The Throwing Things blog led me to this 11 Things site, which offers up funny lists. Flipping through their archives can be hilarious. Here are a few of my favorites.
--Athletes whose names seem like typos. Yes, perhaps someone whose maiden name was "Fashingbauer" does not have a lot of ground to stand on, but BRETT FAVRE!
--Musicians who wish we'd never seen their yearbook photos. Oh, Gene Simmons. And Good God, Ryan Seacrest.
--Predictions that "Back to the Future" got right.
--Painfully obvious newspaper articles. What constitutes a millionaire? Better ask a financial advisor!
And finally, 11 things the Bible forbids, but that you do anyway.
About Me
- Gael Fashingbauer Cooper
- I'm an entertainment editor at MSNBC.com, and have maintained Pop Culture Junk Mail since August, 1999. The New York Times called the site "one of the best places to explore pop culture online," and Entertainment Weekly included it on their Top 100 Web Sites list. If you like weird food, strange products, and 1970s and 1980s nostalgia, PCJM is your home away from home.
I have a brand new BOOK, written with Brian Bellmont. "Whatever Happened to Pudding Pops? The Lost Toys, Tastes and Trends of the '70s and '80s." Buy it online, and follow our retro reminiscing on our GenXtinct blog, Facebook, and Twitter.
