    Hamlet was the "Scottish Play". Stick to stacking shelves and forget the ordinary level English.

    Obviously they didn't cover puns either, just 4chan memes we've all seen a hundred times.

    Actually, it was for MacB... (Bad things happen when people say it.)
    If it were Hamlet, it may be rotten pork.

    PS: Fail.

    Hamlet is a tragedy by William Shakespeare, believed to have been written between 1599 and 1601. The play, set in Denmark, recounts how Prince Hamlet exacts revenge on his uncle Claudius, who has murdered Hamlet's father, the King, and then taken the throne and married Hamlet's mother. The play vividly charts the course of real and feigned madness—from overwhelming grief to seething rage—and explores themes of treachery, revenge, incest, and moral corruption.

    You were hardly gracious when you told him to stick to packing shelves and insulted his intelligence now were you. He was just giving as good as he got.

    Roundy, forgive me, I tried not to do it
    Turned over a new leaf, then tore right through it
    Whatever you taught me, I didn't believe it
    Roundy, you fought me, 'cause I didn't care
    And I still don't understand


    Back on topic,


    So what if they sell British pork. Shop in an Irish shop if your so outraged.

    All the more so since the play isn't actually called "Hamlet", it's full-name, as given in the first folio was "The Tragedie of Hamlet, Prince of Denmark", while the earlier Second Quatro gave it as "The Tragicall Hiſtorie of Hamlet, Prince of Denmark". Neither of which make the Danish connection particularly obscure.

    Kronborg Castle still stands at Helsingør (Anglicised to Elsinore in Shakespeare's rendering). In choosing the locate the long-standing legend of the avenging prince in recently-built but well-known castle Shakespeare managed to make it a considerably more popular tourist attraction today than it would probably have been otherwise.
