When I started up OMGLists less than two months ago, I figured it would be a neat way to explore my obsession with pop-culture that would hopefully find a few readers. Turns out I was wrong. It was an awesome way to explore my obsession with pop-culture that found a lot of readers. Thanks to a crack-team of excellent listographers, we've put out some excellent content in 2007. Here's my seven favorite lists we've done, and a few words on why each one was so dang great.
7- The 6 Sweetest Save Points in Gaming
This was the first list we ever published, way back in the salad days of November 2007. It's a gaming list, which is my personal forte, and like my other favorite gaming list (The 8 Blatant Load Screen Coverups) it proved near-impossible to find adequate screenshots for. Turns out gaming companies don't willingly provide pictures of save points and load screens to the press. If I do nothing else in 2008, I will make them change that.
6- Top 5 Internet Dating Red Flags Of Doom
Finding love on the internet can suck, and lists exist for no reason greater than making sucky things slightly tolerable.That is why I love this internet list. I'd date it if it were socially accepted
5- The 8 Sexiest Sirens of Indie Rock
FACT: I love indie rock.
FACT: I love attractive women.
FACT: I love this article so much, I'd marry it.
4- The 7 Most Misleading URLs
While we may have done irreparable damage to our office PC researching this article--most disgusting URLs actually do lead to disgusting websites, as we learned--the end result was a fun take on a bunch of weird sites, without a single girl or cup being unleashed on innocent eyes.
3- Top 5 Bands that Guy with the Black Rimmed Glasses Talks Your Ear Off About at a Party
Living in San Francisco, I've come across many black-rimmed glasses guys at parties. Needless to say, most do engage in excessive conversation about indie bands that we're already sick to death of hearing about. Thankfully, our own black-rimmed glasses guy has defected from their ranks and put together this handy primer on how to deal with them.
2- The 9 Most Unfortunately Named Athletes
One of our resolutions here at OMGLists headquarters is to create more sports-based lists. Thankfully, with our first and only 2007 sports list, we've found our niche. Atheletes and sports in general are rife for mocking, and mock we will. I just hope we don't end up with UFC fighters are our door looking for revenge in a few months. Probably not, since they're all fucking braindead goons anyway.
1- The 6 Weirdest Kid Show Appearances
This article encapsulates all that I hoped OMGLists would be. Educational, entertaining, and embarrassing (for the celebs). Basically, there's a lot of E, and if my raver days were any indication, a lot of E is a good thing. Man, this carpet is sooooo soft!
