  7. Pages 121-180 • The personification shows that Sodapop was none stop with his wisecracks and clowning ways. I believe your eardrums can’t brake but they can go out so I figured the music was just so loud he couldn’t hear other people talk, so that shows he was annoyed. These moments show that they have good times, but there is always something that might annoy you during your good times that you are having.
