    PLANTS! (illus credit: Lucille Clerc) Not the best photo but I spent a long time putting together that puzzle over the holidays. 😅 But enough about me, we're here to talk about PLANTS. Did you know that all animals, including humans, make up less than one percent of Earth's entire biomass...

    Not Animal, Not Mineral, Only Vegetable - Top 50 Plants Nomination Thread

    Well, the previous two lists are wrapped up, high time to see if we can get another one going without too long a gap. We've done plenty of lists covering various animals - Dinosaurs, Mythical Creatures, most of the Monsters and Pokemon, obviously the just-wrapped Sidekicks, and of course dozens...

    The Top 50 Fictional Relationships Voting Thread - I'd Do Anything For Love (But I Won't Vote That)

    Since the earliest stages of civilization, after mankind stopped worrying about outrunning predators (but before they solved the problem of public plumbing), we have devoted a significant part of our collective mind-power to a very important topic: shipping. Not in the “packing stuff to send it...

    Talking Time's Top 50 Office Supplies

    I asked and you answered. Talking Time has opinions on paper products. The thing is -- top 50 lists are a lot of work, pretty stressful, you know? And there's a lot on my plate right now. I just don't think I can take on this project. If only there were a way to lighten the load... Oh hey...

    No One Can Stop Mr. Talking Time's Top 50 32 & 64-Bit Video Games!

    The 32 & 64-Bit era of gaming (also known as the 5th Console Generation) was a time of tremendous upheaval. For 25 years video games had had mostly two-dimensional graphics (and when graphics looked 3D it was almost always due to some clever tricks). Game music had evolved beyond beeps and...

    Capsize the Vote! The Popularity Contest General and Nomination Thread

    Hey, I just thought I'd make a thread for the popularity contest. Partially because I'm going to do the archive thread in the near future. I am mentioning it here because I plan on making it a locked thread as the first post will be the masterlist of contests and subsequent posts will contain...
