Daily Rhetoric

In my daily routine I see tons of rhetoric. When I open my web browser I see adds for angry birds links for Facebook and Ebay. When I walk through the hall to my shower I see flyers for clubs, bbq's and other events. All of these examples want something from me whether they want me to buy, participate or come and get a bite to eat. I don't mind any of these things, I actually find them helpful and informative. I am one of those people who  get persuaded by ads pretty easily. If not for the flyer on the wall I would have no idea that there is going to be a bbq and I would've missed out on  a good time. I feel that most people are capable enough to make their own decisions and I view rhetoric more as a suggestion that I can take or reject. Even Death Valley is a form of rhetoric. It says that Clemson takes a lot of pride in our football team and they deserve to play in stadium built for champions.

Even someone's clothing or appearance is rhetoric. When I were my gym shirt I'm saying "Hey look at me I belong to this gym and I work out" or if I dress up nice in khakis and a button down I'm saying that I care about my appearance and I think that wherever I'm going is important.
