Tradition demands that every year, just before the new year begins, we bestow superlatives upon everything. So let's get to it. I'll start:
- Phrase that you never want to hear again: "I'd like to thank the entire population of New Zealand..." Enough with the Kiwis already!
- Celebrity you never want to see again: Anna Nicole Smith. Her drunken appearence at the AMAs was just plain embarassing, and just goes to show that you can take the fat out of the whore, but you can't take the whore out of the... erm... whore.
- Most egregious investigative journalism: "Murder in Laramie" by 20/20. Elizabeth Vargas tries to prove that Matthew Shepard's murder was not a hate crime by interviewing the two killers, but that's not the worst part. No, the worst part was that one of the killers was hoping that the interviews would help him get a retrial. For shame.
- Best villain in a cartoon: Slade, from "Teen Titans". He kicked the Titans' collective ass, brainwashed Terra, and gave Robin a bad case of temporary insanity. Awesome!
