Everything is Hilarious
Feb. 23rd, 2009 03:21 amHomework assignment.
I am writing about trying to make Bruce and Barbara reach an understanding and I can't do it because I don't understand Robbins. All I know is that I'm with Barbara on this one, Bruce. No maid. (It sounds less hilarious if you know that it's Bruce Robbins and Barbara Ehrenreich, but only a little bit.) These names.
...I wonder how badly Mr. Gordon will take it if I just turn in fanfiction tomorrow instead? It hardly matters; I can't write dialogue for peanuts.
No one in my class got the hilarity of one of the characters in our reading being named Terri and married to a Dr. Mel McGinnis. Dre is right; there is a conspiracy.
I love this class.
EDIT: I cheated and wrote lots and lots of introspection instead of really going at that first person. I always do this. This is why I can't quicklog. There was some "unreliable narrator" thrown in there for flavor. Yeah, academic papers need flavor. The sort of flavor where the writer is clearly a shallow and dense person, but at least now my professor knows who he's working with here.
