Lists that take notice of the fact that a thing has a silly name, and go on to extrapolate other silly names for that thing
Lists that take notice of the fact that certain phrase is silly, and proceed to come up with other silly phrases, ones that are cleverly parallel to the first phrase that kicked the whole thing off
Lists of things that pertain only to my own life; but unimportant things, so that people reading the list are amused by my feigned narcissism
Lists that allow me to say some things which are themselves funny, but less funny than the fact that the things don’t have much to do with each other
Lists that repeat something over and over again, past the point where a lesser humor-writer person might have stopped
Lists that are the unedited dumping-ground of my unconscious
Lists that trivialize the serious
Lists that elevate the trivial
Lists that are, upon reflection, perverse
Lists of reasons why a certain sensibility is squandering the talent of an entire generation of writers
Lists that absolve even as they damn
Lists on a bus, lists on a car
Lists to make you a superstar
Lists to win and lists to lose
But these here lists will rock your shoes
And these are the lists
List it up, list it up, list it up!
