Satire


Being satirized is a literary term used when people make fun of the human vice and when someone changes, or corrects my mistakes. It is being satirized when someone uses the literary term, the kind of change that is expected is the correction or change that was made. "This is a problem that affects manly, manly students. I myself was such a bed spiller once upon a term that my English teacher in my sophomoric year, Mrs. Myth, said I would never get into a good colleague." This reading has satire, because of the spelling errors it has such as manly instead of mainly. The article "Clint Eastwood Continues Desperate, 40-Year Attempt To Win Over Unimpressed Man" has satire because of his weakness of making movies that Lorrimer dislikes, and that is Clint Eastwood's goal to make a film that Lorrimer would like. "Nothing I do is ever good enough for Daryl", says Clint Eastwood and he has been trying for many years and all the films made my Clinton and yet, Lorrimer still does not like one. "Advice to Youth" also has satire. There are many sorts of books; but good ones are the sort for the young to read. remember that. They are a great, an inestimable, and unspeakable means of improvement. Therefore be careful in your selection, my young friends; be very careful; confine yourselves exclusively to Robertson’s Sermons, Baxter’s Saint’s Rest, The Innocents Abroad, and works of that kind. But I have said enough. I hope you will treasure up the instructions which I have given you, and make them a guide to your feet and a light to your understanding. Build your character thoughtfully and painstakingly upon these precepts, and by and by, when you have got it built, you will be surprised and gratified to see how nicely and sharply it resembles everybody else’s. these sentences have errors all over the place with comas missing periods, and not capitalizing letters after a period. Mark Twain provides six items of advice to the youth such as, obey your parents, be respectful to your superiors, always avoid violence, going to bed early and waking up early, be careful with lying, and never handle firearms carelessly. Mark Twain said obeying is the best policy, because if you don't they will make you. Parents have a superstition of always thinking they know better. Mark Twain instructs the youth to avoid violence by, "simply watching your chance and hit him with a brick. That will be sufficient. If you shall find that he had not intended any offense, come out frankly and confess yourself in the wrong when you struck him; acknowledge it like a man and say you didn’t mean to. Lying is bad, because if you get caught lying you will never be looked at the same anymore. Lying is a beautiful art, because it is indestructible and Mark Twain's advice about lying is to begin practice of this gracious and beautiful art early. The anecdote about the firearm is not funny at all, what if the firearm was loaded. According to Twain youth should not handle a firearm, because a youth who can’t hit a cathedral at thirty yards with a Gatling gun in three quarters of an hour, can take up an old empty musket and bag his grandmother every time, at a hundred. Mark Twain's advice about reading, "here are many sorts of books; but good ones are the sort for the young to read." The result to build one's character thoughtfully and painstakingly upon these precepts. This article is a good example of satire, because he gives the youth advice about how to fix most of the wrong things that is going on in our lives.
