Bill Nye recites this as he explains meteors with a lighted match in his hand. The match quickly burns – burns Bill slightly and goes out – much like a meteor quickly burns up in the atmosphere.
One of my favorite Shakespearian quotes. I generally spout it when one of them d@$^&d kids roars by in a 4-banger rice burner with open pipes on it. “…With a sound and a fury, signifying nothing…”

Oh, I thought Albert was talking about “Doonesbury” or “Funky Winkerbean”.

I think he should stick with the Macbeth theme. Everyone could get a bloody dagger as a party favor.

If you’re going for, “a tale told by an idiot, signifying nothing,” Spongebob is the clear choice.

I don’t know. A MacBeth themed birthday party would be rather unique.

This brings back memories. I had to learn this (and others) in my English Lit class in high school.

I clearly hear the young man say “Spongebob” with his elequent delivery of Macbeth, Act V, Scene 5,
“His hour upon the stage, and then is heard no more. It is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.”
If that ain’t Spongebob, nothing is….

Maybe she should consider the boy’s aptitude before limiting his choices. But yes, Spongebob!

I’ll buy the “tale told by an idiot part.”

Spongebob gets around. He’s also airing at the Duncans’ house just now.

Both of those seem old fashioned at this point. I would have thought that the theme would be more like Adventure Time or Steven Universe now-a-days.

He should have stuck with “Midsummer Night’s Dream” for the Birthday theme.
He would be a Natural as The Puck.
