The Buzz Award - a post that took off this week

The week's question

In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Buzz Award

A bee beside a name means one thing: that member wrote something this week that the community took to. One bee is added for every ten recommendations on their most recommended post of the last seven days.

It is the one award here that moves in days rather than months. The Shrewdness medals, the Article-length Awards and the Harvest Awards all describe a year of writing. The Buzz describes a moment — it arrives quickly, and it fades just as quickly once the week rolls on. Nothing needs to be claimed and nothing needs to be kept.
