connections and comparisons

Today in class, we all talked about how people are able to make connections in what they see and the importance of it. Max Rice said that he could make comparisons between miscellaneous things such as a white board and the Jonas Brothers. The connection he made was that they are both white and untalented. I agree with what he said, however I don't believe that his statement was a legit comparison. In order to have a good connection, it is essential that they both relate to each other in a deeper way than just small physical and superficial views. It's ridiculous to relate ipods and chickens, simply because the two are white.
