English Homework leads to Infatuation
Okay, so, I haven’t been keeping up on this blog. Life’s been busy and all that, but my fault.. there’ll be more posts later on.
Anyway…
Today, I was doing a little homework for ENG 111. Assignment: Close Analysis of a Concept. (I have to evaluate a comic, ad, or another graphic in that vein.) My subject? A somewhat risqué ad for ThinkGeek.com (see picture to the left).
So, I go to do research. Right into ThinkGeek.com. What do I find there? Magic! Excitement! Wonder! Not really. I find a site filled to the brim with the coolest in geekery and gadgetry. I love what I see. I adore it! I am immediately drawn into the lush landscape of things I wish I could have. I simply have to look at everything, lest some artifact of awe slip me by. I have to get the rest of my homework done, as well, so I am faced with a dilemma: browse the virtual catalogue of wonder, or finish my homework so I don’t have to do it tomorrow. I choose ‘B’. Wise, neh? To homework I go!
While I’m busy analyzing a screwdriver, check out my ThinkGeek.com wish list. Even if you can’t buy me anything, you can donate to my cause (donate button to come later, when my ‘net connection is better).
