    They aren't:



    I rest my case.
    All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.

    Excellent, I've perplexed a few Americans by suggesting our best recipes. By the way, I would have this with short-crust pastry, anything else is too greasy. Forget the eel pie which appears later, that's a Cockney speciality, cor blimey!
