A Hug is Nearly a Gun Spelled Backwards

There are many things that makes up happy, but what are the little things in life that always makes us a hug, food, or our friends and family? Or is it our pride for our country ? Getting a hug from the person that makes you happy feels great. I would choose personal relations are more important for humans to bond together as human beings. Personal relations is more important than patriotism in my opinion.

What is patriotism? Well when people hear patriotism they think it about having pride in their country where they were born and raised. Also they need to be a big fan and know everything what happen in their country. However not many people know the history of the United State or can even name all the previous president like I can't even name them even though I'm in school and taking history. They just know what mostly everybody knows. For example they all know the holidays like Thanksgiving, Fourth of July, and other holidays, but most people won't know the real reasons why we have or got those holidays. If we went up to random people and ask them questions about America history they wouldn't really know them.

The things that they have in common like they both have to do with love. Love for something that makes you happy and love for your country. Love can't be different but you can love different things however love will always be the same affection towards something. Yet though one is to get form together as one with bonds and the other is to form everybody as a whole for the pride of the country. Both similar for bonding, but for different purpose.

In conclusion I agree with E.M. Forster's view that personal relations is more important than patriotism. There more personal relations involve in our lives and not a lot of patriotism only once in a while when something big happens.Patriotism is good to show our love for our country, but we can't always really grow it. Personal relations is more meaningful that we want to grow and bloom.

When Logic Fails

1.) Slippery slope - Trump talks about Mexicans says some bad stuff about them, then goes on to saying they are all rapists and murderers. 

2.) Straw man - Both Clinton and Trump put words in each other mouths and arguing making it sound like the other person say it.

3.)Tu quoque - Donald Trump accuses Clinton of support the Iran war, but so did Trump

4.)Post hoc ergo propter hoc - Trump was saying that why didn't Clinton stop isis when they were a 'baby' and now they are big and if she couldn't stop them before what makes her think she can now.

5.)Dicto simpliciter - Trump generalize many races for example Chinese and Mexicans.

6.)complex question - Both try to ask question that made the other admit to something.

7.)Circulus in demonstrando - Trump says we shouldn't vote for Clinton, because she can't control her temper .

8.)Argumentum ad verecundiam - Trump use this when Clinton said he also support the war, he said to ask this person and he will say that Trump was against the war.

9.) Argumentum ad hominem - When Clinton says that Trump is just a racist.

10.)Red herring - Donald Trump did this a lot during the debate not answering the questions and changing the topic to something else.

Mistakes for president

The logical fallacies that I notice during the debate was that both candidates try to put the blame on each other and the other person like hears a gossip about the other person and makes them sound bad. Like they brought up problems issues that need to be solve but didn't really give reliable solutions they just kept on rambling on or calling the other candidate out. They gave reasons and reasons not to vote for the other like talking smack. Trump saw it in a business way where we got money and were powerful and Clinton saw it in a way to help solve problems around the world.

Something Interesting

Well while I was on the internet I came across that Bard Pitt Angelina Jolie are split after 12 years of being together they finally split the reason is unknown but there are a lot of conclusions on we they split but everybody was shocked about the couple splitting. They are both very successful and have kids together and are both are amazing people who are super parents. For more information this just happen recently so there more information just check up

sometimes my mind

Sometimes in my mind I think about the world and how we mess up the world pretty fast. The world have been here longer than us and we humans have been here for a short time and already mess up the world, and I wonder can we recreate the world or at least slow down the process of messing up the world. Like it too late to make the world a better place like we can't restore it. We populate the air and are cutting rain forest and making animals go extinct. What if we humans never made a mess of the world how would it have turned out would we even have evolve into humans? That what sometimes comes in my mind.

Lit analysis #2

The book that I choice is Ender's Game by Orson Scott Card and the the theme of this book is that we sometimes can't tell the difference between game and reality. That it is not very clear to us that they make us think that something is a game but reality it is real and just trick us or the other way around. once we play to many games we get use to it and we think it reality but we just can't separate fantasy from reality.

MY YODA

The idea mentor would be of course a real life alien itself or an ex FBI or area 51 worker who knows tops secrets information about aliens and other life forms out there. Maybe also had contact with aliens and talk with them about other galaxies and planets and other advance technology. Has to have a lot of knowledge on outer space and life forms and also some experience.

BIG QUESTION DISCIPLINE

My big question was are we the only life form are there other life forms out in space? The place I can look is on legit websites that talks about life forms and space like NASA Astrobiology. Or talk to ex workers at Area 51. Also maybe look at statics about outer space radio sounds wave.

I'M HAVING THE TIME OF MY LIFE

I'm having the time of my life is what I would like to say, but I'm not really I don't really get a chance to relax for a moment and think about absolute nothing it something that I would like to do. However with practice I start all the homework that I get later at night, but I don't really finish all my homework so then the next day I get more homework and it just keeps piling up which causes more stress for me. I try to catch up on my other work but still slowly fall behind on other works, I just keep getting homework non-stop that how it feels since basically I'm doing homework everyday, so I'm not really having the time of my life.

BAD WORDS

What makes a word bad? Well for me is how the person is using the word and their intentions. Some people cuss but not really for bad intentions for example if you stump your toes on a corner table you just automatically let a cuss word out, but in our generation is something normal to say. Good words help people get together along and have a good relationship and people understand each other, but bad words cause people to fight and bitter with each other, because when you get cuss at you automatically get offend, which doesn't solve the problem it just makes it worse. It appropriate to use euphemism when talking about a sensitive subject or not wanting to hurt someones feelings. It becomes phony when someone doesn't mean it and it becomes confusing when they are being sarcastic.

literature analysis questions #1

The book I chose to read was Cyrano de Bergerac by Edmond Rostand it about a poet and a soldier who both fall in love with the same woman. However Cyrano (poet) is to scared to tell her he loves her because of his huge nose he is insecure about it and Christian (soldier) is handsome but can't express his feelings towards her. So he ask Cyrano for help and Cyrano  lends him a hand he writes letters for him to the woman(Roxane) and teaches him how to write and talk about poetry and Christian helps him how to look good. They become one person then they are sent to war, but before they leave Christian marry Roxane and she falls in love with his words not from looks. During the war Christian dies but Cyrano still sends letters and finally stops and Roxane is sadly when she finds out that Christian dies. Later she figures out that it was Cyrano that wrote to her so she was in love with Cyrano words, but it too late, because a tragedy strikes and Cyrano dies. The theme of the story is that appearances aren't everything you can't judge someone from the way they look. Probably wakes up late to write his plays and to get his show ready from the book the character is always out late and sleeps in a lot. Probably drank tea, because he was from France and he also maybe exercise and mediate since he probably wouldn't do yoga. He was a man so sounds about right that he would do those things and in the book the character was a poet so like to think and want peace and quiet. There is literary techniques use in the book like personification how he describes his nose like an elephant nose. Also allusion are use how they compare themselves to Greek myth. Also foreshadowing some parts on what will happen. it help me better understand the story and made it fun to read making me enjoy and to keep on reading the story.

Satire Guns are so darn fun

Guns are so darn fun

Dear world

Guns are so fun they help make the world a better place. Having a collection of guns and being able to sell them on the black market making “good” money making a living out of it. Guns should be sold at liquor stores to anyone and might as well throw in a free grenade. Guns don’t cause violence they protect us from violence duhh everybody knows that it common sense. Kids even deserve to own guns to be safe when walking from school. If a professor can own a gun who has a doctoral degree which is the highest degree to be able to teach and accidentally shoot himself it okay, because he has a doctoral degree. Now most serial killers don’t use guns to kill their victim they use knives or other sharp objects that are easily accessible and that basic fact serial killer 101. So shouldn’t we make guns easily accessible to protect us from serial killers. Another example would be war in a war we use guns not swords so we evolve we are more advance. So guns help shape and revolutionize the world that a good thing we benefit from it. On July the Fourth instead of selling fireworks we should have a special on guns. High school students should carry a gun instead of a tablet and carry them in their backpack.

Sincerely, from outer space aliens

P.s we have been watching the human race for a while now and cause some historical events that affect the world and our plan is to convince the humans to buy guns and to destroy themselves and here a little secret we invented guns.
