The real winner is Monster


Monster didn't win the contest. Why didn't Monster win the contest? If Monster had won, the judges would have been forced to admit that all the other dogs were so meaningless beside him, utter genetic dead ends with the same kind of owners. But it's too late, the secret of Monster's awesomeness has been revealed for the world to see, and the shelters are now inundated with people turning in their dogs, because now they have seen what a real dog is, and they are ashamed and disgusted with their own dogs.

No, to even admit Monster's existence would be to confirm the futility of all future dog contests. The APF might as well award Monster first place pro-actively for the next 100 years, because that's how long it will take before a dog more awesome then Monster graces their presence again. Rather than admit this to themselves, to bathe in the ultimate futility of all the rescues, fund-raising and indeed their entire life's work, it was easier to award the first prize to a Beagle.

* I copied most of this from Barney cat's personal notebook. I rephrased it to be about Monster.
