People always make Juliet out to be dumb in Romeo and Juliet, but I think she at least had some sense where Romeo didn't have much of
any.
Romeo: I was thinking about this chick earlier who I said I
was in love with, but now I love that girl over there that is very likely to
either belong to my family's enemy or be close with my family's enemy as it is
their party I am crashing. Juliet: I do not like being so young and forced into a relationship with an
older man, but oh there's a cute guy more my age over there. And since he's
here he must have been invited and is therefore a reasonable love match for
myself.
___________________________
Romeo: We should kiss right now at this party. Juliet: No that is a super dumb idea. Romeo: *kisses her anyway* Juliet: That was dumb of you.
___________________________
Romeo: We should get married right now. Juliet: We don't know each other. Shouldn't we wait until at
least a little time has passed? Romeo: Like tomorrow? Juliet: Sure, fine.
__________________________
Juliet: We're married
now, so we have to try and make things better between our families. Romeo: Right. Romeo: It seems I have killed your cousin and am now exiled.
_________________________
Juliet: Ok, so, since Romeo fucked up I'm gonna fix this
shit by taking a harmless sleeping liquid. He'll come and get me and we can go
away together. Romeo: *immediately kills himself* Juliet: For fucks sake.
And honestly, that's exactly what we were all thinking and you know it.
I needed a little laugh on this here Monday. You know it's the truth.
