The President of the American Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, Tom Sherak, announced today that the acting nominations for its most popular event, the Academy Awards, will include all actors that said “fuck you” in a passable Boston accent.
The president didn’t specify what would qualify as a passable Boston accent, but it is assumed that all major actors of “The Town” and every actor that had a speaking role in “The Fighter” will qualify for a nomination.
“I don’t really care about any other words in the accent, but I just love the way those white trash Bostonians say fuck you. It’s like fack you … well, no. Actually more like fawk you,” Sherak said.
“I don’t know. Just watch Jeremy Renner in that Ben Affleck movie. He does a great one. Or all those sisters in Wahlberg’s movie, they do a bunch of good ones.”
