Mac vs PC Who's Better?



Who is really targeted in this ad? I think Apple tries to show that PC targets much of the older people and is presented by an older boring gentleman, which kind of shows how the PC experience is dull. On the other hand Apple is presented by a teen meaning like stylish and fun like your teen years. The PC man looks old and stuffy. He looks like he is childish and playful and doesn’t look too serious. I feel like people push more for the teen because of the way he is dressed. He is presented as wearing not so much as fancy but fashionable clothing rather as the PC gentleman is wearing a suit.

Who men marry


Most men who get married are married to woman who take care of them. Except when they are kids and teens its not always the same deal. The kids that usually have girlfriends, do not look for girls who take care of them because that is not what is so important to them. To kids and teens, it is girls who they get to know who and with girls that will turn into a relationship. But with the adults, I believe that they reason why they look for someone to take care of them because they can't take care of themselves. Most men have very busy lives and they might not have time to clean up their apartments or houses, they might not have time to wash clothes or to make a good dinner. So they look for someone who can take care of them cleaning their homes, feeding them doing what they can't do because they work.

Morgan Spurlock is the greatest man alive in my opinion for pulling off a task like that. He eats McDonald the most unhealthiest fast food place alive for thirty days trying to prove a point. Now if that point doesn't work then I don't know what will. I do not know if I would be able to do something like that. Eating is a way of life to me and I will eat anything there is that is possible. But I will not eat something unhealthy for breakfast lunch and dinner because it will destroy my body structure. Basically the things that I do in my life tells a lot about me and if I stop doing one those things then it takes away apart of my life. I think that not only did Morgan give up eating healthy but he also gave up the way his body looks, and how his body acts to it. I'm excited to see what they results of the movie because I would like to know if McDonald is sued or if are not. I would also like to know the results with him at the end of the thirty days.

Doritos commercial

In this Doritos commercial called "Power of the Crunch" shows that if people buy Doritos get whatever they want. It shows them that anything is possible once you buy the product. The only problem I see with this commercial is that its false advertising. People should know that if they buy a food product that not everything will come to what they want. I think this is where they go wrong. I think that if Doritos wanted to have a good commercial to get their product out there then they would make a commercial that would seem realistic. Although, the commercial was really funny so I have to give them props are being creative, but they need to make it seem more realistic for people to buy the product.

AD Analysis Miler Light


In the Miller Light commercials they are trying to get the message across that all people can drink Miller Light no matter your class or what type of person you are. Anyone can drink it and everyone should enjoy it together. In the commercials he uses comedy to keep the attention of the viewer and this is how their product is known. They are showing the product but the catch phrase “High Life” is what they use to try to make the viewers remember the product. An example of this is there was a super bowl commercial for Miller Light that was 1 second long of the Miller Light guy saying “High Life” Something as simple as that can get the viewer to know your product and is funny at the same time. Miller Light is a good example of how you can use a person as a figure where people will know your product and a catch phrase all to get the message across about your product.

Reebok Advertisment Analysis

In this advertisement Reebok uses a lot of slapstick comedy, because of this the ad appeals to a lot of younger viewers. The advertisement is pretty far off topic with the actual product being marketed, it does not actually mention any certain product being sold by Reebok; however, I think the ad is still effective because there is enough plugging of the actual company name to remind the viewer of who the advertisement is for. It doesn't apply to any of the categories in Maslow's Hierarchy, so it doesn't have any rational appeal to viewers, but for sporting good companies like Reebok I don't think the adds need to be rational.

One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest

I would not go as far as banning One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest from all schools, but I think that the novel should be banned from middle schools and below because of some language and the somewhat promotional use of racism and sexism between R.P. McMurphy and Chief Bromden. The criticisms are fair for today's world but this book was written in a completely different era with completely different social norms.

The main challenges of having a schizophrenic narrator are that you don know when Bromden is having a hallucination and how he viewing a situation, Bromden could be describing Nurse Ratched chaining him down and forcing food down his throat when he could be sitting in a rocking chair with a tray of food in front of him.


The novel and the "Merry Pranksters" may have ushered in many of the popular drugs of the sixties, because of his success despite the use of hallucinogens.
