"The Hundred Best Lists of All Time"

A lot of lists from the New Yorker:

100. Generations of Adam (Genesis)*
99. Satchel Paige’s “How to Keep Young”
98. The Crain’s New York Business “40 Under 40”
97. Gentlemen Golfers of Leith’s “Articles & Laws in Playing at Golf”
96. The World Rock Paper Scissors player’s responsibility code
95. Maxim’s “Hot 100”
94. Benjamin Franklin’s “Thirteen Virtues”
93. Benjamin Tusser’s “Five Hundred Points of Good Husbandrie”
92. The Rules
91. U.S. News and World Report’s best-college rankings
90. McDonald’s Big Mac-ingredients commercial

89 more in an ordering that gets more interesting the lower you go.
Sort of a limbo list.
