HUM 101 Week 4 Poo Culture Survey

1.) The reason I picked the examples I picked is because these are the things that I ended up preoccupying my time either directly (such as reading a magazine or watching a movie) or indirectly (such as background music). Music is a big part of my life, it either pushes me through a tedious or boring task, mellows me out after a stressful day, or pumps me up for a late night of partying. Motorcycles are a growing passion in my life so I read as much as I can on them to enrich my knowledge about them. My other passion is movies, I probably own as much as 2,500 movies, enough to open my own video store, LOL.

2.) Though it was hard for me to ultimatly narrow my choices dow to a specific genre of influence, I belive the most influential partwould have to originate from Music. Like I said my answer to question 1, it can bring my mood up, mellow me out, or pump me up. A close second pick for me would be movies,. Alot of my slang and humor originates from movie catch phrases and scenes.

3.) I get through my life with humor, alchohol and porn, JK, but not really...or am I. Other than personal experiences, I get alot of my humor from movies old and new. As far as Political, Religeous, or serious influential choices I make pop culture does not directly influence my decision-making.

4.) Like I answered in the question above pop culture does not directly influence my decisions on serious matters in my life. It can however influence what cloths to buy, what movies to watch, what music I might enjoy. I am aware of the subliminal influences in advertising on what music to listen to what TV Show to watch, yet I have a certain taste for the classics. My "Free Will" dictates what I choose to watch and what I listen to.
