Satire About Driving

Decent Essays
Driving is the best feeling ever. We all do it, or one day we will, most likely in our teen years, but not me. You see, my first swerve was in my early, early ages, back when Dora was your main explorer. I owned the hottest ride on the block, my Barbie Jeep. The Barbie Jeep was a present from my mom on my birthday. Right before she gave me her gift she said, “Since I’m going to have to teach you how to drive anyway, so why not start now?” I think she knew I understood every single word she said to me that day. Now that I think about it, she actually says meaningful things to me every year on my birthday. My Jeep had been the best thing to ever happen to me at that time. My best friend and I would take turns driving it up and down

    “Tuck and roll” that’s what they say when jumping off or out of a moving vehicle but that didn’t work for me. I was about five years old, I was visiting my grandparents that I hadn’t seen in a while. I was riding with my dad on a four wheeler and I was having fun until I felt the four wheeler jump, and then I turned around to see my dad jumping off. That was when I got scared. I tried to drive it, but with my family, chasing and yelling for me to jump off it was hard to do.…

    Satire In Brave New World

    • 982 Words
    • 4 Pages

    Samuel L. Jackson once said, “We’ve come a long way in our thinking, but also in our moral decay.” This quote holds true today as society stays rapidly changing and people become more and more desensitized to the horrors of the world. The line between right and wrong fades and turns to a larger gray area, and many things that happen in society today make us question how we, as a collective people, ended up where we are and how we acquired the customs we have today. Aldous Huxley, in his novel Brave New World, uses a great deal of satire and exaggeration to express his concerns for the society he was born into and bring attention to the problems of moral decay, drug dependency, and brainwashing, among other things, in the world.…

Cops is a reality show where criminals are arrested. I learned that the catchy title song “Bad Boys Bad Boys Whacha Gonna do When They Come for You’’ really means something after all.

    Street Drugs Satire

    Street drugs have always held poor connotations. Anyone who related with them would be immediately recognized as an addict or criminal. That is until opioids and prescription painkillers came around, when your white suburban mom could be just as dependent on a high as your average heroin junkie. I believe if opioids are continually available, other drugs should be legalized, focusing mainly on marijuana. Opioids: legal, completely accessible, and easily prescribed.…

    One ominous morning of 2008 I woke up to a saddened atmosphere. I look around at my parents, who are hardcore republicans, and asked them what was wrong. They said that they had lost the election. My eight year old self replied that they never won because they never ran, and of course they explained that their party lost the run for presidency. For the years to come every time I would look at the news and see a little “R” next to a person name I would know that they are the “good guys”.…

    Corruption is a dire issue facing the US today. The most prominent corruption of them all would be the Police Officers who think they’re above the law and who like to kill innocent people in their spare time. Those corrupt cops is what feeds the media’s fire and quenches their thirst with blood that is on the officer's hands.

    Satire On Drugs

    In the United States something as simple as a drug possession charge can get you into serious trouble, with some offenses even marked as felonies. (Controlled Substances Act, 2014) This is a ludicrous idea, drug crimes are usually victimless, restricting drug usage violates basic human rights, and even tobacco and alcohol are legal. In addition to these things, putting drug charges on a person’s criminal record, or sending someone to jail on drug charges pushes more people to a life of crime. For these reasons, I believe that people should not be punished for using drugs.…

    This was probably one of the best days of my life. Not because I had gotten a really nice guitar, but the fact that my aunt had thought I had gotten good and responsible enough to have one of her most dear possessions.
