Subject: I wonder why...
I wonder why cows are called stupid.
By Hastuharu Sohma
Some days I wonder why Cows are called Stupid. I wonder why you use the word 'cow' as an insult. it honestly doesn't make sense. The idea of a cow being smart intruiges us all. But the question really is why can't cows be smart? Has the idea of cows pretending to be smart ever crossed our minds? Some might question why they prentend to be stupid if being smart could steer them away from the on-comming deaths. Maybe they decided to pretend to be stupid because they want to die because of all the ridicule against them. The constant jokes, being called 'fat' and 'stupid' and lets not forget, 'cowtipping.'
I decided to interview a cow and see its affects of being called stupid, and fat. It kept chewing its grass obviously depressed by my taunting. I, then, tried to tip over the cow. It wouldn't budge. Obviously overcomming my constant riducule and finally standing up for itself. If we learn that cows are just like humans and to learn to stop calling them stupid, then we can all learn not to sterotype things.
Grade: B-
Notes: I would have given it an A, for a wonderful paper on different perspectives, but the paper was on cows so it was hard trying to take it seriously. Other than that wonderfully written!
