The Golden Globes 2010 was trickery

In case you missed it, the 2010 Golden Globes were yesterday. I tuned in for a second because I thought Golden Globes was a euphemism for Best Breasts in the Industry, but I quickly threw my remote down in disgust when I found out I had been tricked again. Can they do that? Isn’t that, like, false advertising? Thankfully, Halle Berry and a few other celebs made up for it. I ended up having my own awards show. In my pants. Hey-o!

List of nominees/winners under the cut. Ones I didn’t agree with: Mostly Avatar for Best Drama. Sure, it had nice 3D effects, big, blue, naked cats and an epic run time, but that over Inglourious Basterds?
