Hyperreality

Hyperreality has gotten its hold on today's society more than ever. One example of this is the television series of ER or Grey's Anatomy where everything is always intense in the hospital and the doctors are always ready to spring into action. In these TV series the patients are almost always saved no matter how bad things look or how impossible it is for them to survive in reality. It's really not like that at all in today's hospitals of the world. It's not intense all the time, actually they're usually very boring and smell hecka funky. And in reality not all the patients live ok, let's face it people die all the time in hospitals. One other example of hyperreality is when it comes to Axe commercials. Like when some dude sprays on some Axe and then throngs of scantly clad hott women pounce of him. Like no, that does not happen in reality at all. When was the last time you saw this happen? Never? That's what I thought.

happy endings

alrite, def. some metafiction going on at the end. It starts reffering back to the reader, not to mention it seems like there was a plot inside a plot inside a plot. But everything all leads to death which is where everyone will end up.

jack sparrow

alright so Cpt. Jack Sparrow is postmodern mostly cuz he doesnt give a crap about anything. He decides his own right and wrongs. Everything is relative to him. I mean he's a pretty ownage pirate.

ANTZ

alright yea this is pretty late, buti kinda need some credit for doing this so here it goes. For this assignment thing i talked to the register person at taco bell. I've seen her there before and kinda tried to avoid talking to her cuz ppl with down syndrome or mental things kinda make me feel uncomfortable. But i guess it was nice to chat with her even for like 2 minutes and kinda step outside of my box and stop living so boring i guess.
