The music industry is a without a doubt a battlefield for artists. Not only do music artists have to compete with each other, but they often have to compete with themselves as well. You may be familiar with Miley Cyrus’ recent overnight transformation from cutesy Hannah Montana…

belief system of society. Enthusiasts of American Sniper will adamantly reject the idea that the film has any underlying political message, and implying that it’s anything similar to a propaganda is probably the quickest way to get yourself jumped by rednecks. Clint Eastwood himself asserted that his work “certainly has nothing to do with any [political] parties or anything” (Lussier). But for a movie that’s not about politics, it sure does have a lot of politics in it; when I asked viewers of…

I made the call to Jake so he could get us on the four-wheeler and take us down there since Katie’s car couldn’t make it. At the end of rough ride down a hill overran by tree branches, I see what I always see upon arriving at Brad’s. All of the redneck boys from schools all around the county have their trucks pulled down with coolers in their tailgates, playing music. I walk over to the fire and ask my “party friends” how they have been and then reach to grab my first beer, and lie, of the…

excited. She goes over to take his order, red wine, since they didn’t have any synthetic blood. The Rattray’s or the “rats,” as Sookie calls them go sit with the vampire. The rats come to the bar every evening. They are poor, and considered to be rednecks. Sookie goes over to the table to check on him, and begins to read the rats mind. They are vampire drainers, and are planning to take all of the vampires blood, and leave him to be dead. By the time she’s heading back to the table, she sees…

the south. The stereotype is them being overweight. They are characterized the most out of all. They fart, spit, and eat butter with everything. They also wrestle, hunt, and do pageant shows. The whole family do disgusting things. This is what a redneck family would be. This is how the author stereotype. Stereotype that people from down south are overweight and disgusting. I totally disagree with his views. This is an example of pathos. The Here Comes Honey Boo Boo stereotype is sad. This is a…

In that view, the church replaces — or as they would say — “fulfills” — Israel. There is no further national program for Israel nor is there a future earthly kingdom lasting for 1000 years with Christ ruling from Jerusalem. This millennial (which means 1000 years) view is called Amillennialism (meaning: no literal millennium). I reject that view in favor of what’s called Premillennialism which basically says that Christ will return before the millennium to set up His 1000-year kingdom on earth.…
