Etymology

[edit]

"It has also been suggested that the word evokes "popsicle", emphasising the fun but "not too nutritious" nature of the listicle." - I had always assumed that the word was meant to evoke "testicle", reflecting the fact that most of these non-articles are complete bollocks. It certainly shares more letters. Has no-one else sufficiently independent to provide verifiability pointed this out? --87.224.68.42 (talk) 15:09, 25 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

There is a difference between a serious critic's list and a listicle. To suggest that Sir John Lubbock's book list was a listicle is ludicrous. The listicle is a 21st Century phenomenon. GnatFriend (talk) 21:08, 4 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
