The Friday Awards

The Friday Awards

By Emily Winter

Have you been afflicted with Friday Award Withdrawal Syndrome, since we took last week off? We've been jonesin' to hand out some awkwards awards allll week, and we're thrilled Friday's finally here. Happy weekend, Sparklers!

Nickname of the Week goes to ProposeWithOreos

The Mind-Reading Award goes to AuriChan for these two comments about Christmas movies...

The Polar Express my sister's favourite movie. We watch it at least once every month. Every month. At least. Usually more. It drives me nuts.

Oh my god...that was scary. I just typed my comment and my sister comes in, demanding to watch the Polar Express again today.

*~*NEW!*~* Nerd of the Week Award goes to bpotatoe for a comment on this post...

And I know that you are going to say that you will never use those in day to day life, but everything you know is based off of science. The universe we live in is based off of the acceleration of a particle the approximate size of a hydrogen atom that had an infinite density that for some reason exploded with enough velocity to hurdle the contents of the universe away from it. The universe is still expanding today. Everything you know of, experience; every force (gravity, strong, and electro-weak), have been scientifically discovered by physics because of things like limits and derivatives. Although they may seem mundane to you, they are YOU! We are all just a set of equations, a formation of elements in this huge universe... and science has proved that.

I know, high school science and math may seem rudimentary, boring, ect, but it is always useful to be informed about the world that you live in. To know why you exist.

Happy Birthday to jewbiegirl!

...to lman888 for this comment on the post My Crush is Dead...

In love with a dead person 100 years your senior. You're beginning to sound like Bella Swan.

...to penguins_quack for this comment on the ZOMG post...

I like to think that the Z in ZOMG stands for Zombies. Because we all like to shout out "Zombies! Oh my God!"
I think it is fitting

...to nolli024 this new comment on an old post...

Meeting a teacher in the real world is scary!!

I was at the mall with my friends in the food court, and one of my teachers
saw me. And of course there was an empty table right next to us!! So,
general conversation then out of nowhere she says:
Your boobs have gotten bigger!!

...to shenanigan_QUEEN for this comment on hall-walking...

We have this kid at our school, who we have dubbed 'the backpack boy'. This boy has his backpack on all the time - ALL THE TIME - including while he is sitting at his desk, running laps in gym, and eating lunch. I am even willing to bet my first born child that he wears his backpack while using the bathroom. He has a signature way of...travelling through the hallways. It's very...erm...different...
He grabs onto his backpack straps, screams out some sort of strange warbled war-cry, and then goes sprinting down the hallway, head bent down like he's doing hurtles at army camp and we are gun-wielding juvenile delinquents rather than just ordinary, tired high school kids who really just want to be sleeping.
Ah, the backpack boy.
He's a legend, that one is.

...to naominish for this comment about the baseball post...

Caulfield would make a better catcher... just sayin.'

...to lavendercrayons for this comment on the same post...

Meanwhile, on the home team, Humbert Humbert cannot stop staring at Juliet.

...to klhofer for this comment on counselors...

My counselor misspelled my name eight out of ten times in my letter of recommendation to my first choice university. Yeah.
It's difficult to describe the frustration I feel without smashing my laptop and removing my own organs simultaneously. Then placing the organs in a box with the smashed laptop and wrapping the box and leaving it on her desk. I hope she hates organs and smashed laptops...

...to sadhbhkelleher for this comment on gifting...

PAPER MACHÉ PEOPLE!!!!

You can make anything out of paper maché . . .

Your friend wants an iPhone? Make it out of newspaper and glue. None will be the wiser.

And they totally appreciate it.

Ohhhhh Emmmm Geeeee Points for stuff that's so ridiculous we can hardly believe it goes to SongByrd94 for this comment on the counselor post...

Our counselors charge us $5 just to make an appointment....if you don't have the $5 with you, then they won't even see you....its stupid
