Re: Hugo Nominations

I think the yearly kerfluffle over the Hugos is getting quite ridiculous. Both sides are basically being jerks to each other. “The people you thought should be nominated are stupid and stop the people I think should be nominated!” Both parties scream. They simply egg each other on and dare the other side to take more and more drastic matters. Authors on both sides write books upon books worth of snide comments and proof of their superiority. One side simply favors self important-intellectual-newspeak and the other crass verbal bludgeoning. It’s all very fun to watch, but not very productive.

That being said, I think there should be a new award where instead of a crappy statue the winner is given an actual puppy.
