Absolutely. I would feel better about the forum lists if they didn't have "top 10" in the title. That's just too limited. Today's top 10 might not be tomorrow's top 10.

Lists remind me about the good and bad things I have seen. Good to ponder and provoke. As a result of seeing some of the films mentioned on the film list I have made a list of DVDs I want to rent.

And another result of seeing some of the theatre plays people have seen is that I realise just how little money I earn being self employed which has depressed me for the day....


Top Ten Reasons to ban lists?

1. No they're not.

2. They allow us to see what others tastes are, and how they vary from or are similar to our own.

3. This may lead to us 'copping off' with them.

4. Heck maybe even settling down and raising a coupla kids.

5. It allows free rein for those endowed with the quirkiness gene.

6. Sometimes contributors take a sideways look at the subject under discussion.

7. Often with added wryness.

8. Though of course if unchecked 5, 6 and 7 may lead to zaniness.

9. And nobody wants that, do they?

10. Perhaps four pounder may be right, we should be cautious about these things.

This is in my "Top 10 Funniest Threads"



It starts and ends at this though.


The thing that bugs me most about "top 10 blah blah blah" is,


who on earth can remember 10 of anything?


I struggle if I put more than 5 types of alcoholic drinks on my shopping list... (?)


The mouthwash and floor cleaner sections usually lead me astray...

    • Thanks very much, that's really interesting. I feel better about the shredded paper not being recycled now! And even better that I can get it out of the house and into the green bin! I will save a bit for future composting though  (and homemade seed paper, thanks Peckhamgatecrasher) x
    • Hello. I think we have found him! Sending you a DM with my phone number. 
    • That's fantastic news. Good on him. 
    • I pass here almost every day and have never seen the local business struggle to load. There's plenty of space as things are.    Seems to me this is just the meddling council being ****heads yet again. These are their reasons: "BAWDALE ROAD Goose Green add a total of 35m new 'DYLs' on both sides south-east of its junction with Lordship Lane (22m on the side of No. 157 Lordship Lane, 3m o/s No. 2 Bawdale Road, and 10m opposite No.2 Bawdale Road) to protect access for large vehicles coming to collect from and deliver goods to the nearby businesses"   Consultation here: https://consultation.appyway.com/southwark/order/1c3a8926-8f51-47e1-8460-2727fec6d895
