It’s called the Helen Hokinson Dowager Death-Ray Prize, and you just might retire it next year. So far, however, your sense of humor keeps that goal just inches from your grasp. Another problem is, whenever you say “Well, I _never_!” absolutely _no_ one has the courage to suggest that, well, you know.

. . . which is why I usually say, “_well, really!_” (No one ever knows what I mean when I say I have turned into a [Helen Hokinson matron](http://www.askart.com/askart/h/helen_elna_hokinson/helen_elna_hokinson.aspx).)

Most hours logged on parents’ couch…

Most food consumed while posting…

Most knowledge of inane and pointless trivia…

Most pretentious spelling/grammer corrections…

Most use of annoying-ass cliches…

Most jobs started in a single year…

Not sure who to nominate. I just thought these would be great categories.

Awww… :: rugxigxo ::  
I might have nominated **matt\_mcl** for that one, except that I nominate him for the “Demographic Specificity Award (Left-handed Francophone Socialist Pagan Esperanto-speaking Parliamentary-candidate Division)”, and can someone be nominated for more than one award?

Awards for the best and the brightest  
Require a touch of the lightest.  
How to single out one  
From so many, such fun,  
And offend none? I haven’t the slightest.
