@GMaLit18 @IrisLitTweets I agree with Gloria. The blue envelope represents the safety Adam feels with Fiona, how he is able to divulge his innermost feelings to her.

[Ashley Yang @ashyang_]

@caitlynchrist99 Maybe it’s a reference to their marriage- how marriage is supposed to be a steady stable thing and how Jack promised Fiona to be faithful, and yet, like all things, the marriage fell apart.

[Ashley Yang @ashyang_]

Especially when neither of them give what the other desires, for jack, passion, for Fiona, sense of security and following the rules.

[Ashley Yang @ashyang_]

It’s interesting to note how different Jack and Fiona are, and how their different styles of music represent that.For jack, Jazz: passion, freedom, living in the moment.For Fiona,classical music: rules, strict, controlled. Of course these two musics will clash sometimes#Laylit18

@literallynanae You also have to take into consideration hiwninvasive the procedure is, how much it costs, and the religious viewpoint the person has. It might save his life, but it follows a lot of “if’s” and “maybe’s” as well as going against religious beliefs.

@ZoeVallejo3 @MelissaSunm @GrantDong2 I disagree. The way she responds to the question shows enough about how she has been acting the past couple of months, perhaps years. Even when asked she responds coldly. The emotional distance is just another thing that the husband has already confirmed and now reconfirmed.

@EshaanSoman I think you can have an idea of it.For instance, I have never had kids before in my life but I can imagine the pain and grief a parent might feel in losing https://t.co/bVIywqWuQI all comes down to sympathy and https://t.co/PSi4tRG9WR’ll never feel or know the true extent

[Ashley Yang @ashyang_]

@marissa_osofsky It can also show the necessity of balance in ones life. You can’t ice your whole life to your job without sacrificing something else, and vice versa.

[Ashley Yang @ashyang_]

@EmilyJolly_lit A part of it, I believe, is also because she feels betrayed by her husband. He already moved on to another girl without having asked her how she is. Being petty is part of it, and since she’s already hurt by this fact, she’s more unwillingly to be vulnerable to him again.

When Meursault accepts his punishment #Laylit18

[Ashley Yang @ashyang_]

@EshaanSoman I agree. If you can’t follow simple conventions like not murdering a man, why not be punished? Yes, in the end life is meaningless, but if life is so important in the eyes of an existionalist, then that makes Meursault’s crime all the more worse

[Ashley Yang @ashyang_]

@GrantDong2 Perhaps one could argue that if he feels such a lack of emotion for death and that only sun could tick him off, he could easily kill another man. Then, his verdict isn’t all that unjust

[Ashley Yang @ashyang_]

@RConroy413 I agree. Religion seems to be a way to ameliorate the fears of the common man about death, so when death becomes unimportant so does religion

[Ashley Yang @ashyang_]

@GMaLit18 I know but humans are complex animals- we need at least some sort of structure to function. I mean even other animals has social structures. So, in this case, reverting to the bare minimum would mean working against years and years of evolution and genetic programming

[Ashley Yang @ashyang_]

I find it hard to believe in existentialism. How can you only care about survival? Humans are meant to be social animals, creating bonds and relationships are integral to surviving. Is it possible to be so apathetic and not have some sort of psychological reasoning? #Laylit18

[Ashley Yang @ashyang_]

@litwithkale Perhaps this shows the reasons for absurdism.The hypocrisy is apparent,you get mad when someone cheats but it’s okay for you to cheat. Thus, concepts of “cheating” and “loyalty” are meaningless because they are social constructs which people manipulate in order to suit thenselves
