Free Write - Shit People Say

The video we saw in class today was meant to be funny, but in my opinion it is only funny when you have a personal connection with the word in the middle of shit and say. For example, I've seen "Shit Girls Say" and it was hilarious because I know exactly what it was making fun of, and I experience it pretty much every day. I'm not really a yoga person, so this video, "Shit Yogis say" was not as funny because I do not have a personal connection to yogis. I've done yoga maybe once or twice, but that's about it. I've also seen "Shit App Students Don't Say." Parts of this were really funny to me because I have friends that go to App, and they tell me about different experiences they have, and about the sterotypical people that go to App. However, it was not funny in its entirety because  I do not go to App, and do not have a strong personal connection to App. This is why it is important to find out who your audience is, and what the main idea you want to convey to them is.
