Announce They Wouldn’t Mind Webby
Award Nomination
At a last-minute press conference called
at the National Press Club building in Washington,
D.C., Brandon Stahl, Eric Butterman, and
Travis Daub announced that LostBrain.com
wouldn’t mind being nominated for
a Webby Award.
“We wouldn’t mind winning it
either,” added Stahl, clearly in the
grip of a fit of delusional grandeur. “We
realize that the Onion wins the humor category
every year virtually uncontested—but
we’d still like to take a shot."
"After all, that Onion’s gotta
go rotten one of these days,” smirked
Daub. Stahl and Butterman congratulated
Daub for his brilliant metaphor by letting
out ‘hoots’, ‘yelps’,
‘yah-dawg’s, and granting him
high fives.
Connie Chung, eating lunch next door, was
not amused.
“Just to clarify,” added Butterman,
“we do want to be nominated.”
The press conference closed to an air-guitar
performance courtesy of Stahl keyed to the
Baha Men classic: Who Let the Dogs Out.
Daub and Butterman sang backup.
