Top Ten Lists are pretty much what they sound like –
lists of 10 items in a particular category that stand out as the top tier of a possible bazillion items for consideration.
Tone generally varies, depending on mood and functional level of the day, as does format.
Some of my Top Tens here on ADD-and-so-much-more will consist of bullet-points without much explanation or context. Others will be augmented by comments of some sort, and a few will be more like articles with ten points.
Top Tens and ADD brains are made for each other:
Lists with ten items provide the perfect combination of flexibility and structure — with permission to vamp.
(Oh yeah, and because ADD Top Tens are generally written by ADDers, we can’t afford to be too literal about “top” or we’ll be ruminating over the pros and cons of inclusion ad infinitum.)
The subject matter of any particular ADD Top Ten List is limited only by the particular ADD mind of the author (which is like saying “limited by infinity”).
Laughing Out Loud . . .
you know you’re ADD when . . .
This little ditty began in the early 1990s on the AOL ADD forum, at a time when America on Line was one of the few places with a vital and rapidly growing community of ADDers. JIMAMS, the official leader of the ADD on-line group, was like the Energizer Bunny in his dedication to AOL’s leadership in the ADD online community.
