The 2012 Teen Choice Awards

There’s a reason why teenagers aren’t allowed to vote in The Academy Awards: they aren’t yet old enough to fully understand how and why their taste in everything sucks. Which is why we gave them The 2012 Teen Choice Awards, a one night affair wherein man’s inhumanity to man reigns supreme and the most shoddily produced cash-grabs are rewarded for appealing to the absolute lowest common denominator.

What kind of self-respecting reality show would agree to give an award to The Kardashians? Honestly, if you’re ever forced into a situation where you must give an award to the multi-headed hydra of vapid awfulness known as The Kardashians, the only option you really have is to apologize for your life and self-immolate. It’s a much more humane fate than giving a giant surfboard to Kim Kardashian while smilingly pretending that she has actually accomplished something with her life.
