See the Google Document I've shared with you for more detailed instructions. Below is my own example. At bottom, are links to some other student examples.

**jocular:** --//adjective//; given to, characterized by, intended for, or suited to joking or jesting

When I started thinking about what //jocular// meant, I thought about irony. Things that are ironic are often funny--not always, but often. So, I thought to myself, "What do I think is ironic AND funny?" The irony of the American Diet came to mind. I tried to be funny by "skinny-fying" the Diet Coke can and using the "comic" effect on the apple pie. Additionally, I thought that we watch a whole lot of TV, too--so that's a sort of "diet." So, the idea that our culture has a high diet of TV and thinks that skimping out on sugars found in soda makes it OK to eat apply pie...well, that's just plane //jocular.//
