How to Stop Being the Boogeyman Who Lurks in the Night The first step to stop being seen as the Boogeyman who lurks in the night, is to stop lurking in the night. I would know, you see, since I too once was a boogeyman who lurked in the night. If you grew up, as many Boogeyman do, without learning our history you may not know why us who are no longer Boogeymen who lurk in the Night might not want to be seen the Boogeymen who lurk in the night. Let me explain it to you, for some reason we are considered scary, our fangs, our claws, and our deceptive way can hide them, these all make human children fear us, and human adults distrust us. All the screaming, lynching, and burning at the stake made us prefer the night, less bloodshed you see? Now though, in this age of racial equality the question has come to pass: why can’t we be the next liberated group? So now that you understand our history and our cause, let me resume my instruction. The second step is to hide you claws and fangs, it can be uncomfortable, I know this, but you don’t want to make the humans too angsty, that is not good for our fatality rate. You may have been taught that hiding these parts of yourself is unhealthy, but what is gained without questioning what you are told. The 3rd step is to buy human clothes, well technically steal the clothes since no human would ever sell to people like us, and then put them on your body. I’m inclined not to tell you to wear them because they are not like our clothes, they…

in a matter of hours, the killing is so swift that no one can react fast enough. “Life. I will learn everything there is about life. Information is packed into living things so tightly”(Wilson 18). The remnants of the human army strategize and try to come up with a plan in between themselves and try to contact other people in the world but the communications towers are blocked off by Archos so there is no way of communicating. One man named Lurker was a very intelligent but a silly prankster…

community to expand and bring in new members. However, there are also members who can prove to be harmful to the community, intentionally or not. There are those that Volkman calls passive lurkers, these are people who often look at and take in the community’s content. However, they hardly ever contribute any new content or something beneficial to the community. Although, passive lurkers do not seem to affect the community since they simply consume content from it, they can cause some harm.…

Maybe you know of the Laborer Who breaches the woods in the time before the sun is awake Who tills the fields as we slumber And returns before the sun breaks the sky Yes, the Laborer has brought good fortune to our land and crop But do not be deceived children he offers no protection He dares not cross with the rest of the family as they not cross him A blood bond between them that must not be broken All he offers is his guidance to those that want it For that is all he can give you before you…

children and face backlash from society. Maintaining an image was most important. Fast forward a few years, the old standard is irrelevant. In the article, Kristin Lurker discusses how economics alters the perception of pregnancy among race and socioeconomic class. I agree with many of her points on this specific topic. Poverty does contribute to the stigma of teenage pregnancy among minorities. Individuals living in low-income neighborhoods have less access to a lot of the components that…

stimulation”. The online world of communication continues to rapidly change everyday. In “Gender Wars in Cyberspace”, Nathan Cobb explains, “ Statistically speaking, of course, it’s still a man’s cyberworld out there”. While Cobb may have thought this to be true back in 1995, today his statement would be very false. If you go online today, you will see that it not a man’s or woman’s cyberspace, it’s both. Both genders dominate the cyberworld, however they do it in different ways. While women…

surveillance and preventive justice. The opening sequence, which is around ten minutes in duration, is basic for the understanding of the premises present in the film, but also, and especially, in order to represent extremely efficaciously the ways in which a society is constructed which is dominated by, and, more importantly, which is accustomed to constant surveillance and monitoring. Thus, during this opening sequence, we are presented with an ordinary man about to go to work; everything is…

The sample consisted of 29 convenience randomly selected from the higher education sector and the community college sector from students who were enrolled in Change11 course from e-mail invitation and announce on Facebook, Twitter, and Blog. Thus, the research may be difficult to generalize the findings to general learners or to other courses. Due to, the qualitative research is the study of the cause in particular. They use a case study for implementing the method involves in-depth research and…

My use of interrogative sentence was to show the main character’s confusion and disorientation for example "is that really me?" This interrogative shows her startling realisation what she has become, she has lost her being and is becoming more like the lurkers the more she lives feral in the dystopian world. The self-questioning also confirms her the instability of the world she subsides in. My style model does a similar concept of using simple integrative sentence to question himself and his…

established friendship with each other outside of the community by phone or in person if they lived in close proximity to each other. Others traveled across the country to visit a sick or dying member. “Friends of the List” sponsored an annual official get together, where members would meet in person. This annual meeting included memorial services for deceased members, hugging, and caring interactions, further enforcing the bond of friendship. Zhang found that these outside, or…
