10 Most Bizarre Awards

By Miss Cellania in Everything Else on Dec 13, 2009 at 10:51 pm

Some of the stranger awards of the world should be familiar to you because they’ve been featured here on Neatorama. Others may be completely new to you, such as the Shorty Awards for the best Twitter Tweets, or the Foot-in-Mouth Awards, given to a public figure for something dumb he or she said.

The Foot in Mouth Award is awarded each year by the British Plain English Campaign for “a baffling comment by a public figure”. This is given, appropriately, to a public figure who has said something completely stupid. It’s awarded every year by the British Plain English Campaign. Previous winners include: “I know who I am. No one else knows who I am. If I was a giraffe and somebody said I was a snake, I’d think ‘No, actually I am a giraffe.’†(Richard Gere) and “I love England, especially the food. There’s nothing I like more than a lovely bowl of pasta.†(Naomi Campbell).

    “…something dumb her or she said.”? A little bit sexist there, no? ROFL!!!

    My son would love that Cowboy and Octopus book. I think I’ll have to take a look around the internets for it…
