I have to write a 2,000 word research paper for my college English class... I can pick any topic I want, but unfortunately I can't think of anything (maybe cause IM watching the red sox game) to write about. Anycrap you guys are smart, and always have original idea's. What should I research?

The history of puroresu is interesting, and has a lot of sub-categories you could write about

I actually can't watch that film anymore...:( Too much happened in my life when I first watched that. I'd get really depressed.
Great movie though!

Well, there's another topic you could write about. The fine line between pain and pleasure. Not so much in a sexual way, but you could have fun writing things that could be taken in a purely literary way or a smutty way. ;) and you could go into the fine line between other things like love/hate, constructive criticism/being insulting, lying/leaving out details to spare someone's feelings... you get the idea. And why people do/say the things they do... on and on...

If there is a certain topic you feel strong about, do it on that topic. Then you get to research a topic you like anyway and get to learn more about it. Plus you'll probably feel more passionate about it and it will be easier to write at least 2000 words about it.

death penalty
marijuana decriminalization
abortion
Iran conflict
affirmative action
global warming
euthenasia
gun control
our screwed up political system or any specific aspect of it
drinking & driving
eating disorders
Bruce Lee vs. An Angry Chimp
alternative energy sources
Any of those should be able to garner 2000 words in no time, but then again I could write 2000 words about thwe back of my hand or as STE suggested a sneeze. Just be descriptive.

The far back reaches of my hand has very small cells that seem to resemble and or relate to similar parts of other areas and cells on the rest of my body such as.....Etc....

Well, I'd say you could do the definitive study on the swelling of Flayed's liver in direct proportion to the bottle of crappy whiskey I chugged last night. However, I'm not so sure I'd appreciate all of the probing you'd have to do to get the desired results.

what about a paper on the phenomenon of approaching a bunch of strangers on a message board for ideas for your paper ?
the feedback - the negative/ the positive ...
how did it make you feel ?
how does this reflect society in general ?
what bearing does it have on the price of tea in china ?

communicating on the internet has an interesting effect on how people behave.

I'd wholeheartedly agree with that, there are people here from all walks of life, who, to begin with, had only one common interest, a love of the horror genre
Now the question is: If, before HDC, you had put these same people in a room together, would they have become the community they are now? I doubt it, why? Because we are all from different backgrounds and as human beings we tend to stick to what we know rather than branch out into the unknown
The internet gives us anonymity, it ceases to be about age, sex, race, colour, profession, etc. The internet is a meeting of minds, not of faces, here we judge with our interlect not with our eyes

The asking complete strangers for idea's on a message board is pretty intresting, but I think I found a winner
