Welcome to the blog for Prof. John Talbird's English 201 class. The purpose of this site is two-fold: 1) to continue the conversations we start in class (or to start conversations BEFORE we get to class) and 2) to practice our writing/reading on a weekly basis in an informal forum.

God
Now this story, this story I enjoyed! First of all I would like to add that the title completely threw me off. I am an atheist and do not particularly enjoy religious themes when it comes to literature. However clearly, God was just a symbol(thankg god). The story was really unique in my opinion and although there was some foreshadowing with his fondness towards Nutella, I still could not foresee the timeline. Clearly there is some irony that comes into play in this story. The frat life was pretty on point. I am not that experienced in that field but I have seen some turnouts and it is pretty accurate. It was ironic how the only guy to finally be able to satisfy God was a gay guy. Ironic in many platitudes. First that it was a gay guy that satisfied the girl between all the other more manlier brothers. And second, more religiously, that it was a GAY guy who pleased GOD. Seeing how the bible does not condone gays. Really made me chuckle to be honest. Great story!
