McSweeneys

Posted at 12:55pm on Tuesday, July 3rd, 2007

Doug has just reminded me how much I enjoy McSweeneys lists (despite my realisation that the Dave Eggers behind McSweeneys is the same Dave Eggers behind some of my most hated books - no really, they’re dire).

    I sent our GRACC list of Cricket-related Movies to McSweeneys. They sent back a very nice email saying that some of them were jolly amusing but perhaps would be lost on their target audience. Which was nice.

    I agree, I’ve attempted to read A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius, and gave up.

    But I’ve bookmarked several McSweeneys lists over the years:
    Bedtime stories by Thom Yorke
    E-mail Addresses It Would Be Really Annoying to Give Out Over the Phone
    Reasons To Fear Canada
    Who’s on first?
