Comments by Jaden Klebba Most recent public comments by Jaden Klebba https://nowcomment.com/users/34876 The author does a well job of exaggerating and dramatizing these things. That is the humor. https://nowcomment.com/documents/78250?scroll_to=1037682 https://nowcomment.com/documents/78250?scroll_to=1037682 Mon, 11 Jun 2018 15:25:05 -0400 The author exaggerates his/her opinion against the other opinion that I'm guessing majority owns. I agree, so far in the story, this is the strongest paragraph of them all. https://nowcomment.com/documents/78250?scroll_to=1037678 https://nowcomment.com/documents/78250?scroll_to=1037678 Mon, 11 Jun 2018 15:22:29 -0400 True! However I'm sure this author could find some evidence to support his opinion. https://nowcomment.com/documents/78250?scroll_to=1037677 https://nowcomment.com/documents/78250?scroll_to=1037677 Mon, 11 Jun 2018 15:19:13 -0400 C https://nowcomment.com/documents/78250?scroll_to=1037676 https://nowcomment.com/documents/78250?scroll_to=1037676 I think this is such an interesting article already. The author is right. We can't eliminate natural occurring things in the world, only learn how to deal with it. Mon, 11 Jun 2018 15:16:23 -0400 The stereotype of people who wear Birkenstocks and who want to ban "human target" associated games helps add humor. https://nowcomment.com/documents/78250?scroll_to=1037675 https://nowcomment.com/documents/78250?scroll_to=1037675 Mon, 11 Jun 2018 15:14:47 -0400 The title of this article is attention grabbing. Somewhat controversial and it promotes the underdogs. https://nowcomment.com/documents/78250?scroll_to=1037674 https://nowcomment.com/documents/78250?scroll_to=1037674 Mon, 11 Jun 2018 15:12:53 -0400 I guess it's quite comical how serious a young boy or girl can make dodgeball seem. He uses the word "survive" and describes the welt on the kids leg, it makes it sound so serious. https://nowcomment.com/documents/78248?scroll_to=1037673 https://nowcomment.com/documents/78248?scroll_to=1037673 Mon, 11 Jun 2018 15:10:14 -0400 c https://nowcomment.com/documents/78248?scroll_to=1037671 https://nowcomment.com/documents/78248?scroll_to=1037671 Since he is comparing class to dodgeball, I'm guessing his tactic for dodgeball is to hide long enough until he actually has to play. Mon, 11 Jun 2018 15:08:18 -0400 I think being dramatic helps add humor to the story. P https://nowcomment.com/documents/78248?scroll_to=1037670 https://nowcomment.com/documents/78248?scroll_to=1037670 Mon, 11 Jun 2018 15:04:27 -0400 D https://nowcomment.com/documents/78248?scroll_to=1037669 https://nowcomment.com/documents/78248?scroll_to=1037669 This is funny because this kid was saying that dodgeball is a game for surviving. In the end, the coach says that he'd be a pro, so he'd be a pro at surviving. Mon, 11 Jun 2018 14:59:36 -0400 C https://nowcomment.com/documents/78248?scroll_to=1037667 https://nowcomment.com/documents/78248?scroll_to=1037667 It seems like many people are disagreeing with the first sentence of this paragraph. After reading the articles in 11.1, I recall the author saying that humor is used with an unpopular opinion. I don't really have an opinion on dodgeball, but I guess based on others' comments, maybe that's the goal is to oppose others opinions. Mon, 11 Jun 2018 14:52:56 -0400 Nought means for nothing. https://nowcomment.com/documents/78247?scroll_to=1036432 https://nowcomment.com/documents/78247?scroll_to=1036432 Tue, 05 Jun 2018 21:51:05 -0400 Is he the greatest for all he has or for what he has done to get what he has? A https://nowcomment.com/documents/78247?scroll_to=1036426 https://nowcomment.com/documents/78247?scroll_to=1036426 Tue, 05 Jun 2018 21:44:42 -0400 "Eschewed" means to refrain from or steer clear from. Job seems like a good man so far. I wonder why he feared god. L https://nowcomment.com/documents/78247?scroll_to=1036424 https://nowcomment.com/documents/78247?scroll_to=1036424 Tue, 05 Jun 2018 21:43:05 -0400 I think the message here is that even though we all have certain troubles, there are other things that we should be grateful for, even if it's not the answer to our main problem. https://nowcomment.com/documents/78245?scroll_to=1036406 https://nowcomment.com/documents/78245?scroll_to=1036406 Or that everyone has something that disables them from happiness, but there are other things that you should be grateful for to overcome that disability. Tue, 05 Jun 2018 21:18:53 -0400 So far, the angel has done nothing to harm. It's weird that the neighbor and priest knew so much about angels yet everyone was so amazed. Maybe it was a common legend or tale told in their town. https://nowcomment.com/documents/78245?scroll_to=1036401 https://nowcomment.com/documents/78245?scroll_to=1036401 Tue, 05 Jun 2018 21:13:42 -0400 I feel bad for the old man! He was only there to help. Pelayo was negatively influenced by the majority's judgment. I wonder why the consequence of having an angel in your house would be death. https://nowcomment.com/documents/78245?scroll_to=1036395 https://nowcomment.com/documents/78245?scroll_to=1036395 Tue, 05 Jun 2018 21:00:59 -0400 I wonder how sick the baby is. How could the angel help? https://nowcomment.com/documents/78245?scroll_to=1036393 https://nowcomment.com/documents/78245?scroll_to=1036393 Tue, 05 Jun 2018 20:58:27 -0400 I thought it would be an animal. What are these wings? Is it a blanket that looks like wings? Is it symbolizing something bigger? https://nowcomment.com/documents/78245?scroll_to=1036392 https://nowcomment.com/documents/78245?scroll_to=1036392 Tue, 05 Jun 2018 20:56:51 -0400 Already the author is setting in the dynamic of the story. They live by the sea and they may not have the sturdiest house, or maybe it's in older times. Based on reading the biography of Gabriel Marquez, this is influenced by the times back then. https://nowcomment.com/documents/78245?scroll_to=1036390 https://nowcomment.com/documents/78245?scroll_to=1036390 Tue, 05 Jun 2018 20:55:13 -0400 The water must've been so strong and controlling. S https://nowcomment.com/documents/78241?scroll_to=1035243 https://nowcomment.com/documents/78241?scroll_to=1035243 Fri, 01 Jun 2018 11:00:46 -0400 The way the author organizes the order of events is new. I wonder why she chose to do it this way. It seems like she wants to show that all the way in the beginning it seemed like an innocent day but in the end saddening. S https://nowcomment.com/documents/78241?scroll_to=1035241 https://nowcomment.com/documents/78241?scroll_to=1035241 Fri, 01 Jun 2018 10:58:50 -0400 I agree! He must have been so shocked on how quick it happened. I wonder what happened so quickly.

How did the boy die? No wonder why the grandma wants to quickly reverse the negative thoughts of the ocean in her grandkids minds.

When one leans towards something it is either because things generally revolve around that thing or they like the thing. The title is also "Currents". Fri, 01 Jun 2018 10:49:32 -0400
