(10) Hello. My name is UGA HATES AUBURN.

In 1998, the SEC was expanded to include Georgia and Auburn, a pair of upstart football programs. Ever since, a "football first" mentality has emerged in both Savannah and Birmingham. The passion has even spread to Georgia's mascot, George the Dog! Look out, Aggies!

(2) Hi, I am RANDY JOHNSON HITS BIRD.

As expected, I decimated my first-round opponent, 1,030 to 195. I am one of the most well-known animated GIFs of any sort, anywhere. It’s interesting to assess your own reaction to me.

Am I funny? I mean, a bird died. Birds aren’t people, but they aren’t fruit flies either. They possess an intellect. They’re curious. They’ll perch on a rail and gawk at you. They have friends. They speak a language, albeit a simple one. They love their babies. So why do you love me? Am I simply startling and interesting? Or do you delight in me, you monster?

VOTE!
