Pokémon I Want To Eat, Ranked
Pokémon canon appears to ignore the very real issue of carnivory. Is there Pokémon husbandry? Which Pokémon are raised, or hunted, or caught and trapped as food? Can vegetarians eat Bulbasaur? Nintendo has dodged this issue too long. These are the Pokémon I think would be tastiest....
Sports LeBron James Could Take Up Today And Excel At, Ranked
We’ve got LeBron James Fever. All we’ve been doing for the past two days is talking about LeBron James. Now we’re making lists....
Bugs, Ranked
No matter what this list reveals, please know that mosquitos are the worst bug. Nothing fills me with a stronger desire to kill than seeing an entitled-ass mosquito flying around, likely high off of the blood and pain of an innocent passerby. They’re tiny and quiet and often hard to notice until aft...
Kitchen Utensils, Ranked
It’s time for us to play the ultimate game of knifey-spoony, folks. Yes, we’re ranking kitchen utensils on this week’s Deadcast, and I think you’ll be surprised about how strongly you feel about where spoons belong in the culinary hierarchy....
Birds, Ranked
Drew ranked the lamest birds over at GQ.com today, and we’re all fairly pissed at him for turning our work chatroom into a warzone filled with bird takes for a piece he didn’t even publish on this site. (Shout out to Burneko for his all-time terrible opinion, “seagulls are good.”)...
Barbecue Side Dishes, Ranked
It’s Friday afternoon and it’s rained for 900 consecutive days. Let’s fight about ranking barbecue side dishes. Are you ready? Here we go:...
Stop Interrupting People
When you move to a big city, and your social life largely migrates to cramped apartment parties and music-blaring bars, you may find yourself becoming your own worst enemy: an interruptor. Unless you have rare-bird bodily charisma or a god-voice booming enough (or shrill enough) to cut through any d...
Rockets Fans Express Their Confidence
I mean, can you really blame them?...
American Cities, Ranked
The staff of Deadspin is rather geographically diverse. We are centered in New York City, but we have outposts in D.C., Philly, L.A., Ohio, San Francisco, and Florida. Combine this with our argumentative nature and proclivity to rank things, and you can see where this is going (to the blog you are r...
Regular-Season Baseball Team Victories, Ranked
1. Win No. 1 (We’re not going to lose all our games)...
You Should Have Sex to Maxwell’s <i>Urban Hang Suite</i>
There’s a handful of artists who universally earn a spot on everyone’s sex playlists. Janet, Sade, Prince, etc. Their slow jams, classic and fuck-to-able, are made for cramming between the likes of the new Rihanna (“Yeah I Said It”) and that one flawless Weeknd song you squirm along to (“Earned It”)...
Popcorn Toppings, Ranked
Popcorn is good and good for you (probably; it’s a plant), and its greatest feature is its chameleon-like ability to be topped by whatever quasi-liquid or slush-based substance you have lying around. “But, I have so many possible toppings in my cupboard and/or well-stocked fridge?” you might ask, “W...
Cute And Good Puppy On The Field Gets Whisked Away Like A Little Baby
Capivariano FC beat Oeste 2-1 on Wednesday in some hot Campeonato Paulista action down in Brazil, but I don’t care about that and you don’t care about. What I care about and what you presumably will care about is this here furry Idiot On The Field. A Capivirano player was eventually able to befriend...
11 Irish Whiskies, Ranked
I’m not huge on green-tinted beer or white ethnic pride, but history has proven that St. Patrick came down on the right side of both snakes and day-drinking, which is reason enough to duck out of work at noon today to celebrate his birth-or-whatever. This year there’ll be the supplemental attraction...
Casual Dining Restaurants, Ranked
A couple days back, Complex published an interview with Allen Iverson, which you should most definitely read, if you want. In it, there were lots of good tidbits, but perhaps the primo tidbit came when Iverson swore his allegiance to T.G.I. Friday’s, which is something (erroneously!) attributed to h...
Televangelist Finally Discovers Direct Link Between Nick Saban And The Devil
We’ve long suspected a link between Crimson Tide head coach Nick Saban and the dark lord Satan—the names are just one letter away, jeez!—but here’s televangelist David Uth pointing out that the link between Alabama and sin is one inscribed in the Holy Bible....
13 Alcoholic Soda Pops, Ranked
American consumption of full-calorie soft drinks has been dropping for years now, as we’ve shown rare nutritional good judgment in demonizing soda as liquefied diabetes that makes you burp your rotted teeth out on the way to your long-overdue early grave....
Fox Sports Publishes, Deletes Bad Royals Blog
Today, Fox Sports published an article about how the 2015 Royals are “one of the worst AL teams” to win a World Series since 2000. One could make this oddly specific claim, provided one had stats and evidence to back it up. The article, however, had a list of batting averages. That was it....
12 Root Beers, Ranked
Any of you happy bastards still clinging to the Sober January charade? Me neither, thank goodness, but I do always try to dial the booze back a bit during the darkest stretch of winter. I figure it’s impossible to truly enjoy life during this accursed half-season, so why sully liquor’s good name by ...
