So any critiques would be most thanked!
I do say that sitting is for chairs, and chairs are for tables. Then why is the table used as a chair? Is the chair a pointless pile of wood? How so you say but look at it straight, for you may be sitting on a table now. We have always sat, or the sitting has always been a part of us. The answer that we seek lies herein. Before we never had chairs, simple as that; but we still sat at tables. You might not think we are any closer, but listen and listen well. The whole point of chairs was to be sat upon, at tables. Not so that we could sit ON the tables you silly duck! You who climb the chair to sit on the table are gravely mistaken. For the chair was built to be sat upon and the table built to be sat at. Thus the former, the chair, and the latter, the table, were both created for one singular purpose: to ease our sittings. But still we forget the aforementioned chair and just sit on the table. So shall we simply stop making the chairs for the purpose of using the tables as a seat or might we actually, each of us individuals listening now, use the chair for the reason it was created?

What class is this for? And what was the assignment? It's a little wordy, but I don't know what to say about it other than that because I don't know what it's for and what you were trying to achieve.

I'm with Endovia - it's a bit hard to critique this without knowing what the assignment is. I'm reading it in an almost humorous voice, if that helps... Not sure what you're trying to get across, but I'm getting a Harold Hill (The Music Man) vibe from it, like in Ya Got Trouble. On a more grammatical note, you're mostly good here. You don't need to point out that the former is the chair and the latter is the table, because that's what former and latter are for - so that you don't have to say the names again. Also, when you address someone (as in "you silly duck"), you need a comma - in this case, before, though if you started with "you silly duck," the comma would come after. "How so you say but look at it straight, for you may be sitting on a table now." - This sentence was hard to understand on the first read. Adding commas before and after "you say" would help, but you could also rephrase the whole sentence.

Yeah sorry i was really tired last night. So this is the final draft, thank you family members for checking it over at 10 o'clock at night, what would we ever do without family? So the only parameters of this were it had to be about something strange that happens in daily life or our life and then write a paragraph that is longer than 150 words.
