Why do you think people care so much about Top 10 and ranking lists?

Post by froggyboy604 »

I notice a trend that people care about a lot of top 10 lists like "Top 10 richest people, Top 10 fastest cars,...and the list goes on"

I think people care about ranking lists because they can be interesting like the Guiness world record book it is a list of number 1s.

because David Letterman does a top 10 every week >_>

but most likely because it's the best 10 things to get.

I think a few things;

1) They care because they want someone to look up to.

2) They want someone to try and become.

3) They generally need a list to survive? haha.

No it's just there idiots,

"top 10" lists are for small minds people i don't care what Gadget from the planet tomorrow was voted most likely to explode... well actually i do but that kind of list is never covered because it's alway "top 10 gaget with the best finish" or "top 10 useless firewall product" genereally they say firewall but when Zonealarm is anywhere in the top 50,000 it's not worth the paper it's printed on.
