"Call a Fool a Fool" When Writing Your Essay.

When I write my first essay for my composition 1 class, I am going to keep in mind what I have learned from Roberts' "How to Say Nothing in 500 Words". One particular point that I am going to think about in my essay is when Roberts says to "call a fool a fool". This basically means that you shouldn't beat around the bush, don't be afraid to make your point. Sometimes, I will get worried about what my readers will think about my opinion, so I will try to sugar-coat the point I am trying to make. That is not going to happen in my Three Cups of Tea essay. I am going to write exactly what I feel and not feel like I have to hide it. If I don't write exactly how I feel, then I am not being 100% truthful, am I?
