Oh, but wait… I don’t have sharp teeth. Damn!
Oh, well! I do have nice teeth, though… I guess if I bit you hard enough they would SEEM sharp… 
Me! I’m stubborn as an old mule! An old mule with sharp teeth!
Yes. To me.
“Give it up”, of course, being a double entendre.

“Most stubborn whom I really with”???
You aren’t soulsling, but who the f*ck is “Bullingbrook”?
“by my soul I swear
There is no power in the tongue of man
To alter me”
–Merchant of Venice, Act 4, Scene i
g’hag’'n!!
I’ll leave you all to ponder that one…
Bolingbroke, rather, is actually Henry Bolingbroke, Duke of Hereford who later becomes King Henry IV. Not a very popular play of his, but the quote seemed to fit.
“How long a time lies in one litle word!
four lagging winters and four wanton springs
end in a word such is the breath of kings.”

Actually, I knew who you were talking about, I just wanted to give you grief about the spelling. But I’ll show mercy and not taunt you about messing up the code.
Oops.
Actually, I recommend the Derek Jacobi BBC version of Richard II (I have it on videotape). Very well done.
