Hop Frog Argumentative Essay

However the unnamed king hated both of them, he made him drink the wine which lead to Hop Frog’s absurdity.

Sometimes, though, he pushes Ponyboy too hard, which Soda constantly has to remind him of “...when Darry hollers at you, he don’t mean nothin’.” (Hinton, 17) Soda is trying to remind Pony that Darry doesn’t mean all of the things he says when he is angry, and that he only yells because he is concerned about how Ponyboy acts. Sometimes, though, Ponyboy is too reckless, and it pushes Darry over the edge. Darry becomes too critical, and it lowers his self-esteem. For example, when Darry scolds Ponyboy for coming inside too late, “I felt hot tears of anger and frustration rising. ‘I said I didn’t mean to!’” (Hinton, 50), Ponyboy feels as though Darry doesn’t love him, and that Darry criticizes him more than he deserves.

Slapstick comedy also brings out Sebastian and Olivia’s identities. “Cesario” placates Feste’s wordplay and desperately avoids fighting with Sir Toby whereas Sebastian jumps in ready to fight two men in the same breath. Similarly, Olivia thinks she needs to help the previously weak “Cesario” and relishes in an attempt to control such a malleable young man. Ironically, she immediately blames the violence on Sir Toby which would align with “Cesario’s” disposition but it is actually Sebastian causing trouble. Speaking of irony, a few lines before meeting Olivia, Sebastian asks “Are all the people mad” (25) before quickly devolving into the very madness he spoke against when he says “If it be thus to dream, still let me sleep!” (60).
