Just reading the references for each of these is gold!

I can’t quite figure out why “ Supercentenarians and the Oldest-Old Are Concentrated into Regions with No Birth Certificates and Short Lifespans” is an ignoble candidate let alone winner.

This has been long suspected, makes perfect sense and in my mind isn’t funny, just logical.

Why is it the 34th "first annual" ceremony?

Is it humor or is there something deeper?
