T-Rex: And now it's time to learn about...

Narrator: SUCKUMS
Narrator: WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE'S CONTEMPORARY

T-Rex: Suckums was ALSO a playwright in Shakespeare's time, but he wasn't as good. He was actually a bit sucky.
Dromiceiomimus: Some nominative determinism going on with poor Suckums there.
T-Rex: Listen, you don't name your kid "Suckums" unless you are ABSOLUTELY willing to roll the dice on nominative determinism.

Utahraptor: It's like naming your kid "Not Even God Can Kill This Kid!"
T-Rex: Exactly!

T-Rex: Which incidentally was also Suckums' name. His full name was "Suckums Not Even God Can Kill This Kid Smith", but he went by "Suckums". Later on, as Shakespeare's fame eclipsed his own, Suckums respected Bill as a person and appreciated the artistic heights he hit!

T-Rex: He saw Shakespeare as an inspiration, and felt privileged to know him as both a peer... and a friend.
Off panel: Aww. I love Suckums.
T-Rex: Yeah, he's great.
T-Rex: *sigh*
T-Rex: His plays are GARBAGE though
