    Justin Damato 4/23/14 Micro Econ Writing Project Kraft Macaroni and Cheese Vs. Generic Brand Everyone has his or her own personal preference towards buying generic or name brand products. When shopping in a grocery store does the type of pasta really matter to you? How about the type of macaroni and cheese you reach for? Same ingredients, same directions on how to mix and stir up the final manufactured goods but is it really the “same”. To a lot of people it might not make a difference

    Cartoons on a television are glue to children. Children will spend hours a day watching their favorite cartoons, such as “SpongeBob SquarePants” or “Adventure Time.” Unfortunately, the content on these shows, and several others, can harm children. Directly, cartoons can affect how children think and act; additionally, this leads to the indirect effect of children physically hurting one another. Children daily see hundreds of violent acts on television. Most parents notice the obvious acts of gore

    As children, we were all mesmerized by the bravery of the superheroes on television. Wide-eyed, we heard the cheers of the town as they saved the day and vowed to follow their footsteps and contribute great feats. After we got older, we honored the vows and advanced society, bettered lives, and left our mark on the world–due to everyday courage. It seems only fitting that we take a moment to define courage, as courage is more than a superhero. An act of courage is an act that is risky, but pursued

    When I was a young child around the years between seven and twelve, I used to come home from school and watch Family Guy. My mom would often catch me watching this show and yell at me, but to be honest I thought it was funny. So I told my dad that I was watching Family Guy quite often and he didn’t even care, so it all worked out. One thing that I noticed through all of this, is that I knew I was watching a great cartoon when I would watch ut over and over again and feel entertained by it. That’s

    Squidward Tentacles While SpongeBob is the embodiment of children and the rebellious brand Nickelodeon is trying to articulate to their young viewers, not every character in the show shares SpongeBob sense of adventure and fun as he does. Unlike SpongeBob, characters such as Mr. Krabs and Squidward oppose SpongeBob’s uniqueness and strengths. They do not understand SpongeBob, similar to how Nickelodeon is trying to brand the “us vs. them” rhetoric between children and adults. Nickelodeon wants children

    No Constraints I was about eight years old when my brother and I ran out of our house screaming when we saw Regan from The Exorcist doing a spider walk down the stairs with blood coming out of her mouth. When interviewing my mom, she said “I didn’t have concerns with what you were watching or doing on the computer. I trusted you.” My mother was very lenient when managing my media use because I could watch any television show, any movie, and play any video game I wanted. I was also allowed to search

    In February of 2002 I was three, and my family and I had just settled into our new house in West Hempstead. I can still remember the smell of the newly painted walls, the freshly polished floor, and the twinkle of the TV. Are you ready kids “Aye Aye Captain” I can’t hear you “AYE AYE CAPTAIN!” This is the sound that filled me with joy. I plopped down in front of the TV, and on the screen appeared a porous, yellow sponge with square pants. Blue eyed, with three eyelashes on each eye, two prominent

    Chris Stapleton released his debut album, Traveller, in the Spring of 2015. This album is characterized by what I would describe as a traditional country feel, but with a slightly more modern sound, or to be more technical, a country rock meets blues album. This record, and Chris Stapleton himself, went relatively unnoticed by the general public after initial release. It was not until the 2015 CMA awards when Stapleton performed “Tennessee Whiskey” with Justin Timberlake that his album truly took
