Essay ideas
 
I need to start to get an idea for an essay, by tonight, because its due on monday. And the only idea i have so far is on how essays dont help us build vital skills. The essay only has to be 5 mins long, give or take 30 seconds max, So that would be cool if you give me some good ideas for an essay. Tons of + reps to whoever gives a good idea, or funny response.

But what really is a speech other than an essay spoken aloud?

actually, i was halfway serious with that one...

You see, little kids ask a bunch of seemingly dumb questions. But truth of the matter is, most adults can't answer them. There are answers to them but there is a paradox in that very few make the effort to find the answers so a majority of people go through life ignorant. And they pass on their ignorance to their children, and the cycle continues until someone makes an effort to find the answer or gets lucky and is told.

I always wanted to write about that one, but didn't have the time to devote and it never fit in with any class themes

Research and decide who would win in a fight between a giraffe and a wolf. My friend wrote about this, and it's very interesting. Or, pick any duo of animals who you think would have an interesting fight, and research why and how which animal would win.

What about the combat between an eggman and a Walrus? Goo Goo Gojoo?

There are some good essay examples in another topic. The El Niņo one is pretty interesting. :p

But seriously, how about how the game and film industries are just money-grabbing jerks (most of them anyway), and never care about the consumers?
