So it’s been a while since I’ve been to McSweeney’s Internet Tendency’s (they make up funny lists). So here’s a few good ones:

  • Ikea Product or Lord of the Rings Character?
  • Some of Dan Brown’s Works in Progress.
  • HAL’s Comments While Trapped on a Desert Island, and Your Name Is Dave.

    Looking for some humor I jump on over to the lists at McSweeney’s. My favorites today are:

  • Four Ways in Which My Life Is Just Like Pac-Man’s.
  • Food and Drink Combinations That Would Make a Horrible Afterschool Snack but a Great Buddy Cop Team.
  • Things You Don’t Expect to See on a Baby Shower Announcement.
  • New State Names Resulting From the Coming Wave of Mergers and Acquisitions.
  • Mildly Upsetting Fortune-Cookie Messages.

    Okay, it’s rare that I do postings to just totally promote another site, so you know that means you’ll want to see this one. The list of lists from Timothy McSweeney. (Collected by, not necessarily written by).

    My favorites (so far) are:

  • The High-Anxiety Alphabet
  • Letters That Have Never Brought You an Episode of Sesame Street
  • Golf Course Names That Sound Dirty
  • E-mail Addresses It Would Be Really Annoying to Give Out Over the Phone
  • Sexual Euphemisms That Won’t Catch On
