Reader Requests
Sometimes we all need a little inspirado.
I thought I'd try something a bit different and create a place for anyone reading this blog to suggest a topic. Whatever you want to see written about, type it up in the comments box below and I'll take a stab at posting about it.
I've tried my hand at posting about umbrellas, getting everyone sick, and a few other suggested topics that I don't feel like looking up because I think you get the idea. So give it a shot, and we'll see if I can take your idea and run with it – hopefully in a direction that's somewhat entertaining.
I'll also add a link to this post to the top of the page, probably in the navigation bar – right before the Pepsi Purple link, so it's always accessible.

All at once, and if they relate. I want to see what sparx can come up with.

Forget the wacky trio I suggested. I want to hear your thoughts on My Little Pony and the "pegacorn," a combination of the pegasus and unicorn.

Looks like you lost a round of "Tuna Roulette"!
I'm afraid to eat tuna from any container that has been sitting out all day.. like at a sub/sandwich shop.

Can you make twitter have analytics, so i can see who comes to my twitter account and from where? That would be cool.

I didn't understand foursquare either. But then one day I signed up to see what it was about. And it's actually fun!

Why do I go looking for something, particularly attempting to respond to sweepstakes, and get something as stupid of spudart? You mention the sweepstakes and thats it. Because of you the search does not go to what I requested but idtiots like you that think I might be interested in … well … What?

I also request that you make a blog post about the carpets at cash registers. Not the carpet that the cashier stands on, but the carpet that the customer stands on. Thank you.

I would like either a webpage that shows a random blog post, or a box in the side column with a random blog post. Or something like that.

Sometimes I like to come on this post and just write stuff randomly. It's sort of like an open chalkboard for ideas. Oh wait. Do schools call them whiteboards now? Or is there another name? Oh Smartboards? Wait. Is the B capped? SmartBoards?
February 28, 2012 @ 4:42 pm
sparx (828 comments) said,
whiteboard.
a smartboard interfaces with a computer, usually so you can save what you've drawn on the board as an image.

you should keep a dry-erase marker in your bathroom and draw stuff on the mirror while you brush your teeth or whatever.

good idea, sparx, but when i'm in the bathroom, i'm only doing bathroom stuff. the bathroom is for bathroom stuff. I'm in. I'm out.

Hey! I have a request. Can you make a random post of the day? Every day there would be one sparxmind blog post that is the featured post for the day. That would be great. Thanks.

Do you have a link or section on your site that will give me a random blog post from your archive? I would like that. Thank you.
November 15, 2012 @ 3:52 pm
spudart (791 comments) said,
Better yet. I don't want a random blog post. What I want instead is a list of all your blog posts that have zero comments. That's what I want.

Hey, I have a reader request. I am a reader. And I have a request. Thus, I have a reader request. Ready? ahem. mememememe. mememememe. Ready?
I want a blog post where I can talk about how many comments I have. And how many you have. I often talk about the number of comments I have on random blog posts. But it would be really nice to have all those comments under one blog post. Then I can always go to that blog post whenever I want to say something like, "wow. i have 771 comments." Then I can go back and relive the memories when I said, "wow, i have 498 comments." Or some other random number.
