I don't really see the point of these lists myself, but you take it way too seriously. It's just a name he gave to albums which are #11 in their respective categories Razz Relax!

There's seriously just no point at all to these lists. I'm pretty sure no one in there right mind would go, "Gee, I wonder what the #11 albums in each category are OH LOOK A LIST FOR IT". I couldn't care less, honestly.

This.

Look, I disagree with pretty much everything Listmeister says on here about music and movies and even life in general from what I can tell, and not one of these lists has been of any interest whatsoever to me, but fuck it. Let the man make his lists in peace.
