I remember the name Francis Bacon.
What did he do?
You know the name.
He wrote Hamlet.
Can you give us a fact check on this?
What did he do?
Francis Bacon was a figurative painter and he was, hold on, major works, scroll down.
Of course he died of a heart attack.
He became one of the most expensive living artists.
I thought he was a scientist or some shit.
He was a painter.
I think that, legit, this is going to sound crazy, I think this is in reference not to the painter, but to the person allegedly behind the works of Shakespeare.
Have you ever heard this?
No, I've heard some people try to make Shakespeare a lady.
What if it just was Billy Shakes?
I think the idea is that it never actually was Billy Shakes because people have said that Shakespeare is actually a euphemism for masturbation.
Shaking your spear.
