Karaoke Satire
Karaoke is an amazingly fun and empowering thing to do, yet it’s also one of the most terrifying things to actually get yourself to do. It should actually be called “Scareyoke”.

When I ask why people don’t want to get up and sing, the answer is always the same, and it surprised me. It’s never “I get stage fright”. Instead, it’s always, “I have a terrible singing voice”.

    The Wonder Years Satire

    Many shows struggle to capture the feeling of nostalgia and wonder that the The Wonder Years expertly tackled throughout nearly its entire run. The show follows it’s main character Kevin Arnold and to a lesser extent his friends Winnie and Paul as they go through Junior High and High School. The show starts in the year 1968 where the pilot introduces the audience to the Arnold family, a 1960s Nuclear family reminiscent of familiar sitcom families like the Cleavers (of Leave it to Beaver fame.) Like those shows, The Wonder Years focuses on its youngest cast members but unlike those shows, The Wonder Years…

    Rewarding Mediocrity Satire

    Satire Of The Onion

    To the informed reader, it is known that the Onion is a news website in which satirical articles are written about local and national events, however, this satire can sometimes be missed due to the nature of the article and its presentation of information. Due to how the article is written in the fashion of an actual news article it creates the appearance of actual news and could be seen as such if the satire is missed. With the articles use of quotations and the appearance of fact it gives the tone of that of an actual news article about the issue. For example, the piece uses quotations from people supposedly working with Poland Springs in order to give a basis to the articles information. The way these quotations are placed among the article…

    Procrastinate Satire

    In some ways that I procrastinate is doing the dishes or doing my homework or doing chores, pretty much anything that involves me getting up and doing something. I believe I procrastinate like once in awhile, for an example my mom asked me to do the dishes at 3:00 in the afternoon I would do it around 3:10, it may seem like I am lazy but i really am not, I mean what teenager wants to wash the dishes. the only time I don’t procrastinate is when I want something, i’m pretty sure every teenager does this. Like take me for an example, my best friend in the whole wide world’s birthday is coming up and she asked my best friends and me if we can go so for that being I don’t hesitate on washing the dishes or vacuuming or doing my homework - nope - I would do what every average teen would do ..

    Singing Satire

    Its first period and I’m not quite awake yet. It’s too early for conversation and too early to think. As my classroom fills up all the girls greet me because we all know each other in this class. We've become like a little family of crazy giggling girls, and I’m like the Soprano I section leader here in the Women’s Honor Choir as well as the only senior. The bell rings and we get to singing, and something magical happens- well, “magical” probably wasn't the best word to use since there wasn't any sorcery at work here. The better word would be something like “neurological”. Yes, something neurological happens and it’s quite simple really- I wake up. Not only do I wake…

This newfound insight has pushed me to write to you today. Newfound, I say that with intent. I haven't learned this until now, 16 years into my existence.

    If you are depressed, and no medicines are working for you, alcohol just might be the way out. If you need something to do, getting drunk just might be the solution. Bored?

    Satire On Homelessness

    Today, you could attest to saying that times have been rough here in America. With an increase in gas and food prices, due to two major hurricanes (Hurricane Harvey in Houston, Texas and Hurricane Irma in the State of Florida), the unemployment rate is still at a steady rise, and family’s homes are still being foreclosed. It is particular hard to say that homelessness is decreasing. Although the resulting numbers from the 2008 National Count of homelessness that is done every year in January, showed that there was a 12% decrease in homeless people on the streets and shelters from 2005-2007 and a 30% decrease in chronic homelessness in 2005. The moral controversy of this issue is to ask, what can we do to physical decrease the number of people on the streets and in…
