Shakespeare's been dead for nearly 400 years, it's hardly fair to bring him into the mix. But I think that's the point, 400 years ago it was all the rage and renaissance fairs are exactly what they're intended to be - Renaissance, so we can give them a pass aswell.

But writing in this day and age as if the person is pretending to be Shakespeare when clearly they're not is a bit bullshitty.
