Vocab Examples

Anecdote- I think a good example of anecdote would be Dane Cook. Dane Cook is a comedian he tells all of his jokes in story form. An example is when he's talking about accidents and how everybody loves them. He said he was sleeping then he heard the sound of a car skid then he shot up and then he got mad because there was no crash. Then he heard another sound of a car skid then he heard the crash and jumped out of his bed and couldn't find his shoes and instead of looking for them he went outside to see what happened.

Farce- An good movie example of a farce is Delta Farce. In this movie Larry loses his job then his girlfriend all on the same day. Then joins his neighbor then ends up getting mistaken for recruits then sent to Iraq.




Parody- A parody is when someone copies someone but changes the words around. Wierd Al Yakovich makes a living off of doing this. One of his songs are "White and Nerdy" which is a parody of "Riding Dirty".

Satire- The show The Simpsons is a good example of satire. The main thing that thats satirical about The Simpsons is religion. They take a lot of shots at religion in the show. An example of this is the church scene from The Simpsons movie.
