Anybody got a good topic.

Anyone got a good topic for a Cultural studies essay, its gotta be 2000 words long, has to be to do with media within culture in the 20th and 21st century.

Im useless at this, once i'm onto something i'l be fine I just duno where to start, I was thinkin maybe Pirate radio/Mitchell and Kenyon films/Tomato Design.

I have to discuss areas of the work critically so I need something I can really dig deep into.

Or maybe any good websites which might help me research wise?

Thanks.

I don't have any topics, but if you use "it has to" and "don't know" instead of "its gotta" and "dunno", you'll get to 2000 words a lot faster.

How about "The decline in levels of education particularly with regard to written English"?

I'd love to read it...

MR di u mean ...

"The decline in levels of education, with particular regard to written English"

?

[MarkRae]

> di u mean ...

Did you mean "did you mean..."?

And, to answer your question, no I didn't - a comma where you have inserted one would be otiose. As regards "with particular regard to" versus "particularly regarding", either is viable.

Oh For Funks Sake...be nice. This is a school kid that gets involved on here. Give her a chance and be nice. She's trying isn't she?

Sometimes people on here make me so mad..!!

[ummmm]

MarkRae....you pedantic Snag. It's nearly 2 in the morning For Funks Sake.

Jes...ignore them...ask again when the site is not full of drunks.

[joggerjayne]

yes, i did mean "did you mean"

Agree that either of the phrases in your second post would be (as you say) "viable".

However, neither of those "viable" phrases appeared in your first post.

[MarkRae]

Not pedantic at all. The OP was looking for a good topic for a cultural studies essay, and I suggested that the declining standards of written English might be suitable.

[ummmm]

So now you sound patronizing.

[MarkRae]

I didn't mean to sound patronising...

sorry .... drunk ........ me!

Bed now. Night x x x

[ummmm]

Ok.....sorry.

I just know that she's young and if I were her age I'd find it too intimidating here.

If jesimika saw some of the posts in ChatterBank then no doubt she'd be running as fast as her legs could take her.
