You know what I hate happens? ( FUCKING EMBARRISSING MOMENTS )
( Its like when your waiting for the Phone )
One Day after eating a hefty late lunch you sit around the house waiting for the phone to ring, this girl was supposed to come over to your house later, When out of no where came the impending inexplicable urge to take a big ass shit. Thinking it over you know you cant afford to miss the phone call, but also when you got to take a shit you got to take a shit. So taking a shit it is. Your on the toilet doing your business, you guess your about half way through when the phone begins to ring. Well your working on a big clunker right there and you didn’t have any time to wipe your ass, You run to the phone as quick as you can in the state your in. You finally finish the phone call and you put the phone down, she said she would be here in 5 minutes and Your like Werd, pimping it. Then you turn around and you see a trail of tiny wet spots of brown SHIT everywhere. You only have 5 minutes to clean it up. Trying to wipe it and get it out of the carpet, it spreads. The bell rings and you get dressed as soon as you can, your ass still remains un-wiped. She enters the house, she sees the stains on the floor and asks what it is, You say its chocolate ice cream, You try to steer her away but you know you couldn’t show your ass to her incase the shit stain outline appears on your pants, she bends over to smell and examine the stain on the floor.... she smells it, she gets an idea of what it is, and you try to steer her away, she tells you to come look at it closer, by then you have no choice, you bend over, she sees the shit stain outlines on your pants and her idea that those might be shit stains on the ground are confirmed........... The Date Is Over

Well The other day before hitting the road to a long drive to vacation I decided to leave on a full stomach so I wouldn’t be hungry on the journey there.
Imagine this: You are home and flipping through the channels on your television one late night. Every channel you flip through, there is a commercial. One commercial is for food, the next commercial is for the latest phone. What do all these advertisements have in common? They want to sell as much as possible to the consumer. But how do these advertisements persuade an average consumer to purchase their product or services? Advertisers use an abundance of techniques to unconsciously motivate consumers to purchase or share information about the advertisement’s goods or services. What language and techniques do three different commercials contain and how do these elements affect an audience? In the end, it is important to remember that commercials
Advertisements are tricky, and often deceiving. The marketing techniques implemented by various companies are meant to attract the consumers to their products, and simply get them to buy the product. There are ten distinctive methods that Jeffery Schrank notes in his article “The Language of Advertising” including the following: weasel claims, “we’re different and unique” claim, endorsements, rhetorical questions, the “so what” claim, the vague claim, the unfinished claim, the “water is wet” claim, the scientific or statistical claim, and the “compliment the consumer” claim. These claims are discussed in the subsequent paragraphs and example advertisements are given.
Television commercials are a persuasive form of communication. One sees tons of images of famous people, breath-taking scenery, fun vacations, and of happy families spending quality time together. But what is this telling a consumer about the product? It tells those who may buy them about their own fears, insecurities, anxieties, and dreams. They do this by constantly reminding them that their lives could be better if they buy this or that. These images are used for psychological purposes and to play off of emotions because we are emotional beings. People respo...
Support system and assurance from family, friends, or peers are very important in a process of an individual to start a new life – who is involved in gangs and crimes because it gives them confidence, trust, and the feeling of someone is giving them an importance to having a second chance and turn their lives around. A quote from the book Tattoos on the Heart, by Reverend Gregory Boyle, an author, priest, and founder of the Homeboys Industries explains a scene where Father Greg was emotional when he overheard Gato (one of the homies at Homeboys Industries) talk shit about what happened to Flaco (one of the homies at Homeboys) last night. “I’m glad that shit happened to Flaco last night. […] I get into Gato’s face and give him a banner headline. …I love you and am down for you, and I love Flaco and am down for him.” (132). Father Greg confronted Gato right away about talking shit about what happened to Flaco last night. He was eventually hurt and deeply emotional of what have Gato commented on Flaco’s situation. Father Greg was furious at the moment; he then told Gato that his feeling for both of them is mutual. At the end of the day, Father Greg loves them both. He was just expressing his feelings and his role between them two. He wants them to know that he 'll be always there for them no
We all know why we tend to eat a lot of food – it’s because we get hungry. Some of us get hungry more often than others, and this directly ties in to how often we are accustomed to eating. In our society, it’s common to have large breakfasts, lunches, and dinners, along with desserts
In the article “Literacy, Discourse, and Linguistics” the main argument of the author is the use of discourse- communication done based on something written or spoken to interact with those who surround you on your everyday life. He also argues that discourse shapes your personality based on who you constantly interact with because it is a subject that cannot be learned but obtained through personal experience. It is important to understand discourse because it is what gives meaning to the activities you do. Using discourse is essential in the interaction with others as well as the addition of meaning to your form of writing, reading, and speech. Across the article I came about with the word literacy which is the ability of a person to
There are four classes of surgical wound types based on the wound’s level of contamination: clean (Class I), clean-contaminated (Class II), contaminated (Class III) and dirty-infected (Class IV) ("Healing and Wound Classification", 2007, p. 26, 28, 30, and 32). Clean (Class I) wounds occur under normal operating room conditions and sterile technique is maintained. Clean-contaminated (Class II) is present when there may have b...
Advertisements and commercials have been an integral part of American history for many years. Since the invention of the newspaper, people in the United States and lots of other countries have been heavily influenced by advertisements. These ingenious tools are used to make people desire to buy a product or contribute to the success of a product in some way. In more modern history advertisements have been implemented into television and other mediums of mass media. Because so many people watch television everyday it is the perfect tool to advertise with. Also, the advertisements must be interesting and have enough appeal to actually captivate the audience’s interest. The car insurance company Geico understands this concept very well. This company literally has an entire arsenal of commercials that tie together in some way and make anyone watching full of laughter. One of the newest commercials this company has devised involves old MacDonald and his spelling ability. This particular advertisement makes use of many effective marketing strategies to try and convince people to buy their car insurance instead of a similar product. This single commercial falls perfectly in line with Geico’s overall marketing strategy that is heavily reliant on releasing groups of iconic commercials with lots of humor and witty banter.
Eating behaviour is a complex behaviour that involves a vast array of factors which has a great impact on the way we choose our meals. Food choice, like an other behaviour, is influenced by several interrelated factors. While hunger seems to drive our ways of food consumption, there are things outside of our own bodies that influence our food choices and the way in which we eat. The way we eat is controlled by and is a reflection of our society and cultures. I explore this idea through a food diary I created over a few weeks and the observations made by several anthropologists that I have studied.
some lunch while I was on the sofa. After lunch was ready I ate all my food
As I arrived at her apartment she didn’t answer the door, I just went in. I walked down the hall way into her bedroom where she had pills and a beer and a list wrote out to make sure this would be her last recipe, a recipe of death. All I could do was yell, “What the hell are you thinking, he is not worth your life!” I started grabbing the pills, putting them back in a container and taking the beer. I hid the pills in my purse and went to get water. I begged with her to drink the water and remind...
Every advertisement is meant to convey a message. Advertisements today have the ability to influence the way people think about a something using creative new ways for us to see things. Usually, advertisements are aiming to affect the decision of the consumer. Advertising has proven to be a puissant force in persuading society to think or do what the advertiser wants. Some may see that as manipulative, but it is ...
When you eat a well-balanced combination of carbohydrates, protein, and healthy fats, you will gain more energy for your body for several hours. An avocado and a DIY turkey with a whole grain bread at lunch could ditch that afternoon laziness and dismiss the urge to use the vending machine. Including this combo of nutrients in your meal and snack everyday can prevent the overeating that leads to feeling too full and
What is power? Power is surround over us, it is everywhere. Powers are invisible, it can be the capacity to do anything you want or even the ability to control people. Considering all the facts of power, it is the key of making you different to others. Similarly, power is something immeasurable that contains massive amount of information of the world, it may be usually define as the symbol of influencing others or leadership. People who have power are likely to share some same characteristic, here are 7 example that they may have compelling, achievable, challenging, aligned, inclusive, clear and distinctive(Ross Dawson, 12 March 2013). Therefore, without any hesitance I would like to define the meaning of power through three question. Do people
It is the start of a new year and I thought I would start a journal chronicling my daily experiences. Tonight we decided to go to the local F.O.P. lodge to a New Years Eve party. We had a pretty good time but what happened later that evening is something that I hope I don’t forget for a long time to come. Still fresh in my mind was the conversation Angela and I had on Christmas night. She was hinting that she wasn’t sure if she wanted to be in a serious relationship this soon after the breakup of her previous one. If that wasn’t hard enough on Christmas she also was to ill to attend my brothers wedding with me in Madison Indiana . To add to all the confusion in my head, on my way home I stopped and got her a rose and a “happy New Years” balloon. She seemed quite touched by the gesture but also visibly troubled by it. I asked her if she was ready to have a good time tonight and she said “I was but now I don’t know.” Now what in the world does that mean! I tried applying all sorts of significant meanings to that statement but in the end I decided to just let it go and let events unfold as they would. Fast forward to 2 minutes before midnight. Angela is an absolute goddess, she is very beautiful and one of the nicest, sweetest woman I have ever met, but she is not one given to affection, especially public affection. Well at 2 minutes till she laid a kiss on me that lasted well after midnight. She absolutely blew me away!! The rest of the night was nice, we went to a couple more clubs but that moment is burned into my memory. Everything else paled in comparison. I don’t know if it is possible but I think I kissed her with my heart as well as my lips. I have heard of your “minds eye”, but tonight I found my “hearts mouth”.................
