Today’s Totally Random Lines

 

Mine honour is my life; both grow in one;

Take honour from me, and my life is done:

Then, dear my liege, mine honour let me try;

In that I live, and for that will I die.

 

Duke of Norfolk

King Richard the Second       Act I, Scene i, Line 185

 

Apparently honour is somewhat important to the Duke of Norfolk. He uses that word three times in four lines. It was very easy for me to see that he uses it three times because the word honour sticks out with its red underlining. No, it’s not misspelt, it’s just that Word doesn’t recognize the British version of the word honour. Honour, honour, honour, honour. There, no matter how many times you underline it in red, it’s not wrong! This may just be a cellar office, but it’s my office, and I say what goes here, not some silly, red-lining, AI wannabe, program! It’s HONOUR!

  

 
What's all that yelling? Is everything okay down there?
