pretty much nothing
i'm a highschool senior (18) and we just read it this year. i didn't really take anything from it, but now me and my friends meme some of our favorite phrases at each other.
I sort of got an anti-Jew message, to be honest. There's the "neither a borrower nor lender be" line, although that's Polonius sort of just rambling, as famous a line as it is.
But my big thing about Hamlet is everyone in Hamlet who "schemes" - who attempts to NOT boldly go forth, be forthright and honest, who instead attempts to hide their feelings and commit subversion and subterfuge, will end up dead. Hamlet, although I've heard some argue is a sensitive male contrast to previous, more "savage" heroes like Beowulf, is in fact kind of a dumb, effete, procrastinating, prick. He's basically a numale, although that's not entirely fair - the numales of today are certainly worse than Hamlet. But he's a numale in comparison to his foil Laertes, who is tricked by Claudius into a poison attempt on Hamlet - which, of course, backfires, resulting in a tragic ending.
tl;dr hamlet is about how being a schemey jew gets u kilt

nothing. my English teacher thought A Midsummer Night's Dream (in movie form) was more important.
