One of the things that make blogs blogs, according to many social media ‘thought leaders’, is the comments section – the arena of interplay between the author and the reader. Well, through the magic of comments, I’m giving the reader a chance to steer while I put on a tie or send a really important text or try to find that one CD that’s in the back seat somewhere.
That’s right, it’s time for another USER-GENERATED CONTENT WEEK! UGC Week 1 happened in Fall 2008, and I blogged about subjects like having a beard, mexican food, the presidential debates and why the CW drama One Tree Hill is a metaphor for the modern political landscape.
Those were okay topics, but now it’s 2010, and you need to step up your game, readers. In the comments section, leave me some things that you’d like to see me write a post on. Next week, I’ll write a post about every single thing you guys and gals come up with.
So, let’s have at it.

Blog about me!
Okay, maybe that’s not an interesting enough topic. Here’s a challenge for you though. One I was batting around doing. Pick up one of those newsstand magazines (People, US, etc) and do a point by point Rant about it.
Other than that, blog about comics. Like, compare/contrast Siege and Blackest Night.
Or, recommend bands we should listen to and give us reasons why we should.
I’d be interested in reading what you’d have to say about all these topics.
Do you know any poems by heart? Are there ones you were forced to memorize/ones you decided to pick up on your own? If you do have these floating around in your head, what do you use them for?
If the memorization thing doesn’t apply, tell me about a poem you wish you could recite (or read, or whatever), in public, and who you’d like for your audience.
Describe various acquaintances as comic book characters without explicitly saying who each is supposed to be, leaving it as an exercise for the reader to determine the secret identity of each.

(And I would totes read a blog post about the lovely Mr. Gatevackes. For the record.)
