Hey, my names Afif and I'm pretty big on comedy. I think a lot of people take life to serious, and sometimes just need a good laugh. I'm a sophomore majoring in business LIKE A BOSS. I like to listen to all sorts of music except country unless its Taylor Swift. I also enjoy playing basketball and I love watching it along with football.
In my personal opinion I think Scott Russell brings about a very important topic that people don't often like to speak of. I think that drinking is fine but only on special occasions, it becomes a problem when people do it every day or every weekend. "It is most humorous lexicon..... to the nursery, where he vomits in Baby's shoe." I feel like the author wrote this because he felt as if the media was feeding to peoples addiction to drinking. It struck me most because I can completely understand the view he is putting forth. I feel like people depend on drinking to have fun, and have lost a sense of fun without substance abuse. I see it all the time around my friends, who feel the need to be off some high in order to have a good time. Russell wanted to address the problem of alcoholism, but I feel as if this writing could be interpreted in many different ways.
I agree with drinking being done on only special occasions, its fun to be social, but if you do it too much it can become a problem and cause unwanted situations to happen.
ReplyDeleteAfif, it is great that you bring a sense of humor into your life. I think a lot of times people would feel a lot more optimistic if they could sit back and laugh about something, anything. I am a true believer in the saying, "Laughter is the best medicine."

ReplyDeleteAfif, I like Taylor Swift too! :) I agree with your comment about the media. I think the media plays a huge part in what we believe and how we see things.
