Here’s a shorthand version of what’s in that article:
- Write a limerick about one of the cited studies….
- Write a long-single-sentence short story that includes the titles of every study mentioned in one of the review articles….
- Do dramatic readings, in person, or in live or recorded video, of little chunks from the magazine….
- Watch an Ig Nobel Prize winner…
- Go down a rabbit hole. For some item that catches your fancy…
- Go down a maybe-important rabbit hole…
- If you are a journalist, some of those rabbit holes house bunnies that can make news editors hop to attention…
- Start an argument about whether some particular study is good or bad, important or trivial, valuable or worthless.
