Welcome to klugness.com!

The U.S. website www.klugness.com was launched in October 2022 with over 100 funny top ten lists. The site doesn't include jokes in the traditional sense, but is dedicated to humor using a David Letterman-style top ten list format. A portion of the content focuses on American politics, with the site generally leaning left, while the rest is garden-variety humor ala MAD magazine. We hope you enjoy the site!

This image of "elderly hippy performing at Woodstock concert" was created by Klugmeister using artificial intelligence software. The image doesn't depict a real person or situation. The image was reviewed by Klugmeister before posting on this web page. This image appears on List 172.

This home page shows the most recent top ten list. Please check out the full archive of funny top ten lists on klugness.com at All Top Ten Lists. Note these lists were created up to five years ago, even though the klugness site itself is only about a year old. The archive page also includes a "List Sampler" table of 18 selected funny top ten lists that will give you a sense of our content without having to tackle all 100+ funny top ten lists. Beneath the "List Sampler" is information about the pictures we've been adding to the site since the beginning of 2023, including a sampling of lists that are among the 20 new pictures that were dropped on June 12, 2023. The pictures are generated using a combination of artificial intelligence and traditional means.

The amount of content in our Imagining Things blog (currently 12 posts) isn't as robust as our top ten lists (currently about 200 lists), but that also means it's fairly quick and painless for visitors to check out the blog. While the rate of publication has slowed drastically since the initial burst of posts after the blog was launched in November 2022, we're pleased to share our long-awaited magnum opus Problem Solving Part 1—Newton's Method and Bisection Method. In this lengthy post, our webmaster engages in a deep dive regarding two mathematical problem solving approaches, and then tries to extrapolate those strategies to real life. Our li'l genius artist still hasn't finished drafting part 2 of this two-part post, but he's hoping that by posting part 1 he'll get the inspiration needed to finish part 2. Let's hope so!

Getting back to the funny top ten lists, we offer a couple of targeted subsets that focus on particular themes. For example, the Trump-Themed Lists are critical of former President Trump, so you won't like them if you're a Trump aficionado.

Another theme is the clever May 2020 Now vs. Then series, which consists of 10 funny top ten lists that compare and contrast the initial coronavirus times to historical times in an amusing way (e.g., "stay at home" vs. "rock and roll all nite"). That early pandemic theme was created just three years ago, but it feels sooo five years ago! Based on viewership of these pages, it appears that most folks are loathe to revisit that challenging period, and we don't blame you!

Note that the themed lists are also included on the All Top Ten Lists archive (i.e., the themed lists are a subset of the full archive), so if you looked at the full archive, you won't find any new material on the themed lists. This handy bit of intell could free up more time for you to gaze at your phone, work on solutions to supply change, or fret over Joe Biden's mental acuity.

If over 100 top ten lists is too much to handle all at once, another alternative is to check out samples of the more recent top ten lists:

  1. Top Ten Rationales Behind Airline Boarding Zones
  2. Top Ten Ways to Celebrate Pi Day (March 14)
  3. Top Ten Trump Quotes vs. Brady Bunch Episode Plots
  4. Top Ten Trump vs. Elvis
  5. Top Ten Pros and Cons of Retaining Alina Habba as Trump's Attorney
  6. Top Ten Alina Habba vs. Haley Dunphy
