Subject: Re: "going medieval"



I overheard a student say that another student was "going medieval." Since I

teach an HEL course, I interrupted to find out what it meant and was told that

it meant 'going psycho, berserk'. This is a new one for me. Any other

instances? Any explanation for the connection to medieval?



This was used in the movie "Pulp Fiction."
