OMG I knew I should've written a speech!!!


Wow, this is totally the greatest honor I have ever received on Teh Internets.

Okay, it's actually the only honor I've ever received on Teh Internets, but still...

I'd like to thank the Academy... hey, why is the band playing? I'M NOT DONE YET!!!

Yeah, Funniest Post and Best Post didn't pan out this year. I would like to bring it back but I need to come up with a better way of bookmarking good candidates year round.

[antikristuseke]

Yeah, picking out the funnies post from year round seems like a massive ordeal since there are many members here with a great sense of humour.

For sure. But the hardest part is keeping track of the stuff that happens early in the year. After the Packers win the Superbowl I'll probably adjust my signature to have a link where people can make year round recommendations on Best Of candidates.

You know what this means to me?

Someone else has to wear the badge now! Thing is heavy!


Congrats to all the winners - you deserved it. So did the runners-up, but, well, THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE! The decisions were hard because there are always other deserving members. But there is also always next year.
