2007 @jacksonwest 20 June in twitter.com (O.E.D. Archive) Making poke chops and smack'n'wheeze, writing listicles.
2008 San Jose (Calif.) Mercury News (Nexis) 12 Aug. The latest in a series of mildly interesting but nonetheless ultimately useless listicles from Forbes (do they even run real stories any more?) is about the best-paid celebrity chefs.
2010 L. Penny More Money than Brains ii. 43 The press is simply nutty for listicles and star ratings, which are ways of converting culture into easily telegraphed quanta.
2015 N.Y. Post (Nexis) 5 Jan. 24 Its cover story on the 40 best apps for the iPhone and iPad operating system is largely indistinguishable from any listicle you can get for free from Gizmodo or Cnet.
