     For the first ad, I believe the audience is all non- iphone users. At the end of this ad they say if it's not an iphone, it's not an iphone. They are telling anyone without an iphone that having an iphone is a lot better and that anyone with an iphone loves it. In the second ad, the audience is men ages 20 to around 40 years old. The men are chasing after the woman but in the end she was using a smart TV. So using the woman to advertise the TV will attract more men to buy the smart TV's. The third ad I think is aiming toward the audience of parents. They use the little boy running away so that he can ride in the Subaru to show that children will love the new car. This will move parents to look into buying the new Subaru.

Truth or Dare?




                        Jail is a cold, dark place where prisoners just sit in a cell, day in and day out. Some of them know why they are there, others do not have any remembrance. I know these things because it is currently happening to me.

                       I peeled my tired, achey body off of my coffin like bed and placed my head in my hands. How did I get here? The last thing I remember was being at my friend's house playing cards. I was not drinking, or smoking. I did not do any type of drug. Then how was I here? I stood and began to pace the length of my tight, cold cell. I felt something moving up and down in my jean pockets as I walked. I stopped and emptied the contents out onto the floor.

                       I had five items placed on the floor. There was a dark, knit hat, a long, purple leash, twenty dollars in cash, a miniature, clear water gun, and what looked like a small, brown Milk bone dog treat. What in the world did I do last night? I looked like I had just come back from a pet store. Oh no I started to remember what had happened.

                       My friends and I were playing truth or dare, I was dared to do something utterly stupid as a prank. But it did not go as planned. I was pressured to run in to a pet store with a hat on and a fake gun and demand to have all of the money from the register. We said this would be a prank because one of our friends was working that night at the store and we thought it would be funny to scare the pants off of her, Little did I know how she would react.

                       I ran in to the store with my knit hat on and pointed my gun at my friend and yelled for all the money that she had. I could barely keep from laughing as I stood and watched my friend freak out. I should have just stopped right then, but I did not. How much farther could I take this? My friend tossed through the cash register to pull out all of the money. She handed me over a twenty dollar bill. I looked at her and asked if this was all that she had. She replied that they had taken most of the money to the bank already, but that I could have anything else I liked from the store. What the heck did I want from a pet store? I had to keep this going it was way to humorous. So I walked around the store quickly to find something else to take with me. But when I looked back and saw how terrified my friend was I realized I no longer wanted this to go on, So I turned around and stuffed the first thing that I saw in to my pocket. I think that was the purple leash. I turned to start bolting out the door, but before I could get out I was hit it the head with something. All I saw were fuzzy, stars and I tall Sheriff standing over me.

                       Did she really call the cops on me? Of course she did, she had no idea that it was me. How could I be so stupid? I thought this would be funny, but now I am sitting on the floor of a jail cell unaware of what will happen next. All of this happened over one, single, silly little dare.
