See I can't help but be annoyed by the excuse of 'this list isn't serious' as a way of deflecting people inquiring into it. This isn't specifically aimed as AWW, but a more general trend that has emerged.

I mean, this isn't a very serious list, but at the same time if people want to criticise the choices I've made or ask why I made them, I'm not going to tell them 'no stop it's not serious'.
