You won't believe what those b*****ds over at Cadbury's have gone and done! They've only gone and changed the name of my beloved 'Starbar' to, wait for it: 'Moro Peanut'. Yeah I know f*****g disgraceful'. How dare they?! C**ts. Complete and utter C**ts with a capital C.

Calm down. If it's any consolation, remember what Shakespeare said, that a rose by any other name should smell so sweet.

If you really want to, write in and complain.

I've never read any of Shakespeare's Novels. I think they made a movie out of a couple of them. I read Great Expectations by F Scott Fitzgerald and Crime and Punishment by Thaikovsky. No doubt if they were here today Cadbury would try to screw them over too!

He never wrote novels, he wrote plays. It was from Romeo and Juliet.

And Cadbury only sells candy during Easter in the U.S.

'Tis very like: he hath the falling sickness' --Probably from eating too much bloody Cadbury's!

'Et tu, Brute?' --you did not!, sure there's wrappers flung everywhere, under sofa cushions and everything. You had more like 10! Look there's another wrapper!

:) :D :)
