Every award I have aspired to has been mocked, spat at and pissed on. Arundhati Roy winning the Booker. Mockery! 420 Mafia gets an Oscar. Pssplastt! And now the Oh!Bummer gets the Nobel. Pissers!
I may not have written a word towards my eventual Booker victory, or the lyric that will get me both Oscar and Grammy, but, even I have done more for peace than Oh!Bummer.
So I gathered my kids and used this as an example to teach them that not always do awards go to the deserving. Sometimes you get an award you don’t even want.
