The language of Mr Burn’s world is very reminiscent of Chaucer's work.
I assure you i don't have Geoffrey Chaucer on the ‘White courtesy phone’.
LOL.

I hope you’ll forgive me for feeling a kinship with Robert Burns. His poetry seems to involve recognizing and elevating some rather prosaic elements of ordinary life; plowing, field mice, weather, and the necessity of taking advantage of culinary opportunities.
I too tend to accept and promote the more ordinary elements, giving them an odd perspective perhaps, but showing others what I see, so that they can see and celebrate it too.

Please excuse: every once in a while, Shakespeare and Chaucer haunt me. I welcome them, but I hesitate to mention it to anyone.
