From my personal experience, you’re going to write pretty much the same amount of papers no matter which Interp & Arg (the mandatory English) class you take. However, your choice of class will influence what types of reading that you get. I took the one on Piracy, and I found that I got a mix of papers that ranged from the strictly academic to the loosely colloquial. My friend, who chose the comics one, ended up reading a lot of (surprise!) comics.

I am assuming that since you don’t like papers, you also don’t like reading papers. Then my advice for you is to avoid the ones that deal with social/political/philosophical issues like social equality, and gun for the ones that analyze more “mainstream” issues like internet speak or (as mentioned above) comics.

Also, avoid World History if you can. If there was ever a really annoying paper writing class, this one would be it.
