Wow great post! This compilation is awesome! thanks for this 👍

When you find a listicle with more than 10 items don't read it and jump to the comment section to say this is great. Maybe your comment will get upvoted and the author will be encouraged to add another listicle (where he will repeat some of the old items because no one will notice this)

and don't forget to bookmark the post because you will .. nah! you will not read it because you don't even know where to find the bookmarked posts and when you will find it, it will be a list of 157 listicle posts.

Thinking about it...how can I possibly listen to your advice, you always use 100 which has far too many factors...and you actually create things instead of copy pasting...that takes waaaaay too much effort.....learn the ways of the listicle! 🤣🤣🤣

Crap did it again...I meant to say:

"Thanks for reading"

I will learn eventually!

well, I am still new to this community so I don't have enough experience to try listicle 😕 and copying/pasting always break the formating and it takes time to rectify ... until I get used, I have to write my own things 😔

I actually did LOL at that. I don't do that often but for some reason this comment tickled me!

"Thanks for reading"

Thanks, those are some super great points, I will be sure to release the same post in a few months but with those two points added so it can be an "Updated for 2022" post!

Crap, I broke another rule, I actually responded to you properly instead of just saying:

"thanks for reading".

My apologies!
