Was the deceased court jester whose skull is exhumed by the gravedigger in Act 5, Scene 1, of Shakespeare's Hamlet. The sight of Yorick's skull evokes a monologue from Prince Hamlet on the vile effects of death:

Pianist Andre Tchaikowsky donated his skull to the Royal Shakespeare Company for use in theatrical productions, hoping that it would be used as the skull of Yorick. Tchaikowsky died in 1982. His skull was used during rehearsals for a 1989 RSC production of Hamlet starring Mark Rylance, but the company eventually decided to use a replica skull in the performance.
Alas, poor Yorick! I knew him, Horatio; a fellow of infinite jest, of most excellent fancy

somebody whose humour kills a conversation or party; a person who thinks they are incredibly funny and popular, but who everyone else thinks is a real twat. somebody who laughs at their own jokes, but who no one else finds remotely funny. Derived from the dead clown in Shakespeare's 'Hamlet'
Herbert told us this bad joke about a Chinese dyslexic dairy farmer who bought a herd of woks. Nobody laughed at all. He's a right yorick.

The most forgotten character in the MOBA League of Legends.

Seriously nobody has ever played against a Yorick.

Yorick is one with confidence with what he does. He is very attractive to many girls however he only has an eye for one girl who may not show it yet. This person is the only child usually and is afraid of reject. This person is a perfectionist
Person 1. Hey my name is Yorick
Person 2. So attractive
