David Carr’s essay reflects very well on the title of his essay, “Keep Your Thumbs Still When I am talking to you”. Carr gives examples that relate to personal examples of how people today are constantly on their phones. By people always being on their phones it has become an act or rudeness towards other people from whom you were speaking to. Instead of keeping your elbows off of the table we will now be told to keep our thumbs still. In addition, similar to my experience at Professor Ataman’s lecture, David Carr discusses his experience at the South by Southwest Interactive Conference, at the conference he found that all the people had some sort of device with a screen that their eyes were attached too.

In the articles,"Posture Affects Standing and Not Just the Physical Kind" by Jane E.Brody and in,"Your iPhone is Ruining Your Posture-and Your Mood ' by Amy Cuddy, both Cuddy and Brody give valid able arguments on everyday things we do that can affect our health. I think that both arguments are well thought out and written to the best of the authors literate skills. Brody 's argument is based off of how posture affects your mood in everyday life. Then there 's Cuddy who believes that it 's technology that makes us hunch. Both of these are arguments that have to do with one thing and that is how you feel and how hunching affects your lifestyle.

The first time I read The Death of John, I immediately recognized there were many archetypes within the words of the short story. An archetype is a typical character, an action or a situation that seems to represent such universal patterns of human nature. However, the short story does not limit itself to only one of these. The story begins with a conversation between a doctor and a nurse in an Army hospital.

Doctors of the 19th century thought they were above everyone else because of their education and had a tendency to disregard the patient’s suggestions. Jacobus asserts in his work that “The hysteria that is femininity must be repressed in the interests of a masculinist psychoanalytic theory; the uncanny that is narrative must be repressed in order to sustain a realist view of fiction” (qtd. in E. Showalter 30). As the subject of male doctors’ authority, 35 years of feminist criticism had turned the interpretation of the story’s narrator into a victim of patriarchal control. In “The Yellow Wallpaper,” John says, “you really are better, dear, whether you can see it or not. I am a doctor, dear, and I know” (Gilman 236).

TEchnology is a big issue in today’s society, because We used technology when we really shouldn’t be.

When I read this article i notice that in almost every paragraph she restates her argument, I believe it 's because she wants her reader to fully understand what she 's really trying to say. In my opinion it 's a very clever way to keep the reader know what she is talking. In her articles she states "Poor posture can have ill effect that radiate throughout the body, causing back and neck pain, muscle fatigue, breathing limitations, arthritic joints, digestive problems and mood disturbance. " what she means by all this is posture is affecting us in many ways we didn 't think it can. In her article she includes counter arguments for example " Although early

In Nicholas Carr’s article, “How Smartphones Hijack Our Minds” (November 10, 2017) Carr discusses the implications of allowing our smartphones to have such a huge effect on our lives. Smartphones serve many purposes, and have created massive societal effects throughout the world despite being introduced roughly only two decades ago. One can converse with anyone in the world at any given moment, they can watch any television show they want, and they can receive alerts so they no longer have to put effort into remembering things themselves. However, with so much control over people’s own lives, one begins to wonder about the negative consequences of the smartphones themselves.

Uniqueness amongst each other makes us Human. In Closer this uniqueness is described as, “… the alien, the unknowable, the mysterious, the opaque” (Greg Egan, 1990). Technology takes that away from us by destroying the idea of the mysterious nature of our souls. It unifies us and makes us all look the same, talk the same and worse, think the same. Moreover this constant need to be the same drives us to loneliness and incompetence.
