The Joy of Listing

I just love making lists and ranking stuff.

  • Celebrity men where the revelation that they are predators really disappointed me

    1. Andrew Callaghan (Host of Channel 5/All Gas No Brakes)

      Both the revelations about him and the ones about Neil Gaiman really fucked with my head when their respective SA allegations came out. First because I was a huge fan and had a parasocial admiration for both but mainly because they had always framed themselves as “the good guys”. Neil Gaiman being a vocal “feminist” and Andrew a leftist “woke” guy. I really thought they were “one of the few good ones”. đŸ„Č
    2. Neil Gaiman

      I gave away my Sandman Comics Collection recently and I also can’t listen to Amanda Palmer or Dresden Dolls anymore knowing how complicit she was in his abusive behavior, which is really really sad because her music has meant a lot to me since I was a teenager. I am just gonna pretend Coraline isn’t based on a book of his, because I love that movie so much
    3. Woody Allen

      I know it was always known in my lifetime that he is disgusting. But my mom was a huge fan so I grew up on his movies not knowing about the extend of his abuse. I only knew that he “married the daughter of his ex” which is not even close to the full story. Watching “Allen v. Farrow” made me so sick I threw all of his movies I had on DVD in the trash and never (re)watched another movie of his.
    4. Kevin Spacey

      He used to be one of my favorite actors and my sister and I both really admired him and had this parasocial idea in our heads of how great of a guy he was. Thankfully he plays a creep/asshole/terrible person in all of my favorite movies he’s in so it’s not hard to rewatch them for me.
    5. Johnny Depp
    6. Ninja (of Die Antwoord)
    7. Snoop Dogg
    8. Joe Gatto (of Impractical Jokers)
    9. Louis CK
    10. Cee Lo Green

    Dishonorable Mentions: Dustin Hoffman, Joss Whedon, Anthony Kiedis (RHCP), James Franco, Jonah Hill, Ben Affleck, Kanye West, Justin Roiland


    A lot of celebrities are “only” in the dishonorable mentions because my expectations of them as people were very low to begin with, despite me really liking their art
    (*cough* Kanye *cough*).

  • My Top 10 Favorite Contrapoints videos


    I know lots of people dislike her and she’s been “cancelled” a billion times but I will always stan Natalie. I’ve rewatched her video essays sooo many times and I just don’t get tired of them.
    I am also more parasocially invested in her life and career than I’d like to admit. I want to be her friend so bad. She has such great taste in everything and is so funny and smart and pretty. đŸ„ș

    1. The Male Gaze (Patreon Tangent)
    2. Cringe
    3. Envy
    4. Twilight
    5. Alpha Males (Since deleted because it was pre-transition)
    6. Gamergate (Patreon Tangent)
    7. Shame

  • My top 10 Favorite love interests in Gilmore Girls (+who I hate)

    1. Dave Rygalski
      (I grew up watching The OC and therefore have a huuuge crush on Adam Brody. And this role is the most attractive he’s ever been imo. Great boyfriend, musician, music nerd. And the episode where he reads the entire bible in one night just so he can officially take Lane to prom is bf goals.)
    2. Luke
      (I don’t think I need to explain. He’s just the best. Cis-het men should study him to become better people.)
    3. Jess
      (Yeah, I know he’s a shitty boyfriend. But he has amazing taste in music, movies, books and is a genius, underachieving bad boy. That’s exactly my type unfortunately.)
    4. Marty
      (I am still so mad that Rory chose Logan over Marty. Marty was such a cute, sweet, non-threatening guy. The only reason he’s not higher on this list is his shitty behavior in the later seasons. but Season 4+5 Marty is the perfect guy imo.)
    5. Kirk
      (Hot take: Kirk is hot. Yes, he’s dorky and extremely weird and not conventionally attractive, but that’s exactly why he’s hot to me. The only down-side which puts him lower on this list is that he lives with his mother.)
    6. Jason “Digger” Styles
      (I know some people disagree, but I reeeally liked Jason as a love interest. He and Lorelai had such great chemistry and he’s funny, witty and a little eccentric. Also quite good looking. I don’t find the actor playing him attractive in any other show, but this role + the beard really suit him.)
    7. Doyle
      (I love how he matches Paris’ freak. He’s sooo into her and not at all threatened by her genius and ambitions. Also I like that he’s a bit effeminate. But I hate the scene where they’re broken up and he’s drunk and weird to Rory.)
    8. Max Medina
      (He’s sweet and good looking and how he pursues Lorelai in the first season is really attractive, but he’s also a bit boring. And I don’t like the other sides of him we see in Season 2.)
    9. Alex
      (Also sweet, witty, good looking but kind of boring besides that. Also we don’t really know much about him because of how minor a character he was)
    10. Robert
      (In case you don’t remember who he even is. He’s the friend of Logan’s who asked Rory to go to the Tarantino birthday party with him. I just think he’s hot and weird and I needed a 10th and hated/didn’t care for everyone else. Sorry)

    Honorable Mentions: Rune and Jackson. Both are not my type but I love them as characters.

    Who I hate:
    Logan (!!!!)
    Christopher (!!!)
    Dean (!!!!!!)
    Zach (!)

  • My Top 10 favorite highly specific genres of movies

    1. Movies about weird people falling in love (Science of Sleep, Eagle vs. Shark, Silver Linings Playbook, etc.)
    2. Coming of age movies about weird/outcast teens (Rushmore, Ghost World, Juno, etc.)
    3. Movies that are just one long deep conversation (My dinner with Andre, Before Sunrise-trilogy, etc.)
    4. Psychological thrillers (bonus if “erotic” and/or from the 90s)
    5. Girly teen movies (80s/90s/00s) 
    6. Rom Coms (especially the 90s ones)
    7. Extremely fucked up movies dealing with uncomfortable subjects like rape, pedophilia or self-harm/suicide in a kind of way that doesn’t feel inauthentic or like trauma porn (think Todd Solondz movies)
    8. Atypical horror that is more focused on fucking you up psychologically rather than with gore (Ari Aster movies, Jordan Peele movies, etc.)
    9. Movies about dysfunctional families that are both devastating and hopeful (think Little Miss Sunshine, Kajillionaire, etc.)
    10. Documentaries about artists or musicians

    Honorable Mentions: Screwball comedies from the 30s/40s, many different documentary sub-genres, mockumentaries, christmas movies, movies about queer people that are actually made by queer people, movies about dreamers (they’re almost always autistic-coded lol), classic murder mystery movies, stoner films, movies about music nerds,

  • Top 10 of the ultimate gift ideas for me specifically

    1. W.I.T.C.H. Sonderheft Band 29 and/or 30, 31, 32
      (I collect them since childhood and I have every single one except those 4. Sadly they’ve been out of stock for ages now so they’re rare to find at a decent price)
    2. Official Frenemies Merch (Shirt, Hoodie or Beanie. My fav would be a Hoodie but I would be extremely happy with any of them. Oh, and size M but larger would be fine too)
    3. My favorite shoes that are currently falling apart slowly and I don’t know how I will be able to cope without them, Purple T.U.K. Velvet Combat Boots – EU Size 41, (they’re only available in other countries anymore and way to expensive)
    4. Making me Letterboxd famous (Asking lots of people to make an account, if they don’t have one already, then to follow me and to read and like my reviews)
    5. A surprise party where everyone is wearing elaborate film themed costumes.
    6. One or more of the pieces of clothing I lost when my suitcase got stolen on holiday last year that I wasn’t able to find and rebuy on Vinted yet.
    7. Learning the Napoleon Dynamite Dance for me and then dancing it for me (preferably in cosplay)
    8. Sending a Superchat on YouTube when the H3 Podcast is live and asking for a shoutout for me (You have to do it early in the episode and for enough money that they’ll actually read it though)
    9. A cake with my face printed on it like in the Gilmore Girls episode where Rory turns 16 OR a replicate of the ugly pink cake Mr. Burns makes for homer in the episode “Scenes from the class struggle in Springfield”
    10. Sylvanian Families Blind Bags (only when there is a new series that just dropped since I otherwise most likely already have most of them)

    Which also always works to make me happy:
    Asking me to explain one of my favorite topics in detail to you and acting (or even better actually being) very interested.
    Or asking me to teach you Binding of Isaac. ^^

  • My Top 60 Favorite Popcicles and Ice cream Cones

    First things first: sorry for my long absence. I was terribly depressed and lost my passion for most things. + the thought of posting stuff made me anxious.
    But I’m better now and I have written lots of lists during my absence, so look out for more posts in the next few days.

    My main list project this summer was buying and tasting a ridiculous amount of different kinds of ice cream and rating and ranking them.
    At first I wanted to stop at 50, but there were still so many that tempted me, so I just kept on going. I still have some that I haven’t tried yet but want to so there might be a Part 2 for some additional ones.
    I also originally wanted to review every single one but doing that with 60 flavors would be ridiculously long so I’ll just keep it to rank, name and rating. I also marked the ones that are vegan. All the flavors I couldn’t or just didn’t want to finish eating because of how bad they were are marked with a “*”.
    If you want to know more details please ask.
