The Nobel Peace Prize is one of the six Nobel prizes that awarded each year in the name of Alfred Nobel, the inventor of dynamite. Looks like was kind of upset that he had invented something that killed so many people, so he made up this prize to compensate for it. It is awarded each year to someone who has made great efforts for human rights and done so peacefully. Winners have included Martin Luther King Jr., Mother Teresa, (That one just may have been a mistake) Theodore Roosevelt, Desmond Tutu, Jimmy Carter, Al Gore and Barack Obama.

- The Nobel Peace Prize is a Nobel Prize. Krusty was told he was going to win it in a ruse to get him to go to Europe. Muhammad Yunushas won the prize too.
- The Nobel Peace Prize is a piece of gold-plated tin that a bunch of Norwegian hippies give to the given year's biggest pussies. In the most blatant example of politically correct White Man's Guilt, Alfred Nobel insisted that the cash he made with his invention, dynamite, be used to award the person who is the biggest pain in the ass to the leader of his own government. To his credit, however, he said it in pure Gerald Ford-style: in his will, which was only revealed after he was dead and buried.
- The recipient is selected by a 5-member committee appointed by the Parliament of Norway, as though it knew anything apart from snow and benefits payments. Since 1990, the prize is awarded on 10 December in Oslo City Hall each year. The recipient, referred to as the Laurantuno, is notified by telephone and scrambles to find convenient flights to Norway and, in some cases, nervously tries to find it on a map. The Nobel Peace Prize illustrates the high degree to which commemorating individual activists and groups has turned the human race away from the pursuit of war.

- The recipient is selected by a 5-member committee appointed by the Parliament of Norway, as though it knew anything apart from snow and benefits payments. Since 1990, the prize is awarded on 10 December in Oslo City Hall each year. The recipient, referred to as the Laurantuno, is notified by telephone and scrambles to find convenient flights to Norway and, in some cases, nervously tries to find it on a map. The Laurantuno gets a garish medal but usually never wears it anywhere. He also gets a diploma, just in case he doesn't already have one, and a cash prize. Due to its political nature, the Prize is highly controversial, and each Laurantuno, after learning who some of the others were, rushes to try to complete some other achievement he can be known for instead. Usually, suicide fills the bill. The Nobel Peace Prize illustrates the high degree to which commemorating individual activists and groups has turned the human race away from the pursuit of war.

The Nobel committee proved their complete obsolescence on October 10, 2009, when they awarded Barack Hussein Obama without giving Stephen Colbert so much as a nod. So what! They're stupid, and Stephen doesn't need them, anyway!
