MSN Name: 75%, and oops, I said "gay guy"

So, SSMU awards last night. We were nominated for Event of the Year (March of Hearts), Service of the Year (Queer McGill), Volunteer of the Year (Floh.com, and Campus Life Fund (Vagina Monologues. We won for everything but March of Hearts, so congrats to QM for these fabulous achievements!

And now to bitch. The emcees were terrible. They had a list of "words not to say" which included fat, ugly, and a couple other similar things, and "gay guy." Props to Michelle who later said "oops I said gay guy" while accepting our award. Also, they decided to call it the "special olympics of awards," as well as making Nagasaki jokes, and saying that the "mousy girl would get more play because it's open bar." OMG. WTF!? They varied between horribly offensive and just plain not funny. They also said "it wasn't me kissing your sister on Crescent Street..." so Jen decided to say that it *was* her kissing your sister on Crescent Street. I enjoyed that.

The best part of the night (aside from the obvious - winning and open bar, hello!) was that when we got Service of the Year, our whole table jumped up and screamed, and then all walked up to get the award, but we got a friggin huge standing ovation. By friggin huge I mean like 4 tables, but it was still big compared to what anyone else got and compared to how many people were there.

Also, I gotta give a shout out to the engineers, who were with us in solidarity, largely because we both hated the emcees, but they were totally cheering for us when we won and vice versa.

So yay! GO US. Come by the office and check out our award(s)!
