You think you're clever for 'knowing' that the rhyme is from the plague times.

But it's not.

What makes him correct? Just because he has a wall of text and an article? I read nothing in that article "proving" that it isn't from the plague times. He just simply stated it isn't.

Also, she's not the only one who associates Ring Around the Rosie with the Black Plague. It's either a. common knowledge or b. a common misconception, so either way she's not being "clever," she just thinks about that nursery rhyme every time she thinks about the Plague, and that isn't her fault. So don't be a prick.

You don't have to defend me

Nor did you have to be mean about it

I mean I kinda wondered how it remained unchanged so I kinda suspected that it might of been false

But the last line of the rhyme is not Ashes,ashes we all fall down

it is Ashes to Ashes, we all fall down

So it might be fake

Plus the site kinda contradicted itself if you read it through

Mosquitoes. Ugh. As soon as it stops raining here, they'll come out. But I'll be ready for them this time. :unsure:

Oh well, I've already got spider bites.

This is why I stay indoors all the time. I also have a fear of bees and wasps.

Damn. I hate bug season too. I don't even know HOW the moths are getting in my basement, but when I have every light off, they all fly around my computer screen and go crazy. I have a shirt here to kill them as they do it. It just gets annoying having to kill so many. D:
