Blog Post 2 Mostly what I have learned about arguments is the technical jargon associated with it, such as the pathos, ethos, etc. In the 29 years I have been alive I feel like I have a pretty broad understanding of what an argument is.  People can pick out technical aspects of what an argument is all day but when it comes down to it an argument is almost primal instinct in a way, it comes from the core of our being. When we hear someone doesn't believe what we believe, or doesn't agree with what we agree with its in our DNA to challenge that person, a lot of times even physically.  I feel I had a pretty good understanding of what an argument was coming in to this class, and now we will dive deep into what forms an argument, what makes an argument valid, and how to present your argument in a healthy way.  But this is just my opinion, if you don't like it... TOUGH.

Blog post 1 The birth of social media over the last 20 years or so has shaped the world in un-imaginable ways. From keeping tabs on your friends and family, to downloading and listening to music for free, most of us have something we "need" to check everyday such as FaceBook, Twitter, Instagram, the list goes on and on and on and.... well you get the point.  While we all think social media is this no strings attached place we can post all our opinions and views, it is a double edged sword. Say you visited Las Vegas and partied until the sun came up, i'm sure your friends would love to see your pictures but so would future employers... Think about that. You apply for a job 3 years after you enjoyed your time in Vegas and your would-be boss is seeing all your drunken pics and videos of you letting it all hang out on Instagram.  Just understand that social media is awesome but deserves respect.   

Hello, my name is Josh Kimbrell, I am a student at Georgia Gwinnett College.  A cool fact about me is I attended Georgia Perimeter College when it was in this same building before GGC was ever here! I bought my second car last year in 2016 and I included a picture of it below. 2005 BMW 330i ZHP
