We don't have much of a blogroll here at Girlspoke, so it's fun to give some respect to fellow bloggers that walk the line around here. Plus, it's another reason for me to cop-out of doing a legitimate post. I got a message from a reader the other day that directed me to a site that would certainly tickle my fancy. The website is called 5ives, which is all lists, all the time. Could you ask for anything better? No. The answer is, no. No you cannot.

Let me share my favorites so far…but I've yet to delve deep into the archives:

Five Groups, apart from "women and children", who should get to leave a sinking ship first:

1. people who always use turn signals
2. persons who have never purchased a greeting card
3. Broken Social Scene
4. everyone who can and does continue to publicly breakdance
5. un-ironic wearers of suspenders

Clever, no? I'm partial to the turn-signal users. Though, I'd probably have some subtle differences if I'd made this list myself:

Jenna's Five Groups, Apart from "women and children", Who Should Get to Leave a Sinking Ship:

Note: "Myself" is not listed because I'd fall into the default category. Otherwise, I'd be number one.

1. Those who have accidentally flatulated–loudly–in public, at any point in their lifetime.
2. Victims of mailbox vandalism.
3. Anyone who has never, intentionally, eaten flax or any of its derivatives.
4. People that get slightly annoyed when they see emoticons, public display of poor spelling, or improper use of end-sentence punctuation.
5. Marines. Who else would give me mouth-to-mouth if I fell victim to…you know…the humid oceanic air?

And the next best?

Five kitchen tools that sound kind of dirty:

1. chocolate fountain
2. melon baller
3. meat baster
4. boning knife
5. corn holders

This is obviously right up my alley, so to speak. Not only is it a list, but it's also sexual and immature–two adjectives that I always use when filling out one of those email forwards from a friend that ask me to describe myself! Again, this had me thinking of a Jenna translation…

Jenna's Five Surgical Tools That Sound Kind of Kinky:

1. Glass Bead Mirror Warmer
2. Aspirating Suction Tubes
3. Bulldog Clamps
4. Bone Elevators
5. TIE: Headlights or Sphygmomanometers and B-P Cuffs

I bet you never knew surgery could be so much fun!

Now, go over and check out 5ives.com and tell me what your favorite list is. Or do you have another favorite site that you think we should all know about? Share it in the comments section! It's Show and Tell time, kiddies!
