Best Use of Vanity to Shed Light on a Post-Cold War Crisis:
"I hope our lawns don't get ruined. Washington people are okay, But people from other places may not be as aware of how invested we are in the appearance of our property."
-Lillian Abenshon, a Bethesda Maryland homeowner, in response to Cuban protesters and the media walking around her daffodils, quoted from the Washington Post.

Lillian, we want you to know: Here at LostBrain we care about your lawn.

Best use of onomatopoeia in a public statement: Posh Spice
"We were out at dinner the other day and I was absolutely bursting for the toilet and it's quite sad to think you can't even go to the toilet because if you do, people are going to think you're throwing up." -Posh Spice, attempting to quash rumors sheÕs bulimic, as reported by E!.

(Posh was runner up for the best use of "toilet, toilet, and throw up in a single sentence, an honor already taken by Courtney Love.)
