I love keeping lists about any and everthing. I have lists about: movies I want to watch, song lyrics, cool phrases or new words, e.t.c. What do your consider to be your favourite or most interesting lists

    I used to be a teacher, and I kept a list of funny names that I would use for word problems and the like. Just silly stuff like Ivan Inkling, Chris P. Bacon, Millie Peade, etc.

      That’s so cute actually. I’m imagining something like “Ivan Inkling buying 20 oranges from Chris P. Bacon but Bacon is worried that some of his oranges are radiactive worm eggs. If the probability of as orange being an egg is 0.2 what is the probabilty that Ivan really bought twenty oranges”

        I was sadly not quite imaginative enough to consider radioactive worm eggs, but I do seem to recall Ivan Inkling opening up an ice cream shop at one point and Max E. Mum and his sister Minnie coming in to consider all the different flavor combinations they could buy.
