Oh so wrong jerky, so very wrong. So here it is, how anticlimactic. Well I'm off to get hammered, peace people. Oh right question, If you could travel to any planet (and be fully immune to all the lethal things up in there) to look around which would you go to? doesn't have to be in this solar system.

Amethyst...amy...are you jealous of our little love affair? You seem to be taking a great interest in this...I wouldn't have brought it up but I vaguely recall you commenting on the matter a while back...seems like classic projection to me.

I'm writing a poem about it, that's how much. What is your...favorite fast food burger...and also fries? You should show me the end-product who knows, maybe I can give you some pointers on the proper formatting of a poem. I think a sonnet format would be more appropriate as opposed to a limerick . . .

I have a research essay due, and it's one of those more informative ones "what were the pros and cons of this_____" and I don't know how to make a thesis statement out of that. Does every essay need to have a thesis statement? Should my thesis statement be simply "In this essay I will discuss the pros and cons of _____"?

But I used to write a lot, so I guess I'm semi-good? Yeah you definitely need a thesis statement--which basically is the "message" or purpose of your essay, and it's short and concise. It should also be supported by evidence of some sort. I can help you write one but you have to tell me what the purpose of your essay is... like what is the essay question your prof gave you, in full, so I can have an idea of what you're trying to write? btw I wasn't serious =P Why are you taking an English class if you can't write a thesis statement? Just curious Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nono I'm a good essay writer, it's just when I'm not being asked a direction question "What was the significance of _____" where I can take a clear stance and make an argument for something, I get a little confused. I guess all my thesis statement could possibly be in the instance I have described would be to say that that there are many advantages and disadvantages of *my topic*, and then describe how I am going to outline them in the essay. Basically, if I'm being asked to talk about the advantages and disadvantages of something, what could my argument possibly be, other than to say "There ARE advantages and disadvantages, and I will now describe them to you"?

Isn't the type of essay you're trying to write a persuasive type? I think that's what they're called. I think this link will be really helpful http://word-crafter.net/CompI/argumentI.html Your thesis statement should answer the question posed. So if the question asked was "What was the significance of . . . ", your thesis statement should try to answer that i.e. "The significance of X is . . . " or "X event is significant for XYZ reason" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The topic I have been given is "Discuss the advantages and disadvantages of X system of government in X country". I don't know how to take a clear stance on that, because I am going to be talking about multiple advantages and multiple disadvantages, so how the hell am I supposed to derive a single thesis from that?

Your thesis statement should just answer that question. Even if it's an 8 page long essay and I'm going to be doing like 5 advantages and 5 disadvantages, you're saying I should just list them all in the order that they will appear in my thesis statement? Does my thesis statement have to be one sentence? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know how to take a clear stance on that, because I am going to be talking about multiple advantages and multiple disadvantages, so how the hell am I supposed to derive a single thesis from that? Ah I see. Well first, you need to take a stand/position on that question. What do you think of the system of government in X country? Do you think it's a good one, with many positives or do you think it's a bad one? From there you can easily derive a thesis statement.

Awww **** of course! Why the hell was I thinking that the prof literally wanted me to list a bunch of pros and cons and that's it? Thanks, I knew I was missing something. Must have been the way the question was worded that was confusing me, or I'm just stupid, but for the sake of my self-esteem I will go with the former.

I didn't want him to know I left it this late:). Either way, if only for the sake of my image (I'm doing well), I didn't want to have to ask, twas embarrassing (so I bring it to a public internet forum:D ), I knew it was something simple that I was missing.
