All people have played Simon says in their live. It's a very common and simple game that all of us used to play  and liked. But why do we do what Simon says? Why cannot it be someone else who tells us what to do? We really don't know it has always been this way.

Parodies

I have always been interested in parodies. But, what is a parody?

A parody is a kind humorous imitation of something. It could be a film, famous person, a book...anything. Recently many parodies have been made, and they have become very famous. Nowadays, almost all films and  musical videos have a parody. For example, here you have a parody of the blockbuster Catching Fire, the second part of the well-known film series "The Hunger Games".

I found this video really amusing. Although it is very simple, it makes you laugh, or at least smile. Sometimes the simplest things are the funniest.

I think that it is funny and entertaining to watch parodies, because sometimes the imitation is so good that you never forget the film, video or whatever the parody was about. It is said that sometimes the parody is more popular than what is being parodied. Many people get annoyed because of this. They say that the parodies decrease the parodied things reputation. But in my opinion, this is better than nothing. As is said many times, it is better to be talked badly about something than not at all, isn't it?
