Break-Up Letter
Dear Who ever,
You probably saw this coming after the way you treated me. After everything I have done for you. How could you do this to me? Whenever you needed me I was there. Why couldn't you be there for me? Just once? You only ever cared about yourself. You made me feel like a cookie that just got run over by a garbage truck. Have my feelings meant nothing to you? You have always treated me like a back seat to all your other friends. I should have listened to my gut, way back when. Let me tell you something...I. Am. Not. A. Back. Up. Option! I deserve someone who will be there, who will care, who will treat me like I matter. Because I do! I am just better off without you anyway. Don't think you can come crawling back to me when you realize what a mistake you made. I don't give second changes. I warned you in the beginning that you get one chance. I don't need extra drama in my life. My family is enough. Sometimes I sit back and think to myself why did I even try? I should have just listened to my gut and not talked to you. I knew you were trouble, unfortunately for me I found out how much trouble the hard way. I would really like for you to never talk to me or look my way again.
- A Very Ticked off Girl
Dear caffeine,
For years you have kept me up at night and throughout the day when I needed it the most. Whenever I was tried you where there. What happened to us? One day I turned around and you were helping many other people. I watched you charge people a fortune just so you could help them stay awake. You never used to be so much, what happened? Without you I am weak. Now I am forced to sleep at night because I know you are not going to be there in the morning to make sure I am up and moving. We had a good run but now I know we can no longer be friends. You have learned that I have nothing to offer you. I can see now that you have moved on to bigger and better things. I am finally letting you go for good. You no longer need to feel sorry for leaving me behind. I have finally found a new way to keep my self up. A better stronger version of you. Expresso and I will have a good live together. I hope you have fun with other of those other people you make feel alive. Good bye coffee.

When I think of Revenge, I think of getting back at someone
who has done me wrong. Revenge is in almost every TV show you watch. Good Luck Charlie,
Reba, Wizards of Waverly place, Pretty Little Liars, and more.
Hamlet's father was murdered and Hamlet is now seeking revenge. I personally think that Hamlet is very bad at revenge. It is taking him forever to kill his uncle. At least in Pretty Little Liars "A" gets right down to business. Hamlet likes to drag things out. I believe that revenge should be somewhat of a quick thing. No longer than a week but no shorter then thirty minutes to get revenge.
Taylor Swift Wrote a song called better the revenge-
"Now go stand in the cornerAnd think about what you didHa, time for a little revenge
The story starts when it was hot and it was summerAnd I had it all, I had him right there where I wanted himShe came along, got him alone, and let's hear the applauseShe took him faster than you can say sabotage
I never saw it coming, wouldn't have suspected itI underestimated just who I was dealing withShe had to know the pain was beating on me like a drumShe underestimated just who she was stealing from
She's not a saint, and she's not what you thinkShe's an actress, whoaShe's better known for the things that she doesOn the mattress, whoa
Soon she's gonna find stealing other people's toysOn the playground won't make you many friendsShe should keep in mind, she should keep in mindThere is nothing I do better than revenge, ha
She lives her life like it's a party and she's on the listShe looks at me like I'm a trend and she's so over itI think her ever present frown is a little troublingShe thinks I'm psycho 'cause I like to rhyme her name with things but
Sophistication isn't what you wear or who you knowOr pushing people down to get you where you wanna goOh, they didn't teach you that in prep school, so it's up to meBut no amount of vintage dresses gives you dignity
She's not a saint, and she's not what you thinkShe's an actress, whoaShe's better known for the things that she doesOn the mattress, whoa
Soon she's gonna find stealing other people's toysOn the playground won't make you many friendsShe should keep in mind, she should keep in mindThere is nothing I do better than revenge, ha
I'm just another thing for you to roll your eyes at, honeyYou might have him, but haven't you heard?I'm just another thing for you to roll your eyes at, honeyYou might have him, but I always get the last word
She's not a saint, and she's not what you thinkShe's an actress, whoaShe's better known for the things that she doesOn the mattress, whoa
Soon she's gonna find stealing other people's toysOn the playground won't make you many friendsShe should keep in mind, she should keep in mindThere is nothing I do better than revenge, ha
And do you still feel like you know what you're doing?'Cause I don't think you do, ohDo you still feel like you know what you're doing?I don't think you do, I don't think you do
Let's hear the applauseC'mon show me how much better you areSee you deserve some applause'Cause you're so much betterShe took him faster than you can say sabotage"
This song is about how sweet revenge is. In this song I think Taylor Swift's best revenge would be to let the other girl keep the guy. The story starts when it was hot and it was summerAnd I had it all, I had him right there where I wanted himShe came along, got him alone, and let's hear the applauseShe took him faster than you can say sabotage
I never saw it coming, wouldn't have suspected itI underestimated just who I was dealing withShe had to know the pain was beating on me like a drumShe underestimated just who she was stealing from

Revenge is just a crazy thing that people love.

Satire on The Real World
Satire
Ashley Wisniewski
Satire is the practice of making
fun of a human weakness or human character's flaw. The use of satire is often
inclusive of a need or decision of correcting or bettering the character that
is on the receiving end of the satire. Satire might be humorous. The purpose is
to derive a reaction of contempt in the reader.
This
picture above represents satire; towards the “poor” because now a day’s poor
people are not truly poor. Our government helps them out so much that they are
not poor. They are getting a free ride and because of their free ride they
don’t go looking for jobs. They get and make more off of the government then
they would if they were working. Many
people who do not have money spend what they do have on drugs, alcohol, and
other pointless things that they do not need. In this picture it shows a man
who clearly does not need money because he as a computer right next to him but,
people are still giving money to him because he is outside in old clothing.
This picture shows that he is spending money on things he does not need and not
what he needs to survive. Then he claims he has no money for his necessities
and people are just giving him money because he looks like he has nothing. I
think that if people got off their butts and worked for what they needed we
would not have to give them money for things that they do not need.
This picture represents satire to
the fact that this man never really used his head to do his work. They are
making fun of him because, him losing his head as not affected him. They were going to fire him because he lost
his head and normally when you lose your head you cannot work the right way
but, this man did not really do much before so it did not do anything to him
now. Now a days that is how people are they do not use their head to think and
make decisions, they just do whatever they want to do. In reality you should
have to use your head to do a good job but, lately people are just lazy and do
not care what happens. People not using their heads have caused companies to go
downhill. At my mother’s old job she had a boss who was getting paid triple
what everyone else was being paid and he did not even know what he was doing. Everyone
else was doing his job for him and he was getting paid for it. My mom’s boss
was just like the guy in this photo; both did not use this head to work. So even
if the company keeps them there it would not matter either way.
In conclusion Satire is used everywhere
you go. You can find it at work, at home, at school, in newspapers, and on the
internet. Satire is a form of sarcasm that is not meant to be taken seriously.
