Facts/truths:Observed
Concrete data.
“MOM: Do you hear that?
ME: Yes”
“All I know is I am 6’1”. I was standing on the road and the water line was like 3-4 foot below the road. This thing was about eye level if not taller and twice as wide as I was at the time. Just massive”
Facts/truths:Supposed
Probable data.
MOM: What is that?
ME: Must be a deer.
MOM: No, it sounds like its walking.
ME: Yes, a deer walking through the water, you can hear its steps.
MOM: No, it sounds like it's walking on two feet, cause a deer has four legs and you’ll be able to hear them.
ME: I don’t know, sounds like a deer to me.
MOM: Listen closely; whatever it is is walking on two legs coming this way.
Transivity
If A=B and B=C, then A=C
“This area is not known for bears, I do not think. I never saw one, but if a bear can walk on two legs thru a creek and turn and walk up the embankment on two legs, then I saw a bear.”
Space
Making it feel Close
“Again, It was dusk at this point, this thing was literally 20 ft, in front of us in the wide open.”
Example:Single
One event is an example.
“After we got home I never talked to my mom or dad about it. I end up coming back to Oklahoma after the weekend was over. None of us ever talked about it again after that moment. Not sure why to me it was like a distant memory that quickly.”

This is probably one of the longest stories on this sight. But you found a lot a great stuff to use in your thesis. if you think it is true or not I find it intrguing that he remembers this conversation word for word 20 years later. I personally would not be able to do this. But he uses lots of fallacies and rhetorical arguments to tell his story so you have a lot to work with and then some. I would argue against it personally. I have to see it to believe it and this story almost seems to accurate 20 years later so how much was added or forgotten?
ReplyDeleteThank you for your feedback! I agree with you that it seems a little sketchy that he remembers so much after twenty years.
