Another demonstration of satire is played in superstition. Here, Jim and Huck are very superstitious with a rattlesnake skin. Earlier in the book, Huck touches a rattlesnake skin, and Jim stops him from handling it before he gets bad luck: "And he said that handling a snake-skin was such awful bad luck that maybe we hadn't got to the end of it yet, He ....

The way he talks about or to each gives you some idea of whether he thinks they are "phony" or normal. A few of his accounts make it more obvious than others to discover how he classifies each family member.
From the very first page of the novel, Holden begins to refer to his parents as distant and generalizes both his father and mother frequently throughout his chronicle. One example is: "…my parents would have about two hemorrhages apiece if I told anything personal about them. They’re quite touchy about anything like that, especia ....
