Year-end lists


There is almost no end to the number and kinds of year-end lists…  fashion trends, top news stories, best and worst of _______.

So here are a few I found interesting!

Most annoying words of 2012
@thejanedough.com
Now here’s a fact you can’t simply blow off with a “whatever” or “whatevs”: the results of a new Marist poll find that Americans hate the defeatist, dismissive word “whatever” more than any other phrase, with empty “like,” unclear “you know,” and preachy “just sayin’” following close behind.

@google.com
Includes search phrases, images, athletes, events, hashtags and more.  A revealing look at our world and its focus!

@wikipedia.org
Both official estimates and census results

Best Inventions of the Year 2012
@techland.time.com
Truly weird and some truly frightening.

Yule Laugh, Yule Cry: 10 Things You Didn’t Know About Beloved Holiday Songs

Not really a year-end list but still…

Top 10 News Stories of 2012
