Lists by People Cooler Than You
The Times once called McSweeney’s devotees the “emperors of cool.” It’s true — hipper-than-thou twenty-somethings love the Dave Eggers publishing empire, which includes the pretentiously bound Timothy McSweeney’s Quarterly Concern. The best bit of quirk to emerge from McSweeney’s, however, is undoubtedly the reader-submitted lists that are updated on a weekly basis on the McSweeney’s website. Thoughtful and clever, lists like Rarely Used Parenthetical Statements and Things That Are Beyond the Pale sit among dozens of others waiting for your afternoon-work-slump-internet-break perusal.
