blog post - symbols


I think this represents the obesity of America and shows how unhealthy we eat. We are a nation that needs to get things done fast and sometimes we only have time for this type of fatty food. We never take the time to slow down and eat a healthy meal. We complain about gaining weight and not being able to lose any and yet we continue to eat these kinds of foods.

I think this symbol represents how big of fans we are of sports and although Mcdonalds represents the fat side of our nation, sports like football and basketball represent the hardworking, and healthy side of our nation. We love sports and support our teams all the way till the end. It can also symbolize how loyal we are to our teams and country and how we can come together to stand for something.


I think this symbol of the company apple shows that we are an advanced nation and that we want luxury. If you have money to spend in this country then we only buy the best and Apple has the high luxyury status to match the high prices. We try to impress one another and buying nice things definitely does the trick. Apple has all the good quality things you can think of, from touch screen music players to touch screen computers.


I think this symbol represents how we communicate as people. We may have 500+ friends on facebook but only talk to 50 of them. We share our feelings to everyone on this site to share, get attention or just because we are bored. Although it does show how we can communicate much easier than we could 100 years ago, and how much innovation and technology changes. We adapt more quickly as people and are open to more ideas.


I think this symbol represents how we share things and how fast we can make them circulate. We see something that someone decided to share with us and then we share it with others. We can spread words quickly. Some videos get millions of hits within a week because we decided to share with each other. From music to random videos of people doing stupid things, we can find it all on this site. We have the power to make it popular or to make it a laughing stock.
