I feel that these story's enhance this novel dramatically. The Waterman story especially sticks out in my mind illuminating the reasons why someone would do something perceived to be a suicide mission. These story's show that Chris wasn't and still isn't alone in his view on the world. For example, in chapter 14 Krakauer illuminates his own similar views on the world and the wild, thus allowing us to conclude his bias on the story of Chris Mccandless. These story's offer credibility to the argument that Chris wasn't just some special crazy person who went into the wild, but one among many who feel society is hiding the beauty in living.

Taylor Swift is the most amazing artist on the planet. But seriously though, if she can captivate ME, then she is doing something right. I honestly can not pinpoint WHY that is, other than I feel a deep spot in my psyche that is penetrated like no other music has before. Obviously her hotness factors in, but there are plenty of beautiful women across the world who might be hotter than T-SWIFT.

So no my opinion did NOT even come close to changing. The article was obviously written with a jealous tinge that bothered me more than the monotonous topics of Taylor Swifts lyrics ever have. I agree though, more worldly lyrics would make me like Taylor more, but her sound is unmatched.
