"Now look, the practical, the sensible
solution is to wear a fantasía.
Tonight you simply can't afford to be an eyesore."
(Pink Dog)
First thing I thought of: Victoria's Secret. Their trademark is a pink dog. Swiftly I realized this was nowhere near Victoria's Secret(I knew that at the start, fyi). This is a satire that reminds me a lot of an essay we read last year in Mrs. Sander's class. It was a satire that was trying to persuade Irish farmers to sell their children to butchers because childmeat is a delicacy. The quote I chose from Pink Dog highlights the rediculousness that is being implied. It's about a poor, naked dog that needs food. Food and caring for her puppies is top on her priority list. She "simply can't afford" anything, let alone good looks! It's a satire to highlight the importance of helping the poor!
