Teens Really Not Feeling Kim Kardashian's Twits

The fine art of Tweeting finally gets recognition

According to teenagers—or the roomful of 43-year-old executive producers who run the Teen Choice Awards—posting vague, random sentences on Twitter (they used to be called thoughts, back when they were kept inside your head) is now worthy of an award.

And with serious Tweeting wags like Shaquille O'Neal, MC Hammer and Ashton Kutcher ("Ashton does it!") thumbing in, competition was fierce.

Surprisingly, Kim Kardashian's evocative "I am so sunburned!" was beaten by Ellen DeGeneres' provocative, "This is what happens when you tweet about Garbanzo beans."

Which is you win a surfboard, apparently.
