Idiot

There’s no easy way to say this, but I think you’re an idiot and I have the statistics to back it up! I don’t really think this, but author/director Michal Moore probably does. There’s plenty of things you can say to defend yourself to refute this blunt, insulting statement. However, Michael Moore doesn’t really care. He doesn’t mean to make the most compelling argument; he just wants to incite you, make you think, and entertain. This is clear in almost all of his work including his book, Idiot Nation. In this, he discusses the downward slope of the American public’s knowledge and the poor state of American schooling, which he has no problem completely tearing apart. You truly have to take what he says with a grain of salt. Knowing this, it is important to know what you’re getting into when you read something by Moore, somebody who writes to amuse and provoke. He already has an established credibility as this kind of author and through that he can create a stylistic narrative to achieve his ultimate purpose:…

girl you stared at like an idiot for five minutes.” Rick crosses his arms in pride of his jab. I look down at Katrina talking to her friends, each one of them a thorn in my side. They surrounded her at all times like socializing gatekeepers. The only time Katrina was without them was for 50 minutes a day during Chemistry. I had 50 minutes a day with her. 50 minutes to trade notes, formulas, and other lab partner pleasantries. Today that’d change. I hoped. “Dude have you seen Chloe’s boyfriend?…

Farewell My Love My face was blank with no expression, as my fellow classmates cried their eyes out. Hugging and kissing went on simultaneously while others waved goodbye through the windows of the crowded, filthy bus. I felt no emotion other than the warm, silky, hands of Amy who sat beside me on our ride home. “Idiots aren’t they… huh?” Amy smirked faintly. “Totally who would cry about such a thing,” I snickered. “ Why can’t they understand that high school starts only in a few months and…

actions and what is being said about her , can tell a lot about her personality. Miss Strangeworth’s personality can be analyzed by considering what she does. She is very wicked. Paragraph three on page 370 states directly from Ms.Strangeworth ‘’ Didn’t you ever see an idiot child before ? Some people just shouldn’t have children, should they ?” saying that about someone is mean. She has no right to say that about anyone. Strangeworth…

What did change my attitude WAS my inner idiot, because he was getting pretty sick of being treated like an idiot. Finally, it was when I started to teach myself to read properly at the age of 13, that I started to gradually turn everything around and dicovered my passion for education, learning and reading, of course. However, I still had to play catch-up throughout my secondary, A-level and University periods of eduacation and, while I did gradually improve my knowledge set, my confidence was…

“A shotgun went off in his leg every time he put it down and he thought, you’re a fool, a dang fool, an awful fool, an awful idiot, a dang idiot, and a dang fool: look at the mess the where’s the mop, look at the mess, and what do you do? Pride, dang it, and temper, and you’re junked it all, at the very start you vomit on everything one on top of another, Beatty, the women, Mildred, Clarisse, everything. No excuse, though, no excuse. A fool, a dang fool, go give yourself up!” -- Fahrenheit 451,…

performance and have no enough grades to enter a good school. My parents wanted me to get better education in a better high-school, so they spent quit a few of money and sent me to the school which is good in their eyes. No exaggeration, I learned nothing in the first tow years of high school. I sat with my friends in the last row of the classroom, and played self-phone games or Chinese chess almost every class. However, in the last year of high school, I have to attend the National University…

yourself and even find a path to a new identity. This time the story was different, I was with someone I met a year before and with who I was dating. In the morning we woke up early just to see the sunrise. An odd image I must say, fifteen young people hiking at five in the morning. We walked up to the tallest hill we could find nearby, attempting to have an unique view of everything beyond our eyeballs. In front of us a valley that leads to the pacific ocean so that you could trick yourself to…

comforable and enjoyable shoes I have ever worn. If I wouldn’t be questioned so much about wearing them then I would wear them daily Cheerleaders We know sometimes we start the fight song before you’re ready, or we’ll unexpectidly play a song just out of the blue, but just know, our job is just as hard as ours and you guys are doing awesome. Competitions Not only is performing an exillerating experience, you also meet so many new people. Sometimes it’s nice finding people who enjoy the same…

but hindered him from interacting socially like most of his other peers. He could not even talk to his crush, Holly without running away in tears. Even though it is difficult to talk to someone we may really like, a person should run away in tears out of anxiety. I can relate to Greg on many levels. My opinion of my fellow peers was very low. I thought most of them were “stupid, immature and ignorant.” Not as many of them were as stupid as I thought, in fact I was the stupid one. I still…
