I have to compare/contrast two different things for english class. I'm comparing skiers vs. snowbaorders, but the essay can't simply be about why skiers are better than snowboarders, it has to be more condensed than that. My teacher gave me an example topic "why skiers make better boyfriends than snowboarders", but I can't use that because she came up with the idea.

So newschoolers, this is where I need you.  I need a fun and interesting topic comparing skiers vs. snowboarders. I'm thinking of something along the lines of "skiers are better (blank) than snowboarders. Anyone got any good ideas for this essay topic?

If you can't come up with something by yourself change the topic.

If it's more of a compare/contrast, instead of why skiing is better at ______, compare the different jibbing styles of snowboarders and skiers.

Originally I was going to have my paper be on something like this, but she is a bitch and all of our papers have to be "fun and interesting" so the topics have to be stupid.

And thanks to the guy that listed off 3. I'm just thinking way too hard about the topic that I can't even think of any.
