The movie Election was about a student body president election. One of the candidates got disqualified, leaving Reese Witherspoon and Chris Klein running. Chris Klein’s character was such a nice guy he voted for Reese Witherspoon’s character, and he ended up losing by one vote. And then Matthew Broderick’s character falsified the results because he hated Reese Witherspoon’s character. In the analogy, I guess that means that Grant hates you.

They’re all funny. Xanthan is sort of a jack of all trades, where he’s near or at the top in all categories, but he might not win any. I voted for Lars as the funniest though, because I wasn’t nominated. Like any great artist, my humor won’t be appreciated until long after I’m gone.
