Welcome To Night Vale Character Analysis

After recently starting the book Silver by Chris Wooding it is clear that there are are many different characters shaped the way they are because of previous experiences. Thus far, the characters of the novel have been introduced one by one. Paul is the new kid at Mortingham Boarding Academy, and he has a dark secret that no one knows. Caitlyn admires Paul from afar and resents that he only has eyes for Erika. Erika thinks that she and Caitlyn are best friends, but she’s wrong, Adam is a bully with a major chip on his shoulder and Mark is outgrowing his old friends but doesn’t know how to make new ones. Each individual character has a different problem and they all stem from different walks of life. One quote that showed insight about the characters’

Inherit the Wind is a play by Jerome Lawrence and Robert E. Lee that depicts the infamous Scopes Trial. The real names of the persons involved in the case were changed, however, the play recounts the same story. One journalist in the story, E.K. Hornbeck, who is closed-minded, a hypocrite, and very cynical proves that the religious community of Hillsboro is not the only one to be intolerant.

Have you read Wonder or Summer ball? They are both amazing books. In the story Wonder, by R.J. Palacio, Julian is a big bully and in the story Summer ball, by Mike Lupica, Lamar is also a big bully. Both Lamar and Julian are big bullies because they bully the main character, and not only the main character but also other characters. The first reason I think they are both bullies is because they both bully the main character in the book they are in.

Our actions and interactions with others and society are what define us. Society’s perception of an individual may contrast with that individual’s perception of self.

Walls and shelves of different treats, and Buc-ee’s even presents its own brand of Beaver Nuggets - a sweet, crunchy corn snack. And in each store, a counter the size of a small New York City apartment is overly stocked with 30 flavors beef jerky, smoked sausages and other cured meats. When standing in that area, you can smell the Bohemian garlic beef jerky, which had a pleasant salty pungency, and the cherry maple, which is a lot more subtly sweet than it sounds. Next to that, there’s a quick-service restaurant, prepping many dishes, ranging from smoked brisket to Tex-Mex tacos. Looking at the options of spicy pickled quail eggs to sweet apple pies, the food provided at Buc-ee’s is more than enough to eat for a small break on the road. The varieties and large portions of food seemed to have a meaning beyond consumption itself. As people carry to go boxes and not even open or taste some of the food during their stop, the food loses its meaning of being eaten and gains a meaning of being a souvenir. The cultural food alone provokes customers to want to keep these seemingly authentic, home cooked items, perhaps to share or give to others as novelties and gifts. With that, Buc-ee’s intends to provide more than necessary.

The fight for justice is not always unequivocal or favorable, sometimes justice is given by means that do not seem fair at all.
