    Jakey: I think that o'brien is a member of the thought police, due to his odd behavior. By his writing his adress directly in front of the telescreen, and his wanting him to come by his house, he obviously, compared to the others, is a member.

Some days we both ride home in total silence, but this past Monday, he wanted to talk to me about his dodgeball experience in PE. This is his first semester having PE, and he seems to have mixed feelings about it. (I did too in middle school.) Our conversation started with, "Mom, I think the world hates me." "Well that's an awful thing to say. Why would you think that?" "Today in PE we were playing dodgeball. I threw and threw and threw and I never could hit that stupid cone! And then, FINALLY, I hit it. I wasn't even aiming for it; I was throwing it at a kid. But when I hit it, i
