JWT, the world’s best-known marketing communications brand, released its list of 100 Things to Watch in 2010. According to them, the following things, people, and trends will make a mark in the next twelve months as leaders in their respective fields. Sounds exciting.

I’m still a bit of a skeptic with entries like (Number 7) Bacon Everywhere: I don’t hate bacon. In fact, I love it to bits, and strips. But I cannot imagine what exactly “bacon everywhere” implies? Bacon t-shirts? Bacon day?; (Number 40) Harry Potter in Orlando: Again, this entry begs the question, “WTF?”; (Number 99) The Wonder Girls: If you were one of those people secretly clapping their hands twice whenever the chorus of Nobody played on the radio, this wouldn’t be a surprise. But if you weren’t, this would be an insult; and (Number 44) Ironic Sports: How can sports be ironic? Is it like Tiger Woods, a golf player and a playah? I’d say that’s ironic
