Vocab #9



Plagiarize
In this representation, one sees the familiar face of Vanilla Ice. The height of his popularity is a plagiarism, that he even denies presently. In his song, "Ice Ice Baby," he takes the familiar motif of the Queen song "Another One Bites the Dust" and excuses his possession over his lick by claiming it had an extra beat in it. What fame does to the mind is one of humorous proportions.



Reciprocate
The human hug is a notion that the population takes for granted. The concept is that one throws one's arms around the other, and the other accepts. It is a great example of a reciprocated motion. One could easily throw it off or back away, as it is a very personal motion, but nonetheless is a great stride in the personal connection between people.



Empathy
Even when one feels the comforting of another, the only real consolation is a sense of empathy. People constantly push away help that has not experienced what one has gone through. This picture is a true representation of two people, both affected by the same event, yet one takes the role of consoler, and one consolee.
