I actually had to doublecheck the date to make sure it wasn't April Fool's Day already.

And then I was inspired to post this, as my personal "nuh-uh" to a movie industry that conspires to make English teachers cry.

From the Real Paradise Lost:

Hail horrors, hail
Infernal world, and thou profoundest Hell
Receive thy new Possessor: One who brings
A mind not to be chang'd by Place or Time.
The mind is its own place, and in itself
Can make a Heav'n of Hell, a Hell of Heav'n.
What matter where, if I be still the same,
And what I should be, all but less then hee
Whom Thunder hath made greater? Here at least
We shall be free; th' Almighty hath not built
Here for his envy, will not drive us hence:
Here we may reign secure, and in my choyce
To reign is worth ambition though in Hell:
Better to reign in Hell, then serve in Heav'n.


Yeah. You tell 'em, Satan.

The lesser fallen angels' retort:

"Wait, *you* may get to reign, but we traded serving in Heaven for serving in Hell? This sucketh!"
