I’m a Jane Austen/Jane Eyre kind of girl  (Humor Quotes) Such techniques, including meta-discursive stuff, self-reference, irony, black humor, cynicism, grotesquerie and shock, it would be safe to say that television or televisual values rule the culture. Television is successfully using a lot of those same techniques but using them for a very different agenda, which is to sort of create an ethos and please people and to sell products to consumers  (Humor Quotes) I seem to have a one-track mind.
