10 Things You Won't Believe Can Be Listed On The Internet

Man, aren't lists on the Internet just great? They’re just dandy, for writers and readers alike. After all, they require no significant effort to make and aren’t taxing on readers’ attention spans. You just gotta love those lists!

In celebration of just how great lists are, let’s take a look at the top 10 items that can be listed and, furthermore, are even listed here!

1. Bees!

Holy cow, bees! Bees are incredible, aren’t they? They make honey and fly around a whole lot. I mean, they don’t really have very much to do with lists, but dang, you can list the heck outta them!

2. Neil Gaiman’s face.

Neil Gaiman is a wonderful author, and he wouldn’t be caught dead writing an arbitrary list of things for the Internet. But goodness gracious, his face is certainly list-able! After all, look at how the No. 2 item of this list is Neil Gaiman’s face.

3. The Democratic Republic of the Congo.

Wow! There’s a Central African nation on this list! That’s amazing! Who knew that you could list Central African nations? I certainly didn’t, but this list proved me wrong, didn’t it?

4. The entire filmography of Danny DeVito.


Hey, everyone loves Danny DeVito, right? We could probably add his body of cinematic work to this list! It bears absolutely no connection to the other points of this list, but that doesn’t matter. The important thing is that we make a list of things for the Internet.

5. This GIF of…whatever this is.

Great googly-moogly! This animated GIF is going to give me nightmares for years, but it’s definitely list-able, isn’t it? Isn’t the Internet amazing?

6. This jar of A. A. Milne’s tears.

For the record, I have no idea if this jar actually contains A. A. Milne’s tears, but even if it doesn’t, it sure as heck can go on this list. Thanks for helping contribute to this list as well as to the general canon of children’s literature, Mr. Milne!

7. The English lexicon.

Hey, check it out! Here are some words about words in a list! I’m being so meta! Isn’t that what the youth are into these days?

8. Right-aligned text.

Holy self-referentiality, Batman! Now even the formatting for my article is getting in on the action! Isn't that just peachy?

9. The dark, empty void of sadness manifesting itself as a literary, last-ditch attempt to remain relevant.

See? Even existential sadness can be listed! In fact, making lists all the time is a surefire way to ensure that even if this doesn’t make the list, its overwhelming presence can be felt during the soul-sucking excuse for a creative process that defines content mass-produced for a media audience.

10. This list.

Wow! Look at me, being reflexive! Please love me! Please! I’m so alone!


Note: I’d like to offer special thanks to my personal friend Baron Sir vön Doofenhaüser πth for his input on this article. Much appreciated, good sir!

11 Things Summer Nannies Can Relate To

As a college student, being a nanny over the summer is both enjoyable and challenging. Underneath the seemingly perfect trips to the pool or countless hours spent playing Monopoly are the obstacles that only nannies will understand. Trading in your valuable summer vacation in return for three months spent with a few children less than half your age may seem unappealing, but so many moments make it rewarding. For my fellow summer nannies out there, I know you can relate.

If it hurts now, it'll hurt again. Not because you're gullible or naive, only because you fall fast, hard, and you do it every time.

We fall each and every time with the complete and utter confidence that someone will be there to catch us. Now that person we SWORE we were never going to fall for has our hearts, and every time we see them our palms start sweating. The butterflies in our stomach start to soar and our hearts are entirely too close to bursting out of our chests.

Growing up I have always wanted to own a horse. My grandparents own a well known equestrian facility in Georgia, so I have been riding since I was born. A bond between a person and their horse is a bond so strong that it cannot be broken. Everywhere I went I wanted to be around horses, even forcing my family to go on trail rides during vacations. Horses have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember has taught me great responsibility, as well as 14 things that all equestrians can relate to.

College is super hard. Between working, studying, and having a social life, it feels like a struggle to just keep afloat.

I understand. When you feel like your drowning and there's no way to stay afloat I understand that it feels like everyone else is doing just fine. I understand all the frustration, long nights in the library, and that feeling that you want to just throw in the towel. I understand that sometimes it's too hard to get out of bed because your brain is already filled with too much information to remember. I understand because I am also feeling pretty burnt out.

Some of the best advice I've ever received was from my social studies teacher in sophomore year of high school. He stated, "If you don't know it at midnight, you're not going to know it for the 8 a.m. exam, so get some sleep."

It's such a simple piece of advice, but it holds so much accuracy and it's something that the majority of college students need to hear and listen to. "All-nighters" are a commonality on college campuses in order to cram in studying for an exam that is typically the next day.
