This is a pretty unconventional but playful assignment. After you look at the readings for Friday's class, you'll notice that Cullington and others mention textspeak and digital language. Basically, take a look at your past blog posts and pick one to rewrite in textspeak/digital language in a throwaway Twitter or Instagram account.
We're having some fun seeing the ways that our language and message content can change when we use social media. I actually encourage even more informal, digital-based language if it serves to convey a message (i.e. use of hash tags, abbreviations, fragments).

ReplyDeleteagree with your comment how the poor/unwealthy have to work twice or three times harder. But it can be argued the upper class have a different type of work where they supervise, manage, and plan which might be harder.
DeleteI agree with you comment of how the american dream isn't evenly distributed and how the one percent gets the whole dream.
DeleteI don't think standing up and to "unite" will help revive the so called "American Dream."
DeleteThe American dream can never truly be equal for all.
Deleteyour point on how the lower class has to work harder to achieve the same american dream seems interesting

ReplyDeletei love your post about the american dream not being the same for everyone. i totally agree
DeleteWe share a similar perspective on the current state of the American dream, that's awesome. Also, I like you tweet about street smart, it's very relatable to me.
DeleteI admire the quote you stated on your twitter.

ReplyDeleteI like your tweet talking about what will happen to our country in the future. Looking at the election, its giving off the vibe that the future is going to be grim. Also that meme moving to canada
DeleteI agree that the 2016 election is a joke along with the american dream. I like the informal tweets!
Delete#2017bebetter I completely agree...So terrifying where our country is headed.
DeleteThis 2016 election is a complete joke!! I am just waiting for someone to wake me up from this nightmare that America has entered itself into.
DeleteWhat have we really become, we have to choose between a liar and a racist,sexist,temperamental... I could go on for days.

ReplyDelete#preach LOL I love how you're writing so many facts that needs to be brought out!
Deletei totally agree with your posts. especially the emotion in texting
Delete"Texting lacks emotions" Totally agree with you on this statement. Do we actually laugh when we type "LOL". Do we actually roll on the floor when we type"ROFL" No, we don't. Lol.
Deleteyou made many great points that I agree with such as how texting isn't good for critical thinking.
DeleteI agree with your post about the internet making things easy for us. It's like a big shortcut to the finish line. That is why we are so close-minded nowadays!
DeleteYou made some great points.
DeleteI like how you try to include different hashtags and the posts have very interesting points.

ReplyDeleteI found your comment about Obama running for a third term amusing.
Delete#defineyourself I feel like my American Dream is very similar!
DeleteI totally agree with your post about Obama running for a third term!
DeleteYour tweet about the students with the same grades, So accurate! There's always some type or corruption in everything; that's where the term " You gotta know people" comes from.

ReplyDeleteI enjoyed reading your blog posts! Is the American Dream really still alive?
DeleteI agree you on that abbreviation of words is convenient for the conversation and I also believe we are losing our proper grammar in our process.

ReplyDeletewe have similar thoughts!
DeleteWe kind of share the same opinion on social media.
DeleteI agree with pretty much everything here.
DeleteLOL. I loved when your tweet said "one of the social media is really frying our brains. sad to say that today's generation is attached to the hip to it" and then you hashtagged yourself #me ! That was a funny joke. But that is me as well.
