Jared Guy, Kinda A Scholar...

    Jared Guy, Kinda a Scholar...

    So the reason that I am typing this post, is because my professor is requiring us to be familiar with blogging a type of content. The assignment is listed as "scholarly blog post," and as I read through the title of the assignment and then the description, I thought to myself

    "Who am I to be considering myself a scholar,"

    I haven't published any books. I haven't won any awards for being a genius. I haven't really achieved anything that is considered scholarly like, hell my bootlegged grammarly subscription has stopped working and i'm kind of struggling to type my way through this post. Hence if you see any obvious typos in this post. 

    But, as I thought about the idea of being a scholar, and thought about what Dr. Vrooman has told us in class, essentially saying that as students doing in depth research for projects, and building literature reviews and coming to conclusions like a scholar would, we need to stop down playing ourselves. 

    Thats really stuck with me. 

    I've done all these things, I've created a Senior Thesis, I've conducted interviews, I've created understandable presentations, I've done smart people things that many people can't say they've done. To some degree I am a sort of a scholar, kinda. 

    My name is Jared Guy and I am a kinda a scholar. As I build this Blog, I assume you will see the process for my Final Project for class. 

    This has been fun.Until my next blog post,

    Communications Major at Texas Lutheran University,

PS: Enjoy this picture of me and my daughter.....

  Social Media Phenomena: Lil Chucky   By Jared Guy     Introduction     Before we get into things, I would like to say that I had a lot of fun researching this phenomenon. I g enuinely believe it’s some of the best work I’ve submitted . I want to introduce you to one of the most entertaining and interesting characters I’ve stumbled upon in a while. Self-proclaimed, “Youngest to do it,” “Running up them bandies ,” and the one that's “ Gonna put Arizona on the Map,” ladies and gentlemen , meet LIL CHUCKY!   As you can see Lil Chucky is clearly a minor, and if you noticed the kids behind him, they  look like they just left their local middle school and are waiting around for their parents.

After doing a deep dive analysis and literature review over Lil Chucky, I found out that Lil Chucky is being exploited by a bad older influence for his virality. Let's ...

  Alrigth guys, who ever is reading,  I've finally accumulated a literature review that I used to analyze the social media phenomena LIL CHUCKY  This will be a quick post, Im just going to insert my literature review below. Lets do this... Lil Chucky literature review Similar Phenomena     After stumbling onto Lil Chucky and watching the way he presents himself, ten toes down gangster who never snitches, who will take your girlfriend in an instant , and is willing to take on anyone that crosses his path , the demeanor and presentation reminded me that of Lil Tay. Lil Tay was a viral sensation around 2018 and deemed herself the “youngest flexer .” Lil Tay was usually seen flaunting wads of cash and shouting at the world that the rest of us were b roke and needed to acquire more money. Like Lil Chucky her main platform was Instagram and the videos that she would post would gain huge amounts of traffic and int eractions . One video reaching almost 13 mill...
