Amazing work, Wanders. You brought back so many memories of 2012. It will be hard to choose between Floating Gina in the Window and Dawn 's lewd comment about Dave in front of her father (and Michaelangelo).
ReplyDeleteAlso, I didn't realize there was so swearing this year! Moy's going blue.
So many flashbacks to so many wonderful stories to... how much time I've spent on this blog!
ReplyDeleteWhat a @&*$#ing wonderful life!
Wow--Christmas come early! Can't wait to read and vote at lunch!
ReplyDeleteThis poll must have taken you forever to put up! Thank you. It was wonderful to see all of the
ReplyDelete"highlights" of 2012 and I can't wait for the awards.
Given the seemingly endless Dawn Weston saga, it's hard to believe there were 3 other stories to consider. Thanks for a fun year, Wanders!
ReplyDeleteVoting for the Worthy Awards is so much more fun than the recent political elections.
ReplyDeleteNow about this conversation between Mary and John Dill. How often have you suddenly turned your back on a person with whom you are having a conversation? Mary did it Wednesday, and John did it yesterday and again today. I'm sure it would appear rather odd to someone observing these two from a distance. Again, you have to wonder if Moy choreographed this scene, or did Uncle Joe come up with it on his own.
So much awesomeness! Thanks Wanders.
ReplyDeleteOne other category to consider - best food of the year:
- Giant unicorn cake
- Ghost pie
- Kelk casserole
- Salmon squares
- Vegetable tureen
- Weird white casserole with bacon strips on top for Wilbur
- other __________
Rainbow Swirl ice cream!
DeleteYahoonski nailed it. Dawn's story has been going on so long I'd forgotten about the other stories. Ahhh Gina, my favorite ever-ponytailed waitress!
ReplyDeleteThe two hardest choices for me? Picking between Jim and the Magical Hobo, and then picking between Gina in the Sky or Reminds me of Dave. Whew, that was tough! I agree with Anonymous, best food of the year award!
Voting for me was relatively easy in all the categories other than "Best Regular Character". I couldn't decide which one was the least dismal and couldn't decide, so I didn't vote that category.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the good work and brain-spraining time you put in on this, Wanders.
I can understand if Chin Napkin feels slighted. Looks like he may be the victim of a vicious conspiracy against his awesome appearance and Uncle Joe's secret agenda to make Moy look foolish, not that she needs his help.
ReplyDeleteIt always so tough to choose only 1.
ReplyDeleteI'd forgotten that even Wilburwas asking back in May about Dawn: " How long will this go on?! "
But where's Mr. Trololo this year?
ReplyDeleteWhat awesome choices! I had forgotton Wilbur's "Jazz Hands", and anonymous co-worker's big rubber finger.
ReplyDeleteThis is my first time voting on the Worthy Awards, and it was so much more fun than the recent November frolics. I'm just glad that there were no negative, Super-Pac sponsored ads influencing our choices. (I'm from Ohio. It was torture.)
I'm not implying anything, but how many times may we vote?
ReplyDeleteWanders, thanks for your hard work in assembling the nominees! I hope it didn't leave you with a colossal headache. What a trip along Santa Royale Memory Lane! I'd forgotten how much Mr. Giella's version of "David" resembles Steve Martin.
ReplyDelete@Anonymous at 9:15 AM, a category for food would be quite an addition. Mary's vegetable terrine vs. pink unicorn cake - oy!
unfair putting jims new arm againest chin napkin who should win every year. life is brutal was so long i forgot there were other storys this year
ReplyDeleteThank you, Wanders, this was so much fun! This is only my second Worthy Awards vote and the first full year I've followed the strip & this blog. What a year it's been- I've laughed out loud at everyone's comments and your brilliant captioning. Am sending a PayPal donation your way :)
ReplyDelete@Delilah: Mr Trololo performed at the awards ceremony last year, which we'll have in January. This is just the initial vote.
ReplyDelete@Sandi Ego: THANK YOU!
I vote for the hapless cruise ship waif who says "I help" (aiuto) instead of "help me" (aiutame).
ReplyDeleteI LOL'ed (and then screamed out #$*@#!$ after falling out of my chair) at the Jim "Bob," a delightful nod to Twin Peaks.
ReplyDeleteYa know, that floating-Gina-head panel is absolutely outstanding and, IMHO, would be Panel of the Year were it not for Dawn's "reminds me of Dave" comment.
ReplyDelete--Beagle Vet
Floating Gina Head! Floating Gina Head!
ReplyDeleteLife is Brutal.
