GLA #7: Funny geek lists

The original idea of the GeekListAggregator was to provide an overview of useful GeekLists. With #7 I may already start to contradict this very rational economic concept of "utility". It is difficult to not stumble over funny GeekLists. I don't know about you, but I just can't get around them. I have therefore tried to dig a few lists which appeared funny (more or less). And let me say this upfront: there are zillions of more fun lists, it's just my "randomness" picking here ;)

But now, without further ado:

GeekList Aggregator #7: Funny geek lists

GeekList #11497: 101 Reasons To Buy A Game by Joe Huber
The numbers around (The) One Hundred seems to be particularly important to boardgame geeks. You have certainly seen a whole enchilada of worthy games to buy. But why should you *really* buy games. Joe gives us more than enough reason...

GeekList #9640: You know you're a Game Geek when... by Mark Christiansen
The ultimate list of what defines a true boargame geek.

GeekList #9864: The Top 10 Reasons You May Be Boardgame Geek... by Paul Boos
Here we go for a David Letterman type of list. This one is probably more to the point, so we call it the shorter ultimate list of waht defines a true boardgame geek.

GeekList #10585: Intelligence Report on Subject #M33P135: The Meeples by Dave Lartigue (aka Legmancer)
The all time classic on meeples! Also mentioned earlier here. Probably the funniest ever!

GeekList #10988: The Geek's Funniest Pictures: A Collection of BGG Photo Humor by Ender Wiggins
A wonderful list aggregating the funniest pictures available on the Geek. I hadn't thought you serious gamers had it in you!

GeekList #5881: Collection of funny Image Comments by Robert Zurfluh
Oh, God, these are hilarious. Unfortunately some overlap to the earlier ones, though. But I guess this one was first as it bears the lowest GeekList number...

GeekList #11594: Game Show Proposals Based on Board Games by Jim Berry
A novel idea, taking boardgames to the boardgamesshow-level. The first comment by Nate Cokerill was simply "I'm scared of this list. Too much time..." Guess, I agree... :D


I think that's enough for the night. Enjoy...
