I found a copy of this play. It seems to be called Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead. And Guildenstern sounds a bit like me, honestly. ... "I'm sorry it wasn't a unicorn. It would have been nice to have unicorns." I feel that way sometimes about things. Things that don't exist outside of stories, but...

Have you ever come across a song - or a band - and just known a friend of yours would like it, even though you know there's absolutely no possibility they've ever heard of it before?

Ah, really? How do you like it? My class performed that play for the school festival last year.

It's... interesting. And quite funny in some parts. Would probably make more sense if I read Hamlet, honestly, but that shouldn't be too hard to find.

It's not completely necessary to have read Hamlet, although I agree it does help. The main point is the philosophy of the thing, rather than the plot, really. It's rather fascinating.

I guess you have a point.
