Using the elements of descriptive writing, as Carlin does in his essay, argue that someone you know or our society in general has a problem with “stuff.” The first assignment thesis might go like this: “There can be no doubt, our society has a problem with too much stuff.” In the conclusion, you will come back to this thesis and conclude something about all this stuff we have. For the thesis here, I might work a conclusion around the idea that it’s no wonder we spend so much money trying to find ourselves; we’re simply lost in our stuff.
