Gag

the distance he then balanced himself in the balcony until he realize he in more on the yacht. “He struggled up the surface and tried to cry out, but the wash from the speeding yacht slapped him in the face of and the salt water in his mouth made him gag and strangle.”(2). As Rainsford falls in the water he remembered…

My first review will be on the hilarious and probably not very medically accurate sitcom Scrubs. The show ran nine glorious seasons (although some may say the last season was vastly sub-par) and survived cancellation at least once. That’s 182 episodes that made us laugh, cry and follow along with the addicting characters marriages, babies and promotions. Besides Grey’s Anatomy this is where I’m sure college students learned their basic medical knowledge. I also assume now whenever I’m in a…

College isn’t something that’s for everyone, my parents made sure I knew that right from the start. With no expectations of me and no real consequences at home for not trying in school, one would think I wouldn’t try, right? Wrong. I set expectations for myself, and made sure I met them. Grades and ACT scores have never been something I could show off to anyone, until now. College applications have shown that. Growing up, I had so many different influences to help me decide what I wanted to do…

and it concerned me, as he was a fellow neighbor. However, when he started to blame me, I started to reach my breaking point. However, once he killed Pete, a fellow, innocent neighbor, I couldn’t stand it anymore. He said it was a gag, so I said,” Does this look like a gag to you?” He still argue though, so I proved my point by saying, “Charlie, there’s a dead man on the sidewalk, and you killed him! Now I notice something, as when I tried to stop the fight, I was protecting Charlie as well;…

Hop Frog was justified to a certain extent in what he did. He was justified, because the King has always been cruel to him. The King captured and forced Hop Frog into being a fool against his will. The King has been bullying him since his first day there. Hop Frog gets forced, by the King, to drink wine at his parties, because he gets so excited that he is driven to madness. ““Drink I say!” Shouted the monster.” (Poe 5) Hop Frog hates drinking, because of this. Since he was captured, the King…

Are Lemen’s statements about the inn’s owners, customers, and activities protected by the U.S. Constitution? Should such statements be protected? In whose favor should the court rule? Why? The First Amendment to the United States Constitution states that "Congress shall make no law abridging the freedom of speech." The right to free speech is fundamental and is one of the personal rights and liberties that are protected by the Fourteenth Amendment. However, the right to freedom of speech is not…

environment after he falls into the sea. Fighting the water, Rainsford tries to stay above the surface long enough to cry out to the yacht, but "the wash from the speeding yacht [slaps] him in the face and the salt water in his open mouth [makes] him gag and strangle"(Connell 15). Through his eloquent language and vivid details, including an example of personification, Connell adeptly depicts Rainford's clash against the forces of nature, leaving the reader on the edge of his seat as he waits…

shaky personal life, but he has found that this only adds to the texture of his work. Desperate for the affection that his father with held, the selfconscious young Simon found a substitute of sorts by teaming up with his older brother Danny to write gags for stand up comics and, later on, sketches for the Sid Caesar’s “Your Show of Shows” and…

On an auditory aspect, these breeds of dogs will often be generally loud breathers. Increased panting, snorting and snoring are a few things most owners experience on a daily basis. Some dogs with more severe forms of Brachycephalia will cough and gag. Overheating is a big issue and is caused when the increase of panting swells and narrows the airways even more than they already are which leads to increased anxiety in the dog(CIDD). Excessive heat, exercise and excitement can cause cyanosis and…

Mary Bennett is a rather intriguing character. I find that Austen’s prose is always providing a judgement of her, yet I wonder if that judgement reflects a lack of understanding on the author and protagonist themselves. Take the following lines for example: Her sister Mary, who having, in consequence of being the only plain one in the family, worked hard for knowledge and accomplishments, was always impatient for display (17). In this characterization, Mary comes off as both unattractive and…
