PH1000, Being Bad intro


I thought it would be nice to start off with a quote:

"It seemed the world was divided into good and bad people. The good ones slept better... while the bad ones seemed to enjoy the waking hours much more."
Woody Allen

This blog is to reflect on and respond to lectures from the module Being Bad, and also for anything else 'bad' related.

The aims of the module are: to investigate the nature, place and meaning of immoral, dangerous, unhealthy, unreasonable or imprudent practices, behaviour and lifestyles and to consider critically questions about them, especially ‘what is to be said in their favour?' and ‘what attracts people to them?’

Naturally, this type of module calls for some kind of field trip. My ideas for a field trip would include a trip to Cadbury's World, as chocolate is a guilty pleasure for most people; A trip Amsterdam, because of it's notorious reputation; alternatively a night out visiting various pubs and bars around the city would be sure to provide a number of opportunities for behaving in a bad way.
