Assignment 6- Jonathan Tungate

1) The school system is set up right now. For the first quarter or more of our entire lives, we are school, and everything we do is based around it.

2)People arguing about what "is a sport" and what isn't. It's pointless and nobody is ever going to be right.  (i.e. Golf isn't really a sport!)

3)What if your entire life is just one big reality television show, and nothing is actually real.


I'm going to pick number three to talk about. This idea could go many different ways, and there's lots of people that have taken this idea and transformed it into great movies, like The Matrix, or The Truman Show. This television show spawned the Truman Show delusion, in which a person may believe that their life is just a television show. After all, you never know, maybe they are right and everybody is just being fooled. Possibly, the people with that disorder are people that got a glimpse into the real world. It's scary to think that someday, you're life could be revealed and everything you've done so far in your life doesn't mean anything, and you've just been deceived. Or your life as far is just a big dream, and you wake up to your actual life thinking, "whoa, that was one crazy dream." Then you continue on with your actual life. So maybe nothing matters right now, and you're just giving the viewers back home one boring show, or a boring dream for your actual life. Is there any way to prove your life is your actual life?
