Snickers

entertainer talking straightforwardly to the crowd in an unconstrained way. In stand-up comedy, the feedback of the audience is immediate and essential for the comedian’s performance. The gathering expects an exceptional act and a constant flow of snickers, and the entertainer is constantly under pressure to perform. Stand-up, in the structure it is known today, is an emphatically American creation, with its roots retreating back to the mid-1800s. Up until that time comedy was the restrictive…

“Easy-out!” I hear snickers from the opposing team, while my own team holds their breath. The pitcher rolls the ball towards my eight-year-old self, pity in their eyes. It skids towards me, and I kick it away, pathetically slowly. Just as they predicted, I am out. For the rest of the summer camp, I avoided all the kickball games in shame. For years afterward, I tried to avoid competition and conflict of any sort. I stayed away from card and board games, and when my classmates shrieked with…

There are two very contrasting languages that I associate myself with. My native language is Haitian Creole, a language that arose among a nation of people that had a large impact on history. When I spoke my native language, I thought nothing of it, it held very little to no significance to me, until I lost it. My second language, English, is detrimental to my success in this world. I had to work hard to learn it, understand it and an even greater deal of difficulty having to speak it. Often…

poem investigates the Injustices of bigotry through the eyes of a black servant working for a white family. He discloses to us that he is sent to the kitchen when the organization comes. Each time he is sent away, rather than exhibiting outrage, he snickers, this shows the speaker is a solid character with self-balance. Hughes utilizes a metaphor when he says "tomorrow" (line 8). Hughes is showing that "tomorrow' infers what's to come. He has confidence that over the span of time, everybody will…

My vision of an absolutely perfect day takes place in New York, NY. This day would be a breezy, crisp fall day. It starts off by waking, and getting ready for the exciting day ahead of me. I would take the subway to my rehearsals for “Phantom of the Opera” on Broadway. After I get out of my rehearsal for lunch break, I would go to Tony’s Di Napoli Italian Restaurant. My meal would be composed of scrumptious mushroom ravioli for my entrée, and cherry tartufo for dessert. Subsequently, I would…

wordplay. It’s not that it’s off by a bit, your off by the distance of the sun. And think about Melvin again. He’s shown to be “one of the smallest guys above midget status”, which is another hyperbole ( Peck 344 ). These big exaggerations will cause snickers and giggles from the audience as they think about the real life…

player piano. In the first and second line, there is a lot of assonance (the repetition of sound in a vowel) and consonance (reassurance of similar sound) that are represented. In line one, the sound of ‘’ick” in the words, “stick”, “click”, and “snicker” demonstrate in the readers mind the type of music it is playing over and over again in a sharp and aggressive way, while hearing the repetition of a clicking…

if you cannot say anything nice, then do not say anything at all. This applies to many circumstances and many different people. A young girl sits with her drawing book open; sketching the sky and it's many inhabitants. A group of boys walk by and snicker at her scrambled lines and splashes of color. Suddenly the girl becomes embarrassed and begins to question her artistic abilities. Another girl skips right up to the girl and praises her fluffy clouds and red robins. A weight falls off the…

“Lions and tigers and bears! Oh my!” (The Wizard of Oz). The Wizard of Oz was one of the many great things to come out of the 1930s. Even through the great depression, humanity still evolved and brought new cultures and inventions throughout the 1930s. Although hard times plagued the people, that didn’t stop them from living their lives. The new inventions and rich culture defined this era. The sources of entertainment, fashion, and inventions kept people going in the rough times of the…
