10 Interesting List's that should be Compiled

We are so preoccupied with making lists every day and even more efficient in ensuring that we don't fulfill half the items in them . We have To Do lists, Wish list, Shopping list, exam schedule list, to read lists, to watch lists, to listen lists it can go on and on and on.

Like the value of Pi this is something that can go on and on and yet be unique in its own way. I have had my set of list's and personal adventures with them. Now i have come up with a list of 10 interesting lists that someone should take effort and compile, some are worth trying, some are to be ignored and some are still worth being listed (iam confused) .

There are so many types of lists and there are sites dedicated to listing only lists likehttp://www.oddee.com/ (great blog, must visit). you will be really amazed to find the number of different types of lists


1. 10 Poorest People in the world
Everyone is so obsessed with richness and extravagance and we have eventually ignored the majority class who are generally poor. Iam a self obsessed Forbes and Fortune browser looking for rise and fall of business moguls and royal inheritors. We should really find out who are the poorest people in the world, it will be easer than identifying the rich because the pauper wont have cross holding business structures and fluctuating currencies and stock indices to consider.

2. 10 Things Not to Do
This is something we should practice and perfect for our own sake. We all are familiar with the daily to do lists, but this will be an antonym to our usual cause. I could probably add all those stupid mistakes i keep repeating day after day like dont spill food on my clothes, don't over eat (heheheh) Dont write bullshit. This could really help a lot of us.

3. 10 Movies not to Watch
I have a list of to watch movies every month and i somehow make sure that i cover at least half of it, and as such i go and watch these bullshit movies exaggerated by catchy trailers and start studded promotional campaigns. If i had a choice i will come up with a list of movies not to watch and get people to read this. It could avoid a lot of despair and financial loss which looks like an interesting prospect now.

4. 10 most Happiest People.
This is something a creative journalist should work on and do justice to. I know happiness is a relative feeling which is experienced differently by different people. But it could be useful to learn the secrets of happiness from the leaders in the field. I know this is not a right time to take a census on happiness and might be a difficult task to complete but the prospect of seeing the happiest people are far more motivating.

5. 10 Numbers that can win you a lottery
I know the whole idea sounds absurd, but as per the science of statistics and probability if you look back over any kind of history there are going to be little clumps of irrational occurrences and relationships between events, numbers, characters etc. So if somebody can analyse the wining number for Lexus Raffle draw over the years, iam sure we can come up with the highest probable numbers. Sounds Interesting !!

6. 10 situation when you should keep quiet
This will be more useful than any other lists you have come across ever. If we knew when to speak and when not to, it could really make a difference in most of our relationships, personal, work related etc. This is just a hypothetical option because what we say now might be right right now and wrong some other time (what ?), what i mean to say is that if we can device a complex algorithm based on behavioral tendencies and develop this list, it could possibly avert the next world war or on a day to day basis, you will be smart enough to keep quiet when your girlfriend/wife asks "Do i look fat in this Dress ? "

7. 10 types of Fat Free Junk food.
This is a personal favorite from the junk food fan in me. Why do we have to always blame the poor fast food owners on making high calorie food items concentrating purely on our health benefits. Already it has become so confusing on what to eat and what not to (like i care), whats good for you whats not, what contains carbohydrates and what contains fats. This list will lay all the lists into further more confusion and will give a guilt free reason to gulp on all those sugary drinks. One piece of request to the compilers, please include Black forest pastry and Crispy Creme Donuts to it.

8. 10 Companies who recrited during the Recession.
I think i have been jinxed with the word recession, i cant sleep without putting this word somewhere in my article. When the whole world is discussing layoffs and profit lossess, it will be agood idea to come up with a list of companies who have recruited maximum number of people in this financial turmoil. We could feel good atleast for a while if we knew atleast someone is recruiting.
9. 10 ways not to waste time.
This is dedicated to all the people who spend their valuable time browsing all the possible sites and data on the net during office hours. I know most of us are jobless and we have an easy victim to blame now, recession but that dosent give us the luxury to waste our preious time. so we should come up with a list on how not to waste time which is yet again a waste of time (actually i have run out of ideas, so adding some crap to finish the list)

10. 10 Blogs not to read
This will be a relief for some of you. No my blog wont be listed here because i am taking all the efforts to keep the topics intersting and different from the other . This will be a wake up call for me everyday, to stay away from the list and come up with new interesting things.

Adios
