Every day twenty eight people’s lives have been taken in the United States due to an impaired friend driving under the influence. That adds up to about 10,220 deaths per year all because someone felt the need to put themselves,and others in the car at risk, just because they could not wait until they were not impaired to drive. The Budweiser marketing team devised a commercial in 2015 called “Someone Waits For You At Home” to try to persuade people to not drive while inebriated. They create a sense of pain and sadness in order to convey the message to not drink and drive amongst those who are at the legal drinking age, and to those under the drinking age so they can influence people early on in their life. They encourage people that they have someone waiting for them at home so it is not worth it to even step into the car drunk. The marketing team of “Someone Waits For You At Home”, emphasizes enthymeme, concise yet passionate diction, and mood to share the message not to drink and drive. The first approach the marketing team takes is they use enthymeme, an implied reference, to appeal to people of drinking age. In this commercial ad they show the dog whining almost painfully at the door waiting for his owner to come home. This implies that it is bad to leave your dog, companion to suffer in sadness for a long length of time. This does not actually need to be stated aloud, as it is the main point of that part they are trying to put out there. The man later comes home saying…

In Frankenstein by Mary Shelley, Victor’s world is in a continuous state of change, from his family to his environment. However, the one thing that never deviates in the novel is Victor’s negative perspective of the Creature.

Elizabeth, the most important member of Victor’s family, appears to be one of…

Have you ever had one of the worst people in your life become the best role model you have ever had? My whole life I just wanted my father to be there for me and love me like he loved my younger siblings, But I never felt what that was like.

I learned more about who I wanted to be as a man, and as a father in my own…

In the novel Frankenstein by Mary Shelley, Victor Frankenstein’s death was a tragedy because of how smart and talented he was. However, he was very troubled due to his creature. After the creature had been born, Victor thought, “I had desired it with an ardour that far exceeded moderation; but now that I had finished, the beauty of the dream vanished, and breathless horror and disgust filled my heart” (39). Victor’s creature was horrendous to look at, had an IQ of a baby, and had ability to…

As a mammothWayward Pines fan, I always did my utmost to notice every single character who made an entrance into the season two of the show, even if they were only there for a fleeting moment. In the case of Dakota Daulby, I was fully impressed with his ephemeral appearance, and I contacted him immediately for an interview. Recently, Dakota took some time from his frenetic schedule to answer a few questions about the extraordinary experiences and opportunities he has had throughout his career…

Growing up, I noticed, when approached with conflict, my sisters and my mother would often state that they did not want to talk about it or would simply leave the room. I now have a phrase for this: the exit response. For us, the exit response was always temporary. If the problem was serious, it would eventually be brought back up; if it wasn’t, then things usually got better on its own. While my dad is often the first to use the voice response, I have noticed that my dad often chooses the…

While reading Frankenstein I was shaken to the core. Now that sounds like an over exaggeration, but I was reading much more of the story than what is presented. I read between the lines and then dug up dirt. I read at the root of the story and in doing so I was moved to tears. Frankenstein is about character building. Victor Frankenstein starts out as a student with a hunger and thirst for knowledge. Somewhere along the line he loses his way and becomes obsessed with his quest for discovery. I…
