6

πŸ† 1. SALTINEST MALE OF THE YEAR

Winner: Donald Trump

For extraordinary achievements in complaining, arguing, insulting, announcing things dramatically and generally finding something to be annoyed about.

Mr. Salty's verdict:
"Frankly, nobody else was even close." πŸ˜‚


πŸ† 2. SALTINEST FEMALE OF THE YEAR

Winner: Piers Morgan's Twitter/X mentions

Yes, we're cheating slightly.

But the sheer volume of outrage, arguments and “YOU'RE WRONG!” deserves recognition.

Acceptance speech:
"We'd like to thank absolutely nobody."


πŸ† 3. SALTINEST FOOTBALLER

Winner: JosΓ© Mourinho

Not technically a current player — but frankly, he belongs in the Salties Hall of Fame.

Managers, referees, journalists, opposition players...

Nobody escapes Mourinho's salt shaker. πŸ§‚⚽


πŸ† 4. SALTINEST POLITICIAN

Winner: Boris Johnson

For outstanding lifetime achievement in:

  • Blaming someone else
  • Getting himself into trouble
  • Saying something outrageous
  • Attempting to explain it
  • Making everything considerably worse

The Salties Academy applauds. πŸ˜‚


πŸ† 5. SALTINEST TV PERSONALITY

Winner: Jeremy Clarkson

A man who has somehow turned cars, farming, restaurants and weather into opportunities for complaining.

Mr. Salty:
"A natural talent."


πŸ† 6. SALTINEST DRIVER OF THE YEAR

Winner: The person doing 47 km/h in a 60 zone while you're stuck behind them

No name required.

We've all met them.

We've all followed them.

We've all wondered whether they're actually looking for the brake pedal.

πŸš—πŸ§‚


πŸ† 7. SALTIE FOR BEST INTERNET WARRIOR

Winner: The Facebook Comment Section

Not one person.

All of them.

Someone posts:

“Lovely weather today.”

Three minutes later:

WAR.

πŸ† 8. SALTINEST CUSTOMER

Winner: The person who demands to speak to the manager

Special commendation for those who begin the conversation with:

“I'VE BEEN SHOPPING HERE FOR 25 YEARS!”

Even though nobody asked. πŸ˜‚


πŸ† 9. SALTINEST ANIMAL

Winner: The Goose

No contest.

Aggressive.

Unpredictable.

Territorial.

Completely unreasonable.

Basically a politician with wings.

πŸͺΏπŸ§‚


πŸ‘‘πŸ† 10. THE GOLDEN SALTY

WINNER: MR. SALTY

Because let's be honest...

Who else could possibly win?

After years of complaining about cars, drivers, politicians, technology, coffee shops, electric vehicles, ridiculous prices and people who don't indicate...

Mr. Salty finally receives the Golden Salt Shaker. πŸ§‚πŸ†

🎀 His acceptance speech:

“I'd like to thank nobody.”

“I'd also like to thank myself for being consistently annoyed throughout the year.”

“It's been a difficult journey, but frankly, there was plenty to complain about.”

“Thank you… and now get off my lawn.”

THE END.

Or, as Mr. Salty would say:

“That's enough celebrating. Someone's left the lights on.” πŸ˜‚πŸ§‚πŸΆ
