curley is named the disrespectful guy in the novel because he lacks important traits that u need to suceed in life. He is very rude when he communicates with others, always a rude perosn to his wife, and is described as a "terrible person". On the other hand, Slim is the opposite of curley. Slim is very generous, loving, smsrt, carming, always willing to help anyone who has trouble in their lifes, does really well working, and is an all around respectful person. Also this is an off topic statment, but anyone has flappy birds, my god its such an additing game, if those of u dont have, get it. Its really addicting
In "Of Mice and Men," a swamper is a slang term for a janitor or a handyman who performs various cleaning and maintenance tasks on a ranch. The character Candy in the novel is an example of a swamper.
Curley's wife is implying that Lennie got the bruises on his face from fighting with Curley. She recognizes that Curley is quick to pick fights with the workers on the ranch.
Do you mean after the fight with Lennie. He is described as - ''Curley was flopping like a fish on a line, and his closed fist was lost in Lennie's hand. ...''
because curly likes to pick on guys that are bigger than him because if he wins he looks really good, and even if he loses he still looks good due to the fact that the other guy is bigger :)
Steinback want us to think about curley and his wife because his wife is a tart,every men of the ranch thinks that way.She always flirt with other guys although her hushband curley always care about her & wants to be with her but can't find her.Moreover curley's wife spend her time flirting with other guys of the ranch specially slim.And whenever she finds a chance to flirt and to show her body she pushed her body forward so that her body can be seen by everybody.This shows that she use her body for attention.On the other hand about curley he always wants to pick a fight with big guys which he hate because he's a small guy. Secondly I think the reason beside this is that curley wife wants all the other guys would pay attention to her and about curley,he hates big guys which makes him angry and always wants to pick a fight with them.
Curley thinks Lennie's smiling is a sign of agreeing with the rest of the characters in the bunk house when they are all laughing at him. Curley also simply saw this as a chance to attack Lennie because being a small man, he had what the characters call "small man syndrome" and likes to pick on big guys, "Kinda mad at them 'cause they ain't a big guy."
no most of the geman sherpherds do not pick fights
That's my homework too :O
George worries that Curley is confrontational and aggressive, and may pose a threat to Lennie due to his small stature and tendency to pick fights. George is concerned that Lennie's lack of understanding of the situation could lead to trouble with Curley.
Curley promises to tell people that he injured his hand in a machine, as a way to hide the fact that he got it crushed in a fight with Lennie. This is to save face and avoid embarrassment for losing a fight to someone bigger and stronger than him.
Curley reacts to Lennie's silence negatively and try's to pick a fight with him. Curley probably figures that Lennie is silent that he is shy and dose not do well in fights. Since Curley is small and insecure, he figures he could take on the silent big guy and make him feel better about himself. This reveals that Curley is nothing more then a little bully.
I had the same problem. You pick the guy that loves you more. Pick the guy that fights the hardest for you.
