To the King’s Theatre, where we saw “Midsummer’s Night’s Dream,” which I had never seen before, nor shall ever again, for it is the most insipid ridiculous play that ever I saw in my life. I saw, I confess, some good dancing and some handsome women, which was all my pleasure.

"Midsummer’s Night’s Dream [...] is the most insipid ridiculous play that ever I saw in my life."

Disagreeing with you on the artistic value of the play, Sam, but I will make "insipid" part of my active vocab, and for that I thank you. As I thank you for all your posts. You are a good Mastodonian, Sam.
