Bullshit

Rhetoric Analysis After analyzing the following videos, I must start by addressing that in my opinion they convey humor in a unique way, not undermining the fact that said videos are taken from real history. As this is my first time watching Drunk History, and the two first videos are from that show. I must say, that I found these videos to be very comical and educational at the same time. One thing they all have in common are words, that are most likely used in a conversational and drunken…

think analytically and learn their history before making judgements about people and ideas while the father tells Derek, and in turn Dan, to trust their gut, only believe those who have your back (meaning other white men) and that it is all “..nigger bullshit.” This storyline plays out very differently for the two boys. While Derek ends up brutally murdering two black teenagers for trying to steal his car,…

He changed a lot, ever since that summer of 2013. He became really different. I don’t know what made him change, or who made him change. But I still had snaps of him where he would tell me he wanted to run away with me, or some bullshit like that. He got signed to play college football at some school in Kansas, and when he told me that, I was like ‘oh my go.’ I was really happy for him, because I genuinely thought that he wasn’t going to go to college. I was really happy for him…

Innocent Pearl Pearl is the product of sin. In the Scarlet Letter by Nathaniel Hawthorne, the author explores and describes the life of an adulterer and her child. Pearl was born because of sin, and with that, Pearl is free. Pearl is a beautiful child and Hester thinks she doesn’t deserve a child like her.

Beauty had worked in Mrs. Adrian's sewing studio for many years now, but never had she the experienced what she had over the last week. A costumer had been displeased with her and the seamstress' work, but Beauty had denied her accusations of not following her instructions. She was sure they'd done it to the letter. The old crone, obviously offended, had shouted - "should you prick your finger upon a sewing needle, you will fall into an slumber until the world ends!" She had laughed at the…

On the evening of October 13th, 2016, I attended my first Alcoholic Anonymous meeting. It was on the second floor of the Fayetteville VA, in the auditorium. As I ran upstairs, I bumped into a person who looked familiar, and told them so. “I was thinking the same thing,” they told me. We spoke briefly and discovered we did not know each other. Inside the auditorium, a large square of tables was surrounded by chairs, most of which were occupied. Behind the tables was a single row of freestanding…

No matter how many times I’ll have to write one, reflections are always difficult. They make you look at yourself and your work and dissect every good and bad aspect of it. Sometimes it’s hard because just the task of analyzing one’s own work can be tricky, but my personal biggest issue is learning how to fix what I find specifically wrong. Part of this is due to my own writing style, along with the bad habits that come with it. However, throughout this class, I have learned more about how to…

The study of Law and the process of Judicial Rhetoric are two concepts that have been around since the days of Aristotle. While both have transitioned with time, the core of both of them have stayed the same. Where there is law, there has to be some sort of Judicial process. This procedure is how justice is administered and the Truth is upheld in society. You cannot look at one of these ideas without the other. In fact, in order to better understand this analysis there are a two terms that need…

Well, I went to Sick Boss at the Lido. I first passed Chris 's place, and detected some light, very faint, and, anyway, I have no way of knowing if he indeed still resides there. I know that if he sighted me his conspiratorial mind would immediately jump to extreme ideas. But this only dilutes my message and intention with negativity; the reason I passed it is because I am interested in him, and hope he is well. Passing Chris 's necessarily means I overshot the Lido, consequently my arrival at…

In this year’s Super Bowl, Budweiser ran an advertisement that called “Stand By Me,” which details the process and shipment of water to places in the United States were natural disasters have taken place recently, namely Florida, Texas, Puerto Rico, and California. Throughout the 60 second spot, we see the process and the work of the factories employees particularly the manager of the plant, Kevin Fahrenkrog, put into transferring the normal beer distributor into a water distributor. This…
