Monsters

Who or what do I consider to be a monster in this society. I consider cancer ,guns ,and bullying as monsters in this society. Why do i think they are monsters, I think cancer,guns,and bullying are monsters because they take away innocent people lives away.Who is the monsters slayer and why.The monster slayer is god because he can control what people think in thier mind. I am also the monster slayer because i can make a difference about people getting bullied. Cancer would stay the monster because anybody can get cancer thier is no way it can be terminated.
Cancer is the uncontrolled growth or abnormal cells in the body. Cancer will be the monster because it kills people. It takes innocent children away, Breast cancer takes beautuful women and men away also. Cancer is a class of diseases characterized by out of control cell growth. Cancer harms the body when damaged cells divide uncontrollably for lumps or masses of tissue called tumors. I think cancer will always be the monster to me.
Guns can also be a monster because a bullet dosen't have a name on it, it can take any person life away in a heart beat. Guns dosen't kill people, people kill people. The people controlling the guns are monster in should be put away or defeated. Like i always said guns dont kill people, people kill the people. This argument should be cease it is taking so many people lives away.
Bullying is my last reason why it is a monster because being bullied is not nice it hurt people or kids etc, thats why kids take thier own life away.They think there's no one else to help them in this world. Bullying is when someone or a group of people who feel helpless to respond. Bullying can continue over time, it is often hidden from adults and will probably continue if no action is taken. Bullying isn't single episodes of social rejection or dislike,

    Green Monster

    Short stories are always much more difficult to review compared to novels, simply because the author uses so many metaphors and symbols within. Usually the audience reads it, and then analyzes it as a whole. In “The Little Green Monster” Haruki Murakami tells a story about a strange green monster that digs it way out from under the soil to ask the heroine to marry him. She responds in a very repulsed way stating that “It is rude and presumptuous” along with “What a rude little creature you are to come seeking my love!” (153), even though the little monster meant her no harm. The heroine then starts to kill the monster (who can read her mind) with her evil thoughts, until there is nothing left. Murakami uses symbolism, imagery, metaphors and little figurative language to prove that society as a whole tends to reject and dislike anything that is different or unfamiliar.…

    In my opinion, monster is a general designation of groups nonhuman organisms. Almost of monsters have different characteristic than human being, such as tail, buck teeth,and sharp claws. Because those inevitable origin, it can be seen monsters are inborned. Most of them called monster because they are the antithesis of human’s life, human’s benefit, or human’s wish. Some of them utilize weakness of humanity to kill people or plunder valuable things. Such as vampire, dragon, Different bad person who enjoyed cruelty, most of monsters kill humans for their lives or kill humans without reason. For some reasons, they might can’t control themselves live without human’s blood or can’t fling away any organism who intruded.

    Throughout Mary Shelley’s novel, Frankenstein, readers are introduced to many different types of heroes. In the beginning, the monster is introduced as one of the main heroes in Shelley’s Novel, who is considered a “Byronic” hero due to his arrogant personality and exile status. The monster wants to help people, but he is shunned by the rest of society, so he never gets the chance to prove himself worthy of being a hero. We also can describe Elizabeth as a kind of “Everyman” hero due to her loving and caring personality when her fiancé is away and her “mother” was dying of an illness that was caused by Elizabeth’s scarlet fever. Elizabeth took care of everyone and their feelings. Since we know there are heroes in the story, who is the villain?…

    Kody Scott, also known as “Monster” for his viciousness in beating of a man and further crimes, forms a realistic and brutal picture of gang violence in America. Throughout his story, Scott views his gang participation as the only viable means of survival. Killing is done through the necessity to promote oneself in order to become an O.G., or Original Gangster, the pinnacle of gang member status and achievement. The urge to become an O.G. seems to be paramount in Scott's eyes, and he outlines his plan: first he must build his reputation, then his influence as part of his set, and finally as a “promoter” of the Crips (Shakur, 1993, pp. 14-15). By age eleven Scott's sole desire is to become a gang member of his local set, the Eight Trays. He disregards education, at one point stating how he paid no attention to his middle school teacher, focusing only on the streets and his “homeboys” as source of lifestyle and adventure (Shakur, 1993, pp. 3-4). He clearly reaches his goal, putting the entirety of his mental and physical being into being a gangster, even though it leads him to a life wreaked by violence and prison sentences.…

    All monsters have that one thing that sets them apart from the rest whether it’s the notorious big foot and his big foot, Michael Myers and his huge kitchen knife, or even werewolves and the fact that they transform when a full moon is out. Every monster is unique and different, but in the book Monsters there are seven theses and one thesis stood out. Theses number six in the book Monsters states that “Fear of the monster is really a kind of desire.” That thesis is true when it comes to a certain fictional monster by the name of Freddy Krueger.…

    While this point of view presents many valid arguments, it is limited to doing so by the simple physical meaning by which we classify something as being a “monster”. Much of this argument that the creature is the obvious choice in the “who is more monstrous” debate is based on the physical features of the creature. The label of monster that our society has continued to use for the initial creation of the word is “an imaginary creature that is typically large, ugly, and frightening”. The creature that Dr. Frankenstein created, if compared to this definition, would indeed be classified as a monster. While the creature does meet the requirements of what we know as a typical monster; large, ugly, and frightening, it is when we look deeper into the intellectual side of this so called “monster” that things begin to change. The monster that Victor Frankenstein initially created is only monstrous in the physical sense of the word. In more ways than one the monster is more humanlike that some would like to admit. It has feelings and emotions, desires and dreams, and if we were to ignore its physical appearance all together; it would be a normal human in every sense of the word. Much of the themes in Frankenstein play to this idea; this idea that something or someone can be labeled a monster simply because of their outward physical appearance. What is quite frightening about this fact is that if we were to rewrite the story of Frankenstein and replace the creature that Victor created by a human being, we as a society would not be labeling it as a monster, but instead would be labeled as a…

The creature is a person of unnatural or extreme ugliness, deformity, wickedness, or cruelty. Victor is one who deviates from normal or acceptable behavior or character.

    On Monsters

    Many people perceive monsters as anything grotesque or not looking like the norm. In the book On Monsters, written by Asma, he mentions an array of monsters. He states, “One aspect of the monster concept seems to be the breakdown of intelligibility. An action or a person or a thing is monstrous when it can’t be processed by our rationality, and also when we cannot readily relate to the emotional range involved” (Asma 10). Because our perception is blinded by appearance, we fail to see the truth behind a monster –their actions. Although people define a monster by their appearance, it’s their actions that give them their identity.…

    Everyone around me influences how I act, how I dress, and what I believe in. When my peers have such an extensive effect on me it’s hard not to succumb to being like everyone but myself. I often catch myself looking at the way other people do things and wishing that I could be just like them. I catch myself wishing I could dress like another girl or wishing I could have handwriting just like someone else or even wishing I could have the same attitude as someone else. I spend a great amount of time desiring to be like someone else that I think is perfect when I know I should spend that time being myself and embracing the person that I am.…

    Man or Monster

    According to Wikipedia, “The English idiom [don’t judge a book by its cover] is a metaphorical phrase which means you shouldn’t prejudge the worth of someone or something, by its outward appearance alone” (Don’t judge a book by its cover 1). Just like an old ragged book that one turns the pages to reveal the knowledge or characters within, the same goes for people. It is what is within the person that counts. In “The Hunchback of Notre Dame” Clopin, a gypsy, introduces the story as, “It’s a tale, a tale of a man and a monster” (Scripps). Prejudgment of a person can lead to false identity as seen in the characters of Quasimodo and Frollo. Although Quasi appears as a deformed monster, he is really a caring man.…
