The character that im going to analyze is the fish. I have no reason for choosing him. The fish's personality contributes to the plot in a small way. The fish is the superego. A person may argue that the fish is just an ego, but i will argue that he is the SUPEREGO! When the fish speaks he is only talking about how the cat shouldn't be here, and how he is bad. The definition of a superego is
the part of the personality representing the conscience, formed in early life by internalization of the standards of parents and other models of behavior. (http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/superego) The fish is only thinking about how doing what the cat does is bad and will mess the house up. He is only thinking about the good and about himself. He just follows the rules and never has fun. He just says NO! He is the complete opposite of the cat. The Cat does change, but never says no. Who would have thunk that in high school we would have read The Cat in the Hat! The Fish represents the people who have the power. Police, Principals, Ranger Rick (or DANGER DICK meng mo's name for Ranger Rick) He is the one in power but it is funny becuase he was in control but never controlled the kids. They let the cat in and fuck up their house. He is why we enjoy doing "BAD" things. It's because nothing is "Bad" unless someone says its bad. I mean cursing was like horrible when you were little and now they are just words. I always had people telling me they are "Bad" but then i heard that person say it, so then it's bad to swear but it's ok to do it? I guess it is. The fish is the adult in this story. The cat is more the wild teenager that wants to have fun even by breaking the rules. The cat reminds me of the kid in all the movies that throws the parties away even when their parents say "NO" that sounds like the Fish a whole lot, but they are leaving so how can they stop them from throwing it? They can't. I have no idea how many words there are, but i will stop.

Killing two birds with One Stone
The first question i would like to answer is question number nine. I would dress the same way. i wouldn't care if i was arrested. The girls wore their scarfs their own way. Even if they were scolded at they would fix it and then they would change it once the person yells at you. Maybe i wouldn't want to dress how i wanted now that i realized that i could go to jail, But this is just a question and in America we have the freedom of speech so i don't care.
The Second question I have to talk about is what was the role of women in Persepolis. The role of women in persepolis at first was to be like the modern american woman. Then later on the women were forced to wear the veil. This was taking their freedom away. The women in Marji's family were for the freedom. This goes back to the question about changing your apperance or if you would risk going to jail.
The Next question im going to address is question DOS(2) I think Persepolis is better written as a graphic novel. The other memiors i have read are The Things they Carried by Tim O'Brien and Running with Scissors by Augusten Burroughs. I feel that i enjoyed the memiors slighty more because i had the freedom to imagine, but i liked the graphic novel because I saw what the author WANTED me to see. So it was a Win-Lose deal. I didn't like Persepolis. I got bored with it, but it did humor me, not like a LOL moment but a HA that was funny ( in my brain moment) nothing special.
The next question i have to talk about is question 3. I HAD NO VIEWS on Iran. Except that Iran had oil, Crazy ass guys that made laws that only benefited them and that Iran was persia a super super super long time ago. I only knew that it was a country some where in thte middle east. My views are just the same. I knew that the countries in the Middle East were becoming hell and a the government was fucking over the women. Reading Persepolis only made this 1000 times Clearer.

My Feed.
Ok so i know its pretty lame, i didnt have a glue stick or tape so i had to set it up and take a picture of it with my web cam and then yeah, This was like the 18th picture i had to take of it and the myspace photo got cut out. sorry. If i owned a "Feed" this is what i would see. I LOVE MY INTRENET, X-BOX LIVE, SPORTS, and COMEDY! These things are why i love life. I played fantasy football last season and i was always sitting on the Lazy Boy chair and for 9 hours i was glued to the tv and channel 9 and 11 were the channels that were to never be changed on the television. I would freak out if i didn't find out if my player got a huge play. I like to play halo 3 on XBL(X-box live) and pretty much any first person shooter. Soccer+Me= My life(in the fall) Poker is just super fun, even when you play online and the chips are free. You never want to lose. If im not watching Comedy Central, its either a Football,Soccer(Which is never on in the U.S) or Poker. There would be more stuff in this but i ran out of paper to print shit out so...... yeah.

Visual Essay
Ok so here are five images that all represnt a theme in the book Feed. The first image i uploaded(but is sadly last seen) is the pop up ads. Yes we all have had that one annoying pop up on our myspace or facebook. Just imagine what life would be having ads show up in your face. I would freak out. This just reminded me of a Dave Chappelle skit which you can view at the bottom of the page. The Second image i picked was the "Fashion Accesories" Fashion can be so stupid and rediculous. They could make a dress out of a garbage bag and some one would wear it then, you know what happens. The Poplar tree represnts the Cliques in school, in my mind there are two cliques for every one Clique, The Popular and Not Popular(then just add Goth, Punk, Prep, Jock, Geek, Asain in front of popular or not popular) The Friends poster is the OH! WHAT! THING! but in the "REAL" world(Ick i said the real world like the MTV Show, Im not going to get into that) Then the Lesion. I mean LOOK AT THAT. It is nasty and why would you want one? Like WTF. OK WOW! These pictures are why we consume what we do, because the tv stars have it, our friends, the tv says its cool. This is what makes us HUMAN.( The last song on my music player should be listened to.)
Sorry that the pop up image was at the bottom of the typing, I wanted my tacos. :)

Post #1
The first thing im going to respond to is the girls always changing their hair style. This is EXACTLY like America and the fashion world. The media, magazines, commericals and other things hook us to do this or that, change this to get attention and be loved. The truth is NOBODY GIVES A FRICK what you wear. You are just a sheep following the Shepard and then there is the little shepard dog( your own friends) that keep you wearing the same thing and being in fashion, but is this who YOU really are? You are just being the same and doing the same as everyone. Hollister, Aeropassss..... I dont even know who the hecck to spell it, AE, AF, Dicks (who in the world would want to wear something that says "DICKS"?) The Feed(media) is what keeps us wearing this shit.
The second response I would like to talk about is that Titus states that Quendy is the economy model of Calista. This TOTALLY reminds me of the movie Mean Girls the 3 that follow that one chick around and agree with EVERYTHING she thinks is right. They are just not at her status, they arent even true friends. They can't do anything for theirself.
Q:What is like on the moon? Why is it a popular destination for young people? A: The moon is a party place. The Cancoon of space. The moon was just a place to chill out on, but the very first sentence was "We went to the moon to have fun, but the moon turned out to completly suck" I know what they mean. Ive been to Rome, i thought Rome was going to be super cool, but it sucked, there was WAY too many people. You would take one step and BAM you hit someone, You would accidently bump into some one and BAM, AIDS, There was too many people. I havent been to cancoon, but im sure you would go to some hotel and then all of a sudden you would see 12061964981624981624 other people checking in at the same time. If i went on vacation i would go some where it is chill. How would you sleep with all the drunk people and crack heads doing lines? You wouldn't.
