The Bob Awards winners!

They’re here. The biggest, most important movie awards ceremony on the planet that is named after a person whose name is a palindrome. There are no trophies, no red carpet, but there are Red Robin gift certificates that will arrive in the mail boxes of the winners sometime in the next four to six weeks.* My apologies to everyone from Mad Max: Fury Road last year for the non-existence of Red Robin in Australia. Please contact your local…whatever you call senators there; I can’t be bothered to look it up. I didn’t want them to go to waste so I just sent extra ones to a few of the Carol people. This is w- Wait. Where was I going with this? Oh, yes. The Bob Awards. The winners. They’re here. So read them. If ya wanna.
