 Tags: psychology/social psychology, social construction, theory, commuters, cooley, integrators, identity maintenance, looking-glass self, symbolic interactionism, 00 to 05 mins Year: 1995 Length: 0:45 Access: YouTube Summary: In this clip from the Seinfeld episode, "The Pool Guy" (Season 7, Episode 8), a panic-stricken George complains to Jerry about "worlds colliding" when "Independent George" (as single/identity presented to friends) may meet "Relationship George" (as 'boyfriend' to Susan/identity presented to potential and/or current partners) at a social event wherein both social networks are present. If such an event were to happen, then according to character George Costanza, "Independent George" would cease to exist (or visa versa). This clip serves as a great example of identity maintenance and symbolic interaction, including Cooley's looking-glass self (where George imagines his appearance differently across difference audiences). It is also an excellent illustration of Wayne Brekhus' work regarding identity commuters (or "chameleons") as explained in his book Peacocks, Chameleons and Centaurs: Gay Suburbia and the Grammar of Social Identity.

I just want to say Thank You to everyone who supported me through the years. My name is Manuel Franco, New Berlin, Wisconsin. My story of how I won the Powerball lottery of $768.4M is a bit of a tale. I have been playing Powerball tickets for 6 years now since I turned 18. I bought my first ticket on my 18 birthday. I was feeling very lucky that day because I had contacted Dr. Odunga Michael to help me with the winning Powerball numbers. I really had that great great feeling that I looked at the camera wanting to wink at it. I only did a tiny part of it and trusted him. He gave me the numbers after I played a couple other tickets along with it for $10. I checked my ticket after the winnings came online and saw the numbers were correct including the Power play. I screamed for about 10 minutes because it felt like a dream. I had won $768.4M. You can check my winning testimony with the lottery officials just with my name search. Thank you Dr Odunga. Well, his email is odungaspelltemple@gmail.com and you can also call or Whats-app him at +2348167159012 so you guys can contact him Leave a Reply. |
