Michael Jackson died yesterday, and while everybody is still reeling from the news and trying to process the odd mixture of sadness, confusion (anger?) and adoration that most have felt for the pop superstar and, lately, reclusive nut-job throughout their lives, list-form tributes abound. Rather than add one to the mix, we’ll add 10 suggestions [...]

The annual movie media blitz session came and went with surprisingly few surprises. (Do we say that every year?) With this last little rush for our Weekly Wednesdays list-of-lists we’re officially putting the Oscars to bed for the next ten months.
Sleep well exhausted golden man, know that even though you gave it up to some [...]

Another week has gone by and another slate of listicles we can barely keep up with has been published. Even with the addition of our list-submitting service, The Listocracy (start submitting lists today!), we’ve been unable to cover the Interweb’s perpetual cycle of lists. In this edition of our list-of-lists survey, Weekly Wednesdays, we chronicle [...]

We had this incredible idea for a great Valentine’s Day listicle that you would have all loved and never been able to put down. It was going to be the most useful, unsentimental, lucid list about love you’d ever laid eyes on. Then we got swamped with other folks’ Valentine’s listicles (”Valensticles“?) and ran out [...]

We here at Listicles are pretty devout design buffs, but the Interweb has a way of generating such a wealth of visually stunning design, art and architecture listicles that we really don’t have the time or space to pass them onto you.
Our catch-up list-of-lists, Weekly Wednesdays, is the perfect venue for us to give the [...]

It’s been about a week since the year’s most venerated, vehemently debated and viscerally detested movie listicle was released, and, not surprisingly, the Interweb’s been abuzz with 2009 Academy Award discussions. Personally we find the whole affair sickening and are completely underwhelmed by the slate of films the Academy has decided to fawn over this [...]

Listicles sports columnist Onesie here, back with a basketball-centric edition of Sporty Saturdays. In three weeks the 2009 NBA All-Star Game will be upon us, and as per usual I haven’t been hired as an extra mascot. I wouldn’t normally mind so much – though I apply every year they’ve only hired me once, then [...]

For only the second time in these soon-to-be-over aughts, America had two different presidents in one week, giving the Interweb twice the fodder for more-or-less political list-making. Parsing through our online colleagues’ output for our weekly catch-up listicle Weekly Wednesdays, we came across a sampling of the most obscure policy points, tangential pop cultural tie-ins, [...]

For all our efforts to offer you, dear readers, as many environmentally-minded listicles as we can read, the greening of the Interweb is advancing at such a pace that we honestly can’t keep up with all the eco-friendly listicles.
What better way, then, to do justice to all the green listicles (”greensticles”?) than to dedicated this [...]

With our media cycles accelerating to the point of time travel, some great 2009 lists caught our eye before the year even began. More risky than lists that summarize past events, we especially like prediction lists for offering a thrilling vision of what the future might look like. To get an idea of what the [...]
