There was apparently an Excel World Championship the other day and I wasn't invited.
| Quote: |
15 year old student, Rebecca Rickwood from the UK, has won the most recent Microsoft Excel World Championship. Also, there is a Microsoft Excel World Championship. I’m really not sure which one is the bigger story. Rickwood was one of 228,000 competitors from over 57 countries that are both aware of and participate in this competition. At a ceremony held yesterday, Rickwood was awarded a $5,000 prize, which is a whopping $5,000 dollars more than most Microsoft Excel users ever win for using Excel, regardless of how well they do it.
Rickwood was, of course, ecstatic about the win. “It’s a day I’ll never forget,” she told the BBC. Her Microsoft Excel coach, who is a Microsoft Excel coach, was thrilled as well, saying “I don’t know who was more excited, [her father] or me!” Of course, this victory did not come without hard work and training montages. Rickwood reached her peak by practicing at lunch-time and after school, presumably only taking time to relax by coding a quick database in Microsoft Access. According to one of Rickwood’s teachers, her classmates, who also know that this competition exists, are extremely proud of her. |

This is obviously a smokescreen. They may say she won an Excel competition, but really, she won a hacking competition and is now helping the government hack into terrorist and alien computers.

I can't imagine Excel being my highest excitement in life.
"School's out! Got to go load up Excel!"
I wonder what other Championships Microsoft has.
