    While I appreciate the thought - thank you, Bill - the post isn't a
    narrative at all, is it? I mean, it doesn't really tell a story; it
    just talks about what the featured players are like. Nomination
    rejected.

    Oh god, I'm so drunk with power that I'm screwing over myself.

    I think it does tell a story, after a fashion, but whatever. The
    point is, what the hell am I supposed to nominate it as? "Best Post
    that inspired someone to cut-and-paste an immortal picture gallery
    of the biggest fucktards on Usenet?"

    There's Best Flame, but it has already been nominated in that
    category.

    I see a generic "flame" as something fairly short, and preferably a
    reply. A lengthy composition should go into a different category.

    Best Usenet Performance Art is a sort of a catch-all
    category,

    The term UPA has been so degraded by years of wretched
    productions by incompetent would-be comedians that
    I'd prefer to see it abandoned entirely.

    Oh my.

    Whatever will your pals say when they see you slagging their "UPA" like that, Billy?

    Apu Nahasapeemapetilon?
