Anyway, since tonight is Oscar night and I'm currently watching the Oscars, I decided to write my own Oscar acceptance speech. Usually, they're rather dull, so here, let me spice this up a little bit:
I would like to thank my family, my friends, and my cat to begin. I would also like to thank the people who voted for me, the people who watched my film, and all my fellow nominees who deserved to win far more than I did. However, we all know that this isn't really an accurate representation of talent, but rather on who has money and who has the most friends, so no hard feelings... maybe we can cut this ugly statue thing into five. Thank you to myself for working hard. Thank you to Effexor for making me less suicidal. Thank you to people who offered me a smile when I was feeling sad. Thank you to everyone who has done far better things than I have and have yet to receive the same recognition as I am receiving.
And that's more than enough thanks.
Yeah, I wasn't really expecting to win, so maybe I'll switch tactics now. The world can be a really shitty place. Fortunately, we have movies to remind us that many people - both fictional and real - have it far worse than us. So, finally, I would just like to remind us all to try to be gracious and treat everyone else with kindness. The world is hard enough without having other push you down. Remember that it isn't riches or fame that make us great; it's how good we are to others.
Thank you.
Seriously, there are billions of people watching. Make it count!
