Great Essays
"Oh, my god." A loud screech escaped you, causing you to jump out of Bellamy's arms. Bugs. You hated them with a passion. Even the thought of bugs made you sick to the stomach. One of the only things you miss about the ark was the fact that is wasn’t bug infested like down on earth.
"What's up with you?" Bellamy asked with a puzzled look.
"KILL IT!" You scream as the spider climbs onto the blanket you were previously in.
"Kill what?" He stands up and searches the floor.
"C-cockroach." Your eyes start to water as you point at the petrifying oversized bug.
Bellamy lets out a loud laugh as he finally sees the vile creature.
"You're scared of a harmless cockroach?" He questioned with a laugh, walking over to it.
"PLEASE JUST KILL IT." Bellamy

Furthermore, humor stands out in “The Monster” by Toby Litt by repetitively mocking Empiricism through the life of a narcissistic monster----an ironic life, since it pursues self-awareness with a memory leak.…

    Monsters are not merely fictional creatures that hide in closets, or under beds waiting to pounce on their unsuspecting victims. One could say that human beings have the capability to become monsters. After all, it is the average individual who creates a culture of fear by perpetuating stigmas like: hate and prejudice. It seems as if fear derives solely from the environment in which the monster dwells, which in essence is everyday life. However, people do not just transform into monsters for the fun of it; their transformation is intentional, and that intention is often suppressed by a hidden agenda to manipulate other individuals, or the culture itself.…

    As he is created by man, the appearance of the monster is unlike any other. The creation of the monster from bones and artificial parts lends itself to being representative of the working class (Benford 181). This confirms that the working class is a man made creation and Sandra Benford states that the artificial parts lead to the monster being mechanically inclined. Part of the reason the monster is unnatural is his physical perfection, not only is the monster stronger, faster, and more resilient the humans, he has the intelligence to rival man (Shelley 31). This seemingly physical perfection of the monster is akin to a machine, it is simply too powerful and reliable in its strength to be human.…

Others believe humanity is bombarded with monstrosity, as if it is a characteristic that we all carry, and very few utilize the meaning of “monster” as a societal or mental fear. I recognize the term as something more standard that many also conceptualize; as ginormous, snarling, blood-thirsty beasts. Beasts are the perfect perception of a monster.…
