Research Ideas Blog
They are many food places around campus to eat with a variety selection of type of food. Burgers, burritos, chinese, indian, and so forth. On this map the food is which chicken tenders place is the best around campus. There many different places such as Raising Canes, Lo Lo's Chicken and Waffles, KFC, and Buffalo Wings. Each have their own unigue way of making them and the banger that makes people coming back. However since there is so many places to eat, evidently one has to be superior to the others. What makes a person choose one over another would be price, the quality, reviews/ opinions from other people, the location is key, and how the chicken is made; breaded or non-breaded for example. At these different locations there are different types of things you can get at each and some are limited to their specialty. Depending on what your tastebuds tell you what they want, then you will decide which chain you will pick.

Yelp Blog
When it comes to
Yelp the main reason for the website is to provide reviews to society on
what restaurants and such have the best reviews. The reviews on Yelp can
be concluded that most of them are based on people’s opinions, rather than
facts. Also many individuals are biased when it comes to the specific theatre
or even place to eat. However the website is very helpful for people who are
visiting a state or country, not having an idea what good places there are. How
people decide which vendor is better depends on the number of stars the vendor has.
The more stars means the top, recommended vendor to go too; low number of stars
means low quality. At first glances looking at the reviews the ones with the
most reviews are primarily at the top of the page and the less stars follow.
For example Connor M explains how he thinks about Vista Del Sol: “These apartments are vastly overpriced for their cheap
build quality, constantly require maintenance from a management team that
doesn't know what they are doing.” He gave the review a one star which
is very low. Living at Vista right now being unbiased yes the apartments can be
costly, but the amenities and what comes with apartment the price is up to
point and the management is awesome.
Most of the people that do the reviews and are negative ones have had
bad experiences with the vendor becoming biased about their like for the
vendor. However most of the reviews are valid and give great tips, comments.
Plus Yelp can also help out with finding directions if needed as well. Say if
you come to Phoenix, Arizona looking for a place to eat wings you just look on
Yelp and Atl Wings will pop up. Court S stated that Atl Wings was “I'd be
shocked if there was a better wing place in AZ. The wings are out of this
world. So are the honey biscuits. The prices are good too. Yes, there is a wait
for your food. But I have no problem waiting for food prepared only AFTER I've
ordered it. The honey habanero are the best. So is the garlic parmesan. You can
tell they actually make their own sauces and don't just pour a bottle of who
knows what on the wings. This place is worth the money and the wait. Seriously,
you won't be disappointed.” That are some ideas Yelp can give viewers or
people being curious of what is around.
In
WP2 I would use some of the idea Yelp uses as in reviews but I will also
include an excellent pro with a con that tries to triumph my place. Using a map
with also be helpful so that the people looking the particular vendor can find
the location. Also just by using a lot of research and opinions unbiased by the
people I can get the best results.

Blog response for "Brick"
To be honest I never even heard or even knew that this movie “Brick”
existed. However reading your evaluation and summary of the movie I can get a
crystal clear visual on what the whole movie portrays. The movie seems
interesting with a lot of drama and excitement. Being fond of movies that
involve mystery and investigation I probably will check out this movie one day.
I liked how you involved the major details of what goes on for people like me
who have never heard of the movie. Also on how all the characters involved in
the movie fit well together. You then explain the genre of the movie, which is
a mystery plus dramatic with a hint of comedy. The picture does justice as well
to capture the main character as how he looks like a nerdy kid, but now is
ripping teeth out to find out who killed his lover. The movie seems like the
type that just wants the viewers to be on their toes wondering what comes next.
All in all the blog of the “Brick” was amusing and enjoyable to read, the movie
seemed interesting. Plus you had many key components on what you thought were
important for the reader.
Blog Response for Azalea's "Mean Girls" blog
It is very comical that you picked “Mean Girls” and watched
it on National “Mean Girls” Day. Even though the movie is a little girly, I
have sisters and have watched the movie many times. No matter how girly the
movie seems, I agree that the movie is very popular; like who has not seen the
movie. The reason I believe that the
movie became popular is that because it is funny with a lot of exaggeration throughout
being non-popular to achieving the goal of popularity. In high school no matter
what, everyone is trying to be well known, knowing everybody with everybody
knowing them. This movie also has a lot
of stereotyping in which you start off school as a complete stranger meeting
friends, and then lose some friend relationships. Plus your closest friends
talking mess about you behind your back. In high school there were always lies
and fake rumors, which were over exaggerated in the movie. I don’t relate to
this movie, but I know many girls from my high school that can relate to mean
girls, which is why the movie is comedy. All in all I liked how you summarized
the movie with the important aspects of the movie for people who haven’t seen
the movie can understand why the movie is so popular.
South Park "Sarcastaball"
South Park is by far one of my favorite animation shows besides The Simpsons and Family Guy. During this week however I watched this episode of South Park called Sarcastball. What happens during it is that Stan's dad Randy gets upset that the school won't let the kids have kickoff and kick return while playing football because of the high risks of concussions. What this symbolizes is how the NFL and its commissioner has put a big emphasis on the concerns and safety to prevent concussions. So Randy goes to the school parent meeting to talk about the football rules and being like his sarcastic self, states that the kids should play football with bra's on, tin hats for helmets, play with a balloon, and be nice with a lot of hugging. Not knowing that he is being sarcastic the school goes with his idea. As the show goes on the new football Sarcastaball becomes a hit and influences the NFL. Randy becomes the head coach of the Denver Broncos. There is also a part in the show when the referees mess up on a call, making fun of the referees that were the replacements for the NFL. Then Butters being the nicest individual out of all of the children becomes the star athlete of Sarcastaball. There are many other things that happened throughout the show, but are not appropriate for this particular assignment.
When it comes to South Park many people are not fond of it. However when it comes to this animation show, the directors always try to keep the events up to date and make fun of what is happening in society. What this does is that since they include particular events in the show that are fresh in the minds of people, more people will know what they are talking about. The show goes overboard a little bit, but having the directors change how they approach the show would completely change the credit and popularity of the show. I think that the show will always be around because the episodes are funny and are up to date. In this particular show I liked how they incorporated in how the NFL is taking serious precautions for concussions with also the replacement refs in the show to show how bad their calls were in real life. This episode was a hit and put their point across in which what they were trying to prove. The author shouldn't have changed anything throughout this episode because everything flowed with what was going on. If someone is looking for back to back comedies I would recommend watching South Park on Wednesdays followed by another comical show Key and Peele.
