Furthermore, some of the most authentic people in the world are also the most self-absorbed.
A dangerous assumption here that ALL people are inherently self-infatuated. Is Donald Trump the best synonym for humanity? Do benevolent, selfless people exist?
This is why they're winning millennial hearts and minds.
But are they? Claims like this are subjective when some consumers genuinely don't appreciate the true authenticities of Vice or Kanye. Sometimes, we don't like it when we see someone's true colors. A later Trump example in this article further highlights my argument. Is it better to be authentic if the reality stinks?
Would you rather have dinner with the most dependable man in the world or the most interestingman in the world?
This is my modern dating crisis. All men are pigs anyway though, so does it really matter?

why are these capitalized
Not only are we not smarter than them
I definitely appreciate the compliment and attention, but I'd say this might need a source and evidence.
The title says it all. But maybe Donald Trump just can't help it. He was born this way - with an unsophisticated flavor palette, I mean. https://jezebel.com/donald-trump-eats-his-steak-well-done-with-ketchup-lik-1792770173
heart of meat, it is meat in its pure state; and whoever partakes of it
Says who? Are references to mythology or to literary symbolism/allusions really credible and valid sources? Never have I ever experienced bull-like strength.
like German food andIrish food.Irish food
This nears contradiction to "Food that isn't associated with whites will be called ethnic." German and Irish people are white. Consequently, this article inadvertently interchanges the words "white" and "American" which is not entirely accurate or appropriate.
mark a certain kind of difference
So maybe in the broadest essence, "ethnic" describes many of these cheap and inauthentic foods correctly. Taco Bell might not be authentically hispanic but it is a different taste and it is a different culture. Connotatively, Taco Bell (certainly) is an American lie, but denotatively, is it ethnic? Is ethnic marked by "difference" or by "authenticity"?
never willing to pay for it.
To pay for it? Or to find it? Where I am located, it is just culturally uncommon to find culturally authentic foods. I suspect that this issue is less economical for many and more geographical.
the UnitedStates Congress asked President George Bush
I feel like...maybe...just maybe...Congress could do something just a hair more productive. Then again, as I type this sarcastic comment, I realize that country music might mean more unto others than it does to me. County music (and all music) impacts others in different ways. I'm curious to know the correlation between country music and the Gulf War/American identity.
"It is the end of black folk, and the beginning of global niggadom," he proclaimed.
Okay but I actually find this quote hugely important to the ever prevalent social concept of labeling! Think about how brutally just one single word has pervaded our sociopolitical atmosphere. Not everything can be diminished to sticks and stones when we accidentally label an entire ethnicity into "niggadom."
Real Niggaz don't die. -Dr. Dre
Once again, I am in awe at these scholarly sources. Iconic.
I conclude my dis-cussion of LA's spatialized racial dynamic with a brief discussion of Los Angeles's 'War on IJrugs' campaign to illustrate how the urban.
Not to be the stylistically pretentious snob that I totally am, but why would you include the "War on Drugs" in the title to this article's entirety if it's just a "brief discussion" that isn't introduced until the 12th page!!!! Just saying!!!!
charged almost JOO police officers to profile suspects
Who's gonna profile the police officers though? [curious emoji]
music transcends socially constructed racial or ethnic boundaries
Or, is music a product of socially constructed racial and ethnic boundaries?
African-American identity within Los Angeles.
Not to entirely delegitimize the validity of the article, but I would argue that only gathering information in Los Angeles would be a flaw in any scientific method based experiment. Similar to science, data is more valid when it is experimented over numerous variables. Making conclusions based solely on the African-American culture in one California city and then applying this conclusion as a poster child for all African-Americans and their relationships to rap music seems to be too assumptive.
Daddy..()
A highly reputable source. Choosy scholars choose Daddy-O.
The principal object, then, proposed in these Poems was to choose incidents and situations from common life, and to relate or describe them, throughout, as far as was possible in a selection of language really used by men, and, at the same time, to throw over them a certain colouring of imagination, whereby ordinary things should be presented to the mind in an unusual aspect; and, further, and above all, to make these incidents and situations interesting by tracing in them, truly though not ostentatiously, the primary laws of our nature
Wordsworth makes the most prominent and explicit sentiment to the Poems' purpose here - directly sharing his authorial goals, technique, and train of thought. Taking what's ordinary, and presenting it otherwise.
Catullus
Latin poet of the late Roman Republic who wrote neoteric poetry
The result has differed from my expectation in this only, that a greater number have been pleased than I ventured to hope I should please.
I would make the claim that Wordsworth is attempting to portray a likable sense of humility for public appeal, and I just have to say that we see right through that Wordy.
