All My Life Analysis

Subjective, or objective, perhaps both, using a Star Wars bed sheet for the subject along with two different sources to gain our information will form a comparison, a clear distinction between the styles of analysis. “All My Life”, written by John Freyer, along with the E-bay web site will be where the information will be collected, same item, yet exceedingly different ways of letting their audience identify what’s for sale. John Freyer’s, work appears to be overwhelmingly subjective, emphasizing the history of it than the actual features of it. E-bay, unquestionably objective, with experienced sellers who are perspicuous with details in the description of the items, awards the buyer a distinct account of the seller’s merchandise. However, …show more content…
More often than not, it will also include an array of pictures to show all aspects of the subject. In this process, they will also be able to establish where it comes from including the length of delivery plus how costly shipping the item would be. The audience for an objective writing will be an individual looking for something specific, one who recognizes exactly what they’re looking for. For instance, a vintage Star Wars sheet with the smallest amount of noticeable difference between the middle and the edges, which means timeworn, along with slightly used. The blurb also refers to coming from a smoke free and pet free home. The objective writing will communicate to the reader everything needed to make an informed decision with little room for buyer’s remorse. The objective style would be my preference in buying from a seller since being informed of all of the details acceptable and the detestable facilitate an informed decision. Don’t forget that having pictures and several of them from different angles meet the utmost fundamental need in order to make the feature item stand out and convey the written word to the buyer. Finally, subjective allows the imagination of the reader to go along for the ride with the writer while objective tells it just like it

    In the book "If I Ever Get Out of Here" the author Eric Gansworth writes about the dangers of assumptions. He writes about this theme throughout the book by introducing situations in which an assumption of a character or a group, often times based on race, turns out to be incorrect and leads to issues between the two people or groups. Lewis and his family both make assumptions about George's family because he is from off the reservation and there are assumptions made about Indians and Lewis by teachers, classmates, store workers, and more. While Lewis is being bullied by Evan, a kid at his school, many people didn't believe that the situation was as bad as Lewis claimed. When discussing the problem in the lunchroom some of the kids agreed that Lewis is just "making the easy Indian claim" (p. 207).…

    After comparing the descriptions between the “allmylife” items and the eBay items there was a noticeable difference between how each was described. After I reviewed a few items on the “All My Life” sales list and selected the “Fine Green Shirt” item to compare to eBay sale items. The descriptions that I found on eBay were a combination of both subjective and objective due to the fact that the author of the auction provided facts about the material the shirt was made out of, which was stated as 100% cotton, but also an opinion about the shirt being “an American classic”. However the description of the shirt listed on the “all My Life” list was a subjective description since the author only talked about his views and opinions on how some people who golf or go to school would dress in business casual. For example, he stated he is “a full time…

    For example this description used a famous cookbook that most people would recognize by title “Kind of like the Joy of Cooking is to Food” (Freyer, 2001). The whole story behind the listing was about how bad his first batch of home brew was, and with each batch he improved his skills so much, John impressed a master brewer at the Empire Brewing Company. The first eBay page the listing was a combination of subjective and objective. For example the seller used part of the cover “The home brewer's Bible” (eBay) which makes a person think it’s the best book out there and no other book compares. The second eBay site was straight and forward using an objective listing “Stouts, ales, lagers, porters, bitters, pilsners, specialty beers, and meads . . .…

    Dante Alighieri once said, “There is no greater sorrow than to recall a happy time when miserable.” Though not directly mentioned, the idea of the quote seems to be explored thoroughly in both “Where I Lived, and What I Lived For,” by Henry David Thoreau, and “Once More to the Lake,” by E.B. White. While both of these authors float around several thoughts including reality, advancements, and living in general, they take very different approaches to do so. In “Once More to the Lake,” White reminisces on his journey back to a place he spent many summers as a child. His essay takes the form of a narrative, with him explaining in great detail the beauty and isolation of the lake.…

    Borrowing the genre of melodrama, Almodóvar’s award-winning film, All About My Mother (1999), features transgender and post-queer study of sexuality. Apart from presenting two pre-op transgenders, the film renders a variety of “abnormal” intimate relationships, including the protagonist, Manuela’s family without a father, Huma’s ultimately failed lesbian relationship with Nina, and the family formed at the end of the film, constituted by Manuela, Rosa’s baby, and queer girlfriends. These unusual forms of intimacy disturb the hereto-sexist institutions, e.g. marriage and family. Portraying gender, sexuality, and identity as unfixed, the film mocks the conventional perception by interweaving the theatrical performance with the real life: On the one hand, the fixity and stereotype of femininity and masculinity are fostered by cinematic representations, exemplified by Hollywood productions; On the other hand, the reference to…
