Rhetoric is the art of persuasion. It is one of the three ancient arts of discourse (trivium) of classical antiquity, along with grammar and logic/dialectic. As an academic discipline within the humanities, rhetoric aims to study the techniques that speakers or writers use to inform, persuade, and motivate their audiences.sa Rhetoric also provides heuristics for understanding, discovering, and developing arguments for particular situations.
Aristotle defined rhetoric as "the faculty of observing in any given case the available means of persuasion", and since mastery of the art was necessary for victory in a case at law, for passage of proposals in the assembly, or for fame as a speaker in civic ceremonies, he called it "a combination of the science of logic and of the ethical branch of politics". Aristotle also identified three persuasive audience appeals: logos, pathos, and ethos. The five canons of rhetoric, or phases of developing a persuasive speech, were first codified in classical Rome: invention, arrangement, style, memory, and delivery.
From Ancient Greece to the late 19th century, rhetoric played a central role in Western education and Islamic education in training orators, lawyers, counsellors, historians, statesmen, and poets.

In rhetoric, antanaclasis (/æntəˈnækləsɪs, ˌæntænəˈklæsɪs/; from the Greek: ἀντανάκλασις, antanáklasis, meaning "reflection", from ἀντί anti, "against", ἀνά ana, "up" and κλάσις klásis "breaking") is the literary trope in which a single word or phrase is repeated, but in two different senses. Antanaclasis is a common type of pun, and like other kinds of pun, it is often found in slogans.

Could the technique of Tha G Code (exhausting a word or phrase) be seen as *merely* rhetoric? I been using it since around 2015 (got put on by Lupe; peace!), and DOVE INTO IT around 2018. That rage carried into living with *drKiwi*, and likely is why I attacked *drKiwi*.
I'd hate to be wrong about the most fun I've had in my entire life creatively. Rivera is INSISTING that I go back to writing. There are more generations that need theme songs for their everyday life. It appears he's tired of listening to CH fight music and wants music to *step* to. I WANT to give him what he wants. I just want to do it WHEN I WANT TO. A lot is lined up (future wise), and I can't just cater to him all day. That said, Chris Rivera is awesome.
