Ponyboy is different from the others. He isn’t just another greaser. He isn’t like the other greasers. He’s kind-hearted, educated, smart, respectful and a good friend. When the children were burning up in that church Ponyboy was the first one who jumped in to save them.
Another example of Pony showing bravery is when he went and fought the Socs in a huge fight called a rumble. Even though Pony was youmger and smaller then the rst of the guys and sick,he was still ready to back up his friends. Another character trait that Ponyboy showed in the story was uniqueness. One example of his uniqueness was on page 178 where Johnny,Pony's bestfriend said,"Like the way you dig sunsets Pony." This shows that unlike the other Greasers, Pony takes time to look at the glowing sunset.

It is a form of hyperbole because it is exaggerating what is going to happen.

Later after the fire and rescue, his talk with Randy leads him to understand that the Socs are just people who happen to be rich. Everyone has the same feelings and
Both men (or I should say children) are both spoiled rotten, immature, and rely on their parent as if they were an infant teething. Having no choice in the matter and no jobs at that, they are forced to get along with each other or drive each other crazy, along with their parents. Step Brothers is probably one of my favorite movies of all times because of the hilarious story-line behind the whole movie, the rolling on the floor laughing dialogue between all of the characters, and just the all-star cast that supports this movie that makes it one of the funniest and best comedy movies of all time. The story-line behind the movie is absolutely great and hilarious. Brennan Huff (Will Ferrell) and Dale Doback (John C. Riley) are both two forty year old men who still live with their parent.
