Shakespeare authorship discussion is the funniest shit ever
>An example is the claim that he was an Arab whose real name was "Sheikh Zubayr". This was first proposed in the 19th century as a joke by Ahmad Faris al-Shidyaq, but developed seriously by Iraqi writer Safa Khulusi in the 1960s. It was later endorsed by Muammar Gaddafi.
>As early as 1897, George Newcomen had suggested Shakespeare was an Irishman, a certain Patrick O'Toole of Ennis.
>Freud came to suspect that Shakespeare was of French descent, and his name a corruption of "Jacques Pierre"
