Fun fact, sea otters have pockets.
There are a lot of different topics that can fill a page or cause a debate. Some of these topics came to my mind when thinking about what I should write about video games as an art form, why modernists believe that understands only makes you unhappier, the last lines of Winesburg, Ohio, and feminism. Well, video games as an art form would require examples, and focus to craft an argument. POCKETS!! Enough said. I was afraid to discus disillusionment because the answer might not be satisfactory. Discussing Winesburg didn't actually come to my mind, having a list of there is general writing practice and that is unacceptable. If saying the wrong thing gets you not only backlash but whiplash as well its a topic I'm going to avoid, feminism. Sea otters having pockets seemed as good as any other topic to write about. After all some where in the world a child is visiting an a aquarium and is absolutely fascinated my the sea otters. This experience will gradually drift out of the young boys mind, life will go on and it will take the boy by the ear. In two years after he will have failed a test he will happen to sea picture of a sea otter and that will make his day. While a general consensus will agree that Winesburg and disillusionment are worth more study and thought than sea otters this boy may but probably wont exist in the future values sea otters more. The fact that is created him for the sole purpose of valuing sea otters more than Winesburg, Ohio is not important. In the past five seconds this boy has come to represent the diversity of the human experience for me, because that boy is different in his interests, and as people our interests are different from the boy's. People must be diverse. A=B, B=C so A=C.I know this logic is faulty, and if i was writing about disillusionment that might bother me. The point is (No way, there is a reason for the madness!) i have wanted to write something worth reading, something of weight, something that is worth the space on a page, but knowing that importance is subjective. Its are to write about something the is "important" without sounding cliche, yet the consensus exists for a reason. While this does keep writing interesting it keeps me set up for failure, there is no proper way to do things. So I accept this failure and wrap my writing in humor knowing with pride that at least my thoughts are my own.
Like a sea otter *insert vague connection about a sea otters over coming adversity, call it symbolism*
There are a lot of different topics that can fill a comment. Some of these topics are seemingly copied from the blog you have written. Funny how that works, huh? Anyway, with Winesburg off the minds of us English scholars for the duration of our transition between major novels; we have time to reflect on the bigger things in life, like otters. Feminism is a good topic to discuss, as well as any other social advocacy that would be more important in the terms of debate, but otters are pretty important, I would say. The first time I saw an otter was near a beach in Maine. There were three of them, two adults and an adolescent. At this time, I did not know what an “adolescent” meant, but the tour guide was more than happy to explain a term that I would eventually grow into. Anyway, the otters were covered in seaweed and laying on their backs, chilling out in the water in a manner that I became incredibly jealous. Would life be best as an otter? Could you imagine any otter life? Nah.
ReplyDeleteThere are a lot of topics I could comment on here. I could talk about something academic. I could make some funny puns. Instead, however, I'm just going to say this...
ReplyDeleteFreaking OTTERS have pockets, yet I still can't fit more than 2 pieces of lint and a penny into the minuscule little pouches in my woman's jeans?!
