    I am cynical, or is it more likely that the winner was voted in fOaR Le mEMes? I'm not invalidating your appreciation of the second entry, I'm just sceptical that it was elected in sincerity.

      I mean… memes can bring the same joy as art in their own way. I would argue that memes are a form of art anyway. A very accessible and universal type of art. If it inspired people to vote for it then they must have felt some kinda way even if it was just silly shenanigans

      This might be true, but there's something about how bad this picture is that I don't think I could do worse. It's uniquely bad in such a profound way that it would require real skill to make something more universally terrible.
