I think I'll keep one on hand at all times to whip out arbitrarily in arguments. "You think Caesar invented the thumbs down? WELL MY MEDAL OF BRILLIANCE DISAGREES YEAHWHATTHATSWHATITHOUGHT".

Gold stars, grades, marks out of 10, awards and medals, that's the stuff they use throughout our life to keep us stupid. If the medals came to you doing the things you wanna do and heading where you wanna go, that's wonderful by itself but, seriously, medals are nowt but an arbitary and meaningless confirmation of 'merit'.
