But I love Sir Thopas! Such a loving parody of all my favorite Middle English romances...

Well, it is the inspiration of my favorite line from the Tales:

Oh, so that's the explanation for Sir Thopas's tale. It's a medievalist in-joke.

(Yes, yes, I know it wasn't a medievalist in-joke at the time.)

EEEEEEEE! Yay for Middle English phone posts! :D

I have one ready to go, too, as soon as I get my mic working...
