Having a hard time finding anything that’s not purely anecdotal. I remember reading something that one of the reasons as kids get old they think their parents are full of sh** is an evolutionary one designed to get teenagers to leave their tribes and reduce chances of inbreeding or something but ofc I can’t find it anymore.

But I swear the amount of times I tell my kid xyz and then a random adult tells it to them once and they’re like omg mom did you know xyz… I want to rip out my hair. This can’t be an isolated thing, can it?

So I have this half baked idea and I want to make it a thing. Think of the Dundee awards but for cancer. Idk about you but dark humour has been my best coping mechanism and I want to spread this for every other person that has to join the worlds worst roller coaster.

Off the top of my head just a couple of categories:

Most unhinged Facebook comment
Ragiest steroid moment
Shittiest day
Caregiver of the year
Best use of cancer card
Most stabbed
Worst side effect (I would like to nominate myself for fucking toe herpes)

I want to fully bake the idea lol and I was wondering if anyone wants to help me make this idea a reality because I need some people to bounce ideas off of! Any takers?
