401 Entries for “example”

  1. Sample. Doing things which is alike to the thing that was given. Related on such thing. I don’t know anymore cause Im panicking. Its an epitome.

  2. Why is it that even when you have an epic point to make, when you’re asked to give an example of a situation or a scenario when your point occurred you draw a blank like a no-account jackass?

  3. I was looking for an example of a “he said, she said” story. Not to cheat, but to get inspired. Than I thought why does it have to be he said, she said, why not he said, he said? Whatever I need to think of a conversation with some heavy subtext.

  4. An example of bitterness I had was not only the pain in my heart, but the wine in my mouth to dilute my hatred toward him. …Which could also be an example of how incredibly hard it was not to love him.

  5. Four peoplle joined the squad packing the restaurant = the waiter was cool and — foreign — who’re you lookin at y’ weeshite — jimmy red faced and sweating — just a visitor -over here to find out about how I should behave in Scotland..

  6. explaining something for example; this pen is black. aaaaaarh! does this make sense it’s too hard! my time is running out!

  7. A seagull floated by, making the most of the wind up here, soaring effortlesly, with just one errant feather giving a hint as to the ferocity of the wind at this altitude. The tower crane gave a fantastic view over the cities sprawl, muted sounds of activity from far below- not the most comfortable of places to be hanging upside down, but Clint had made a bit of a boob and was now being made an example of- loyalty is paramount amongst the Lions of the underworld.

  8. I love every word. I hate every word.

    The reason we’re on this site is because we absolutely love words. If the word “example” was the only word ever, those of you who hate this word, and think it’s a stupid word, would love this word. You’d probably make up new words from this word and show us many other examples, many other words.

    We love words…even the ones we hate.

    Word?

  9. there are few examples of the tree-beard wombat left in existence. these creatures are by far the most reclusive of species, seen in their own habitat only by a lucky few. they hunt worms and insects by night, and sleep in their underground nests by night.

  10. Once, someone had the nerve to say, “follow me, as I follow Christ.”

    Is nerve another word for courage?

    Since “example” typically represents part of the whole then…

    “…Lord have mercy on us as we trust the direction of our leaders who answer the call and accept the challenge to lead Your people.

    Amen.”

  11. Please give me an example of someone who’s lost their mind. I am a bad example. I have too much examples. We are all bad examples. we must become good examples. So much examples. reminds me of math. i hated math. too much examples.

  12. “Here’s an example.” He said with a soft smile on his face while writing it down lightly on the lined piece of paper. All she could do was stare at him — his facial features, his smile. “Maybe you’ll get it!” He said with confidence. “Okay here.” He shifted the paper towards her, “do you get it now?” The girl immediately shook her head. How could she? She wasn’t paying attention at all.

    Although she knew that she wasn’t paying attention, she couldn’t help but feel stupid. The guy she was in love with for so many years was infront of her, teaching her Chemistry and all she was able to do was blank out.

  13. What examples have you needed in your life to make a difference? What examples have you left? Has there been any particular example that you can recall… that made the difference for you. Examples are examples. They have no meaning if you don’t learn form them.

  14. “Here’s an example.” He said with a soft smile on his face while writing it down lightly on the piece of paper. “Maybe you’ll get it!” He smiled at the girl softly and continued writing. “Here”. He shifted the paper over to her. “Do you get it?” The girl shook her head. “Not at all..” she said quietly.
    She felt so stupid. The girl she was in love with for so many years was infront of her, teaching her Chemistry and all she was able to do was blank out.

  15. Well, this site is setting a poor example by repeating prompts to unique IP addresses. I don’t say ‘hello’ twice to new acquaintances.

  16. I am not an example. I am a free spirit. No one should follow the way I live. But I love it anyway. Who cares about being an example or a role model when you can live the life you want to live? I’m me and I am happy. Others should find their own examples. Or better yet, just live their own lives the way they want to.

  17. for example, in 1997, when gordon whiting went on the first expedition into the whiteness, there was little call for exploration. After his tragic disappearance, dozens of efforts have been launched to further explore this unknown realm.

  18. I’m always trying to set a good example. it’s the reason I don’t swear, why I don’t party, why I’m kind to most people I see, why my social networking sites and immaculate and display good and proper behavior. I want to be good for people who need me to be good. And that doesn’t mean my parents. It’s not my grandmother, or my teachers. It’s for the kids. The one’s younger than I who look up to my example.

  19. Follow my example. Do as I say. Should I do as you do? Who is the best example? God? Parents? Political or athletic heroes? Do we have to follow an example?

  20. “Now, if you’ll excuse me, I should be getting back to what I was doing.

    Where was I?…Oh yes…’and Lord…'”

    So Chad went about doing good, for example, making two lunches each day, one for him and the other for the poor homeless guy who sat begging near the bridge where he was employed.

  21. example. There are many examples in life that help you clarify your understanding of the subject of matter. Examples can range from similies and analogies in al

  22. For example–there it was, staring me in the ace, a clue as to the way I was supposed to achieve this miracle of linguistic structure, and yet all I could do was stare helplessly at the page as I watched all of my teachings from the previous year fly through the open window.

  23. example is an instance of what is being discussed.. get it? we use it in many sentences giving and explaining instances.well that’s it from me!

  24. Here’s an example of a b***** thing to do. Care more about the guy sleeping next to you on the bus than your friend crying across the aisle. Examples don’t really work though, they exclude the completeness of the full story. It’s hard to grasp all the facets of an encounter when using it as an example to illustrate another point. Yes?

  25. Examples. Everyone wants them in life, I mean, how great would it be if life gave you examples? It helps, so you know what you’re doing, what people are talking about, but sometimes, it just doesn’t. You have to figure it out by yourself.

  26. Cram it in just one example
    plant soil sample
    the life all got trampled
    just before the handle got pulled

  27. She was staring at the board, at chalk-dust and scribble. The problem there wasn’t the same. The example had shown something different. This was new. This wasn’t right. Her professor was waiting. Everyone was waiting. She coughed and felt her eyes sting.

  28. It comes before the theory. It is the root of all theory, an example is. It is what connects directly to life making the abstract tangible and believable. For example ——-

  29. I trample example samples. Stampede rampage can’t handle the ram’s page. Raffle the rifle

  30. “I’m going to make an example of you, here and today.”

    I backed away, my breath coming in short, choppy gasps.

    “This’ll teach you to meddle in a man’s game. Things were going just fine until you showed up. Now you’ve gone and riled up the females…”

  31. An example about the word example. I don’t even know what to write, i feel like i’m supposed to write something witty and clever but i’m blank. An example of not knowing what to write is what i just demonstrated?

  32. Example.
    This is a stupid word.
    Why the hell would I follow the examples that most people set for me.
    Most poeple are pretty good at failing.
    Just like I am.
    Examples never work because they cannot prepare one for every possible situation/

  33. I already did this one.
    I do not feel like doing it again.
    I am not a huge fan of this word.
    EXAMPLE.
    Its anooying because,
    most of the examples in the world we should disreguard.
    there are very few good ones.

  34. they made an example of me. if someone wasn’t going to follow the rules, they’d get left hung out to dry. no one had to do anything, they just kept watching me, and they learned from my mistake. a perfect example.

    by cheez on 03.05.2011
  35. There was no example for how I was supposed to use it. No rules, no guidelines, certainly no hints. I was on my own, once again.

    It didn’t surprise me in the least. I was, after all, pretty independent.

    by Megan on 03.05.2011
  36. for example, i ‘ll show you a demostration. science, math. teaching learning.

  37. If I had to give an example of every concept I’d ever thought of, it would suck up my whole life. However, having to think of an example to every concept I’d thought up would require me to think it through and decide if it had any base in reality. A good experience for thinking, I’d say. An example of this would be this paragraph. An example for thinking things through.

    by Avalon on 03.05.2011
  38. for example, I am me. I am not anyone else. It is just me. In my smallness. In my bignes. In my aloneness. you are not great. in this very big way you are not great. eh is great in his flannel and his sweetness. I miss this all. This plunging horrible pit. i hate you. every part.

    by jenna on 03.05.2011
  39. give me an example and I’ll run with it. I’ll run and then I’ll fly with it. I may run and then cry with it, and if we’re lucky I’ll die with it. I’ll be your example if you’ll be mine. For example, there is ample room to suffer, if you don’t give me a chance here.

  40. “For example,” the teacher droned. I wasn’t paying attention. I was simply just doodling on my page which was supposed to contain math problems. Arithmetic was never my strong point. I preferred things like English and the arts. History and all that jazz, y’know?
