When Techno starts talking about the essay, "A Modest Proposal", I had to write an essay on it using it as a base line and complaining about something I didn't like because it is entirely satirical.
A Modest Proposal was probably my favorite essay to read in AP Lang. There were a lot of hilarious essays that spawned from the assignment that went with it.
Katcie when I did it in AP lit, I wrote my knock off paper about how we should use people who die from speeding accidents as speed bumps to make people slow down. It was the weirdest paper I ever wrote and I got an A+. Reading everyone’s papers after that was a highlight of my high school career. Lmao.
An interesting thing about Bulbasaur is that it became a meme in my country, because "bulba" means potato in our language, and it's a stereotype that we basically only eat potatoes. So yeah, here's some fun trivia for ya. I bet that if Techno knew this, Bulbasaur WOULD be his favourite Pokemon after all.

I love that as soon as he mentioned eating babies I knew exactly what he was talking about. I had to read A Modest Proposal in 8th grade and I still remember it perfectly even after graduating high school and entering college
5:00 this was from “a modest proposal” by Jonathan Swift like techno said. Basically the whole thing was a satirical work roasting the British for how they treated the Irish by “proposing” that the British pay for and eat the Irish children so that the Irish have enough money to survive. It kind of backfired though, because the British thought it was hilarious and it became purely a comedy there.
honestly, the most important skill in high school is knowing how to stretch out simple concepts that can be explained in 30 seconds into a sizable essay. I am a sophomore and already feel over school. I can't wait to get out.
Looking back, I didn’t know that Techno was a RWBY fan, look at the crit effects on 6:35 (pause the video to see) and you can see Blake’s symbol as the crit image. Let’s also not forget he used Neo’s skin on a game of bedwars. Damn techno, das cool.

Pfft DUDE I know the exact essay he talked about, and I actually read it a few years back in my AP Lang class and honestly it was a banger, because it was obviously satire, but just the existentialism and nihilistic satire of eating children to help with starvation and famine is just hilarious and I love that he also got to read it XD
“I have been assured by a very knowing American of my acquaintance in London, that a young healthy child well nursed, is, at a year old, a most delicious nourishing and wholesome food, whether stewed, roasted, baked, or boiled; and I make no doubt that it will equally serve in a fricasie, or a ragoust.” ― Jonathan Swift, A Modest Proposal
