Satire Project

All of the bad makeup habits and the horrible lighting in my house just created one crazy, orange tinted, non-blush wearing looking

When someone says the word immigration, what comes to your mind? Some that came to a country when they aren’t really supposed to be there? A person that leaves their country to go to a new? From place to place? Although that is partly true, it’s not the whole truth. They have many reasons to come here, like wars and inequality. If they are going through this, then why do our peers in America discriminate them. If we were in their shoes, would we want more problems?

I enjoyed reading your post for this week’s discussion board forum. I may have to say that your thoughts are good thoughts; never think that you’re thinking too deeply. Deep thoughts carry stronger outputs, remember that. First, I would like to say that I didn’t think about poverty, immigrants and human trafficking until you stated this in your feedback. Immigrants and human trafficking is extremely important when it comes to VDPV being seen in the United States. There are so many scenarios when individuals are not able to get the required vaccination to keep them from contracting and spreading diseases. I believe that God wants us all to be protected from the harm of earthly diseases, but what are we to do for those who are in difficult circumstances.

Popular television shows aids to heavily influence American audiences, perpetuating, and problematic ideas about homosexuality. Not all mainstream media adheres to traditional social ideas. South Park uses satire to deconstruct heteronormative views on homosexuality. Therefore, homosexuality is accepted more widespread through use of mainstream media.

So far this school year I believe things have been quite mellow, but it's still the beginning of the year and I have two less classes than previous school years, so it makes sense. However AP Computer Science is not working out, and everyone else in the class seems leagues ahead of me, and are stooping to a lower level of learning just so newbies like me can keep up. I should have seen it coming though since Mr. Daugherty's classes are fast-paced math courses and in retrospect I have never been good at mathematics. I'm thinking about switching out of the class but then I might have to find another one to switch into, and I'm aware that all the classes that interest me are full and on their way already. I'm falling behind in my college prepping although I've already looked at a few colleges that I find suitable but I need to work on my personal statements and resume and so forth.

Wide, sunny beaches, yellow sand and clear water paints the picture perfect Sydney. Cut to Mount Druitt, a town filled with graffiti, garbage, and government housing, where the controversial new documentary Struggle Street is set. This borderline ‘mockumentary’ aims to show a side of Sydney that is rarely seen, but unless the producer – David Galloway - set out to do this in the most depreciating manner possible, the documentary has missed the mark. Although the audience duly tries to feel sympathy for the shocking stories “uncovered”, the mocking undertones undermine all seriousness, removing almost all chances for the audience to feel legitimate, heartfelt compassion.

So the last two newsletters, in my opinion, were a pleasant diversion and definitely cathartic for me! Soaring rhetoric and amazing separation of independent clauses with perfectly placed semi-colons, passing references to Zero Mostel, zombie apocalypses, orange urine, loan calculations; plus, an obscure Bible reference, regarding seed sowing and free range donkeys. However, no matter how high you fly, someone always seems to be there ready, willing, and eager to shoot you down, and when the other shoe finally does drop from the sky, it usually lands in a steaming pile of doggy doo! So back to the old grindstone W.E. go; but, before unflinchingly diving headlong into number two, let me

In general, hubris is defined as having excessive pride or overconfidence, which can eventually lead to a downfall. In the past, Greeks described hubris as direct defiance of the gods wishes, however, the meaning of hubris has developed over time. Today, hubris is seen more as having a lack of humility or blind arrogance that leads an individual to believe that they are above typical human limitations, essentially godlike. One such individual that exhibits this ill-appealing quality is the current president of the United States, Donald Trump. Over the last couple of years, and since beginning his term in office, President Trump has displayed excessive pride, arrogance, and self-confidence through his political rallies, press conferences, demeaning tweets, and much more. Unlike the leaders before him, our president is simply “…a real estate developer known for golf courses, casinos, and a Moscow beauty pageant; he’s a gambler with other people’s money who exhibits poor judgment” (Blake, “Trump Sharing Highly Classified Information with Russia Shows His Extreme Hubris”). Examining President Trump’s decisions and the examples of hubris presented in Sophocles’ “Oedipus Tyrannus”, Andrew George’s “The Epic of Gilgamesh: the Babylonian Epic Poem and Other Texts in Akkadian and Sumerian” and the “Holy Bible: New International Version”, shows that his hubristic character will result in a tragic end for him and the entire nation alike.

TICK… TICK… TICK... Okay don’t look at the clock for 10 minutes. God, what even are those symbols on the board? GODDDDD, this is so boring. Just twirl your pencil and look at the board. Get pumped for the U.S. open this weekend. You ready to get out there and try that cork 7 that you’ve been working on for almost two months? That perfectly cut halfpipe is probably just sitting there right now with no one on it. Maybe... the halfpipe for this contest will be as good as the one a couple years ago. Remember, your first real competition! Who was the coach that year? Oh yeah, it was Evan. Hahaha that comp was awesome! As my legs start tingling, my heart pounds against my ribs like the bass drum at a rock concert, and a sonorous voice at a distance blasts over the speakers surrounding the icy giant glaring back at me: “Dropping into the pipe next is George Mckeever-Parkes

Plip Plop goes the pitter patter of the rain on the freshly cut grass on the sidewalk leading to the inside of the school. I walk slowly to my locker as my friends and I talk about the football game that was going to be playing after school. I open my locker and grab my books out of it. I shove my fat backpack and heavy jacket into it and run before the first bell rings. I plop my books onto the desk next to Samantha Miller, the most popular girl in school. She instantly starts talking. Especially first period. Social Studies is the worst to have in the morning. Getting up early in the morning, to come to school all groggy only to hear about a bunch of old dead people who apparently just couldn’t stop asking for freedom. Like STOP LIVING IN THE PAST.

Throughout my life, I have continued to push slang and sarcasm to its limits. In many scenarios, I will up the ante until there is nothing left. Whether it be at work, school, or home, my use of satire is very prevalent. My friends are the exact same way; we will always have our own sarcastic friend group. Most people understand the use of satire, but others will easily feel disrespected. I use slang on a regular basis because most people can easily relate to it. Though I speak sarcastically and pointlessly at times, I force myself to keep my writing focused and purposeful, because I think it’s the most important area of communication. All that will be left when die are my accomplishments, and I want my writing to be a part of those accomplishments.

In a technological and social sphere of cynics, commentators, and subjectivity, cult comedy introduces itself to the user as a category of media entertainment. Evidence indicates that through its encoded text, television allows the digitalized ability to inspire, fortify, and modify its viewership’s perceptions. Television has demonstrated characteristics found in both the instrumentalist and determinist technological school of thought, as well as an established staple in the average home. However, the plots and narratives in the television show South Park instigate a widespread discourse about relevant and representative content, which is far more influential than the images on the screen. In concentrating on the intimate stories of four male

It's William Logan coming to you live from the Main Office with an incredibly important message for anyone in Grades 9, 10, 11, or 12.

This TV series was inspired by comic books. All good TV series have their crutch that makes them brilliant, be they the dynamic between Mulder and Scully, the surreal feeling of grounding in the Sopranos, to the intricate science of CSI. This TV show took the risk of using Movie-style action scenes, which is risky because it is often very expensive if you want to make it look good. Considering the fact they had a TV budget, they have done a good job.

Satire is a specific classification of writing that occasionally makes utilization of realistic and performing expressions with the aim of scorning society into self-change. With social criticism being its fundamental objective, it uses dark sarcasm as its primary device to get the point across. Satire impacts people to reconsider themselves so as to alter senseless thoughts and behaviors. Different techniques are utilized in delivering the satirical impact, those of which use wit as their primary weapon. These methodologies mix the acing of matching unimportant and authentic matters as one joke, demonstrating compliment yet meaning the contrary to show ambiguity, and asking rhetorical questions. Moreover, the creator may downplay an issue keeping in mind the end goal to move the group of audience towards the genuine significance of the theme, antagonistically; distortion is utilized to bring down the effect of an issue to its lesser quality. Aggregately, these procedures are practiced to draw out the human follies and vices in society. In Molière 's Tartuffe and Jonathan Swift 's article A Modest Proposal, both diagonally condemn and criticize human conduct and the discernment we have towards others. Through a comedian conveyance, these creators offer an understanding past the apparently self-evident, and expect to enhance this flawed custom of one sidedness as opposed to disposing of it.
