Attention my blog friends! I'm crowdsourcing YOU!

Next week is Banned Books Week.

I thought about doing a Trib column on banned books, but then I realized that as much as I hate some books, I don't want any of them to be banned.  So Marg at the bookstore came up with this awesome idea: write a column about stuff I want to ban--like two-year long presidential election cycles, for example.

Any ideas about what we should ban?

I will disclose that the column has been crowdsourced although I won't identify individuals.

I would LOVE your help.  And I will probably write the column on Sunday night, so there's that.

Thanks!

What would I like to see banned? Reality TV. It isn't real and it isn't TV as far as I know. this would include every bachelor show, Kardashian, any wife TV and anything else that should be dealt with at home, doors locked, shades drawn....If we need to know more then someone can get back to the art of documentaries which I love.

Is that what crowdsourcing means? I didn't know.

I'd like to ban excessive homework for kids. :) My kids (ages 6 and 11) think the following should be banned: tobacco, poor people that don't have homes (they should all be given homes), bad movies, cars that pollute the air a lot.

People driving in the left lane while not passing.
Watching the same commercial every break on Hulu.
Weeds.
Ear wigs.
Neighbors with diesel trucks that leave for work before 5am.

Viagra or cyalis commercials (so says my daughter)
Feminine hygiene product commercials ( so says my son)

Those little stickers on fruit and veggies
