That's how I accept all my awards. I say this isn't about me it's about all the losers that you all don't care enough about to pay any attention to. Then I say you're welcome.

using your criteria, you could make an argument that pretty much no one but Nelson Mandela actually deserved the award:

most of those people i've never heard of, or if i've heard the name, i don't really know what they did. i'm fine with smith and carlos in addition to mandela.

I bet sitting next to sys at your HS award banquet where 80% of the students get an award for some stupid thing would be amaze

as a person of a certain age, I have little to no awareness of jenner as a sports figure

As an "old dude" who happened to be the state's best pole vaulter and top 5 in the nation in my age group when the "Wheaties box series" cam out, I insisted that my mom buy me this box of cereal...

Suffice it to say that they weren't nearly as tasty as frosted lucky charms...

sys wants you to pay the iron price for your bobble.

Kinda sick of seeing the picture. While we're at it, I don't want to see cis gendered 65 year olds with fake tits in bustiers either. Call me an age bigot, if you must.

the only thing i have a problem with is the name. caitlyn? i mean, give me a break lady. ain't no caitlyns under the age of 50 running around and you have to be pushing 70. mary jenner? sure. dorothy jenner? absolutely. ruth jenner? you better believe it. caitlyn jenner? uh, no. try again.

Elizabeth Jenner is classy and dignified.

i don't feel like explaining the reference. it is fairly accurate.

is bobble a katdaddyesque pun? do you mean bauble? are you suggesting that i think a person should only receive an award if they surgically alter their sex? or that i think they should have to kill someone? neither is remotely accurate.

It's pretty wild that Jenner:

1) achieved international fame among an older generation for his athletic prowess
2) completely unrelated to #1, became famous to a new generation as a bit player in reality tv shows rooted in amateur porn
3) is about to become most famous yet as the face of transgender people, in part to the prior fame in #1 & 2

She's probably gonna be the 1st person to walk on Mars or something in 10 years.

Are we supposed to refer to her as 'she' when speaking about the past when she was still a he during that time?

It realy is an amazing career arc. Not to mention the tangential connection to all the OJ drama.
