I raise this matter of good or bad, because the world in general seems to enjoy classifying things as being either one or the other.

The Ig Nobel Prizes aside, most prizes, in most places, are clearly meant to honor the goodness or badness of the receivers.
除了搞笑诺贝尔奖，在大多数地方，很多奖项都是为了纪念获奖者做的好事和坏事。
Olympic medals go to very good athletes. Worst-dressed prizes go to badly dressed celebrities2. Nobel Prizes go to scientists, writers, and others who excel.
奥运奖牌颁发给优秀的运动员。最差穿着奖颁发给穿着最难看的名人。
These prizes, and most others, are meant to honor the extremes of humanity—those whose achievements should be seen as very good or very bad.
诺贝尔奖颁发给科学家，作家和其他领域杰出人物。这些奖项，还有很多其他的奖，都是为了纪念人类的极端——这些成就可以看成非常好或者很不好。
The Ig Nobel Prize isn't like that. The Ig honors the great confusion in which most of us exist much of the time. Life is confusing. Good and bad get all mixed up. Yin can be hard to distinguish from yang.
搞笑诺贝尔奖和上述的不太相同，它是为了纪念那些生活中让人感到困惑的事情。生活是令人困惑的，好坏参差，阴阳难辨。
