Shakespeare? More like Fakespeare!!

Recently, in the information age, or what I like to consider the age of stupidity and conspiracies, comes yet another conspiracy, the idea that Shakespeare did not write his plays. This theory originated in the year 1848, when a young man by the name of Samuel Mosheim Schmucker wrote in his book, as a joke, that Shakespeare did not exist. But he will soon figure out, words have a large impact, especially in the form of a high velocity dictionary flying towards your head. 

For some reason, the people of today have a hard time distinguishing a joke and something serious and sure enough, in 1857, American writer Delia Salter Bacon published The Philosophy of the Plays of Shakespeare Unfolded, in which she argued that Lord Francis Bacon, among others, wrote Shakespeare's plays. Soon afterward, many people also jumped aboard the bandwagon, even people such as Mark Twain (“So far as anybody actually knows and can prove, Shakespeare of Stratford-on-Avon never wrote a play in his life.”) and Charlie Chaplin (“I can hardly think it was the Stratford boy, whoever wrote them had an aristocratic attitude.”).

The main basis for most conspirator's arguments is that there is absolutely no evidence directly relating to his upbringing. As far as we know, he did not receive any formal education or training in writing, yet he uses such advanced writing. Also, no other formal documents or otherwise exist, saying that Shakespeare wrote his plays. Finally, the most convincing piece of evidence, a word found in Hamlet, honorificabilitudinitatibus, is an anagram for hi ludi F.Baconis nati tuiti orbi" or "these plays born of F.Bacon are preserved for the world and Francis Bacon is one of the proposed authors who wrote the "Shakespearean plays"
