An important piece to Parker and Stones art is their ability to use outrage culture, particularly through vulgarity. South Park uses vulgarity as a way to point out facets of reality, one in which many do not wish to acknowledge (Ravenwood, 1999). They use parodies coupled with vulgarity to make the audience uncomfortable, and generate a response.

Despite that, the extreme exaggerations and mockery engaged in the show distances the reality South Park throws in the viewers face, allowing for the social phenomena to be taken as a joke.

Imagine turning on the morning Fox News only to see there was another terrorist attack somewhere in the world. Imagine working for the government as a person who reads individual’s emails, texts, or listens in on their phone calls, only to realize the job was to spy on innocent citizens. What if people were told they were being watched “to prevent another terrorist attack,” only to understand the government did not see the past few coming, such as the “Boston Marathon Bombing or the New York Times Square Bombing”(For the Record)? These events lead up to the government making individuals give up their freedom because they are being spied on, similar to the ones described in George Orwell’s book, 1984. Characters such as Winston and Julia lived
Hi Folks, How’s your week been. I will admit, I have been quite lazy and have not done a blog the past few weeks. Work and life can certainly get in the way and can drain a person’s essence and willpower. Frankly, people need to recharge their batteries and try an escape the monotony. Hence, I will be taking a trip to a couple of fairs in Minnesota in the coming days.
Using Satire to Convict Social Media Social media has inspired a stronger set of issues in the lives of the current youth, according to Shannon Purtle in “Why Social Media Should Be Left Alone”, specifically issues dealing with authenticity. In a time when social media is on the rise, Purtle addresses the lacking of real connections and endangerments surrounding magnified typical teenage issues caused by those programs within the lives of young Americans.

College Relationships My concerns about college dating is that if I start to date a person and everyone knows that means most guys wont want to talk to me since I am “off the market”. Then again if I was single and they were talking to me I don’t know their motives for doing so. I see it as if I am exclusively dating someone I won’t make as many friends right off the bat.

Lucretius On the Nature of the Universe “On the Nature of the Universe” is a very long poem written by Lucretius in which he portrays the reality of man in a godless universe and in a way tries to make men be fearless of death. One of his principals is “that nothing ever by divine power comes from nothing,” because according to him in his philosophy as a custom they must define the matter therefore “all things are made of atoms”, he defends the idea that the world and everything contained in it is pure matter ruled by mechanistic laws which control the movements of the atoms.

People want to get married because they are ready to take the relationship to a higher level of responsibility and commitment. The satirical argument made throughout the video is that one’s freedom is being compromised and ties, especially with the family are ruined once marriage gets in the picture.
