Oh hey there. Did I just see you on Autostraddle’s new social networking feature? Do you, uh.. wanna go on a picnic with me? What if I bring some of these hot chicks? What about then? Also I know some people who are making a cool webseries, maybe we can invite them too. If all else fails, we can just learn the Judas dance and start a dance party.
Also I didn’t know how to fit this in, but Sebastian wrote this really great article about his newfound heteronormative privilege, and Sarah totally warmed our hearts with this story about students protesting their anti-gay graduation speaker.
(Also I can’t believe it took me this long to make a Friday joke?!)

The Coming Out Award to Grace_B:
I did it like this:
ME: Hey mom, I’m going to Fame tonight, so I’ll be home late
HER: Isn’t that a gay bar?
ME: Yeah, I’m going there to meet girls, cause I’m bisexual.
Yep, I totally came out over text message.

emily i’m in a big fight with you for getting this song in my head every time i go to the autostraddle home page.
BIG FIGHT.
Damn it, now it’s stuck in my head again too. I need some brain bleach or amnesia so I can permanently forget it.
fight fire with fire, go to youtube and listen to it once more.
works for me.
i’m convinced that my comment award magic comes from my daria avatar. either way, thanks emily!
i must say, your daria avatar is awesome
and you shared your magical daria comment sparkles with me, and I appreciate that greatly!
also thanks for the award miss emily giver of awards; I feel super witty, though I still probably can’t compete with some of the duper quick neon minds on here =p
THANK YOU CARMEN SANDIEGO. yours is also sexy.
softly, if you do acquire a rainbow envelope please send one my way. its okay if it doesn’t play ani difranco. i’ll just sing “not a pretty girl” as i open it.
“The terracottatoes award for freaking terracottatoes to terracottatoes”
I’ve been waiting for this. Well deserved TCT, well deserved!
Thanks as always to the academy (Emily)!
x 2 :) she’s hilarious.
I never suspected that appreciating a good bit of ASS would get me a comment award!
see what happens when you turn the other cheek?
I love team pun comment awards. I can really get behind assisting fellow straddlers to crack a good pun, you know?
ASSisting.
double heaader! oh snappp. merci beaucoupzzz!
AHhahahah. As if I got a comment award for being the worst daughter on earth.
OH MY GODDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD.
:D :D :D :D
<3
you’ve earned it
YES!
These comment awards give me a better sense of accomplishment than when I get all green lights on the way home. =)
So I’m at a friend’s house and she hears me go “HOLY FUCK I GOT ONE” and then shortly afterwards “HOLY FUCK I GOT ANOTHER ONE” and I just didn’t know how to explain what I’d won. I told her I won the internet.
you kinda did
like Janis says, you did :D
your prize
kat scores a double-double
This immediately made me think of In-N-Out. If comment awards = 4×4 animal styles, I’d try much harder to be funny.
Also if this makes no sense to anybody, In-N-Outs are heavenly hamburger places that are primarily West-Coast.
if the comment awards came with animal fries and a chocolate shake i’d hire a ghost writer!
you don’t need one, you’re plenty funny as you are :)
awwww thanks
Yay, I got the 40 Quarters Award! I actually ended up giving 3 x 40 quarters, so that’s quite appropriate :) Sorry again, Obama.
Haha I totally made a gay carebear stare photo a few years ago.

We gays all think the same thoughts….that’s what makes us so terrifying.
you’re the hottest teletubby i’ve ever seen
considering the circles i run in, this is s a pretty big compliment
Can there be a comment award on the comment awards post?
There exists a precedent.
my name is yodelmachine, and i’m voting terracottatoes for autostraddle historian.
I’d like to thank the academy…
Seriously though, thank you. Made my night.
Finals happened and I started neglecting autostraddle and my friend just informed me that I won comment awards this week and last week. Both about Glee. YESSS
