where is the hate?

A Google search for "fuck the webbys" yields a single hit.  This is preposterous; in a world filled with vapid awards, the Webbys make the Grammys seem meaningful and accurate.  Fuck the Webbys, and fuck the IADAS.

On the other hand, a Google search for "I hate Bono because" yeilds plenty.

OK, time to nominate rone for a Webby. Is there a curmudgeon category?

The Webbys? Sometimes, I am glad of my ignorance. I have a feeling this is just such an occasion.

I guess I could rewrite 'Fuck The Bees'.

Amuse yourself with this story about how to get nominated for the Webbies (http://dubiousquality.blogspot.com/2005/01/wow-webbies.html). A year later, the price had gone up fifty bucks (http://www.sfist.com/archives/2006/05/09/lets_buy_us_a_damn_webby.php).

Ah, nothing like adding disgust to my contempt. Thanks.

Way back in the land before time, I'm positive I saw a great picture of an ecstatic woman with the caption "I just sat on my webby award!"

But I saw it in print, possibly as a handbill or poster. And that phrase does not appear in Google.

Alas, the Google, it does many things but not all things well.
