Plastic Hair Persuasive Speech
The host had plastic hair. At least it looked like it. It was so perfectly sculpted and shaped it would be difficult to think how this man, standing here with suit and microphone, camera pointed at him, could have anything on his head but a blob of jet black plastic, shaped to look like some snazzy hairstyle. Like new plastic, straight out of the box.
In fact, everything around was new. New buildings, new technology, new people-all the products of a new government. I love our government! You can’t not love our government. They fixed America-I don’t know how, or why it needed fixing, but that’s what everyone says. Isn’t that wonderful? I think it is. No one knows who runs things now. See, it’s better that way. By not knowing, we don’t have

She was able to actually convince me for a few seconds that she wanted to stay in that dirty village." "I think the fire was a nice touch. It added a sense of urgency to the situation, like the village was on fire, they had to get out of there, quick!"
The third season of "Civilized!" was a smash hit. It consisted of a full thirteen weeks of inserting a man, named Daniel, into normal society. They gave him a drug problem, and he died from an overdose four years later.
The fourth season had a woman, named Erica, who they released after a quick ten weeks out onto the streets to be a prostituted. She died after being severely beaten by one of her customers.
The fifth season was a breakthrough event; they chose to civilize a couple and marry them. Their names were Donny and Janet, and they bought guns after their fourteen week run on television and killed thirty people on live television before they were shot down by the police.
For years and years to come, television was bringing people nobody knew out from the background, and placing them in the limelight. This was a dream for some, but a reality for those that were unsuspecting. Twenty years from the first episode of "Civilized!", one troubled young man asked a

    Ehrenrichs Tv Essay

    • 570 Words
    • 3 Pages

    “So why do we keep on watching [Television]?” challenges Barbara Ehrenreich in, The Worst Years of Our Lives. Ehrenreich alleges that television “has transformed the American people into root vegetables” (2-3). Television as we know it is a way to escape the troubles of the real world and enter into a sense of fantasy. People sit for hours watching television which is harmful and may brainwash people to believe what they are told. Television was never invented to exemplify the real world; it was merely a distraction in the path of our trajectory. However Ehrenreich classifies modern Americans as couch potatoes simply because they do not accomplish anything that is displayed on television. I disagree with Ehrenreich’s assertions about television because she assumes everything portrayed in television is danger and thrills. Much of what is advertised on television is informative and important in society.…

    Going out tonight? For most women this means getting in front of a mirror with a bundle of cosmetics and spending hours in front of a mirror getting your makeup to look perfect. Why should we wear makeup? Why should we dress presentable? Why should we do our hair? It all comes down to your personal appearance. Why is this important? You can tell a lot about a person on how they carry themselves and the way they look. So, when you see that a women or male takes the time to brush their hair, put a pinch of blush on their cheeks and swipes some mascara on their eyelashes, is because they care how they look and they want you to care about it also.…

    While the series was entertaining the portrayal of the law in American life was inaccurate. The Gallagher family broke many laws got brief interventions and then continued to break the law. If this was a reality television show the law enforcement would be widely present and the consequences to the law when it would be broken would be widely present. Since this series main goal was entertainment the focus of the series was not law in American life. The only lesson that could be extracted from this series is that the law is always present, whether we follow it is up to us and as Americans we have to deal with the…

Before the president in the show became president, he was running for office and the other main characters knew he was going to lose so they rigged the ballot box by fiercely making the group of people make a computer program vote for him. Another thing is that everyone with power by politics use’s their power for wrong. The main body guard orders a special agent to kill people because he doesn’t want the U.S. people to know whatever he wants to hide. The mistress threatens people to insure the satiety of the president and to keep her and his secret really secret. The wife of the president blackmails him to become the senator. Overall, this show has a lot of Interpersonal violence as well as construction perspective because there is a lot of labeling as to who is who and even though people are getting blackmailed or even killed, a lot of the time the characters have some…

    The plot of the show is two brothers of which the young one, Michael Scofield, gets himself thrown in jail to break his older brother, Lincoln Burrows, out who is sentenced to death for a crime he didn’t commit. With just that happening in the show it’s amazing. People escaping you can see happening, but getting thrown in jail to break someone else out is interesting. Also what got my attention is how Michael planned the escape. Besides being a genius, he tattooed the prisons blueprints and needed information on how to stay out on his body. There was never a boring episode, since day one in prison the escape started he just needed to get the people necessary to escape from the prison like: the guy with the money, the guy with the transportation, and finally he needed his cell mate to agree. Finally, the relationship between both of the brothers. It isn’t your typical love story between brothers. They weren’t in each other’s life after they turned 18. And for Michael to break Lincoln out even after they lost touch of each other and Michael never showed any understanding of why Lincoln is a bum. It’s interesting that he still risked his entire career and life for this escape.…
