...and you really don't want to, cause it's so lame, but the principal of your school wants you to.  What kind of hypothetical "applause" would you least prefer, from the audience (consisting of 100+ people)?

(Note: Sarcastic applause = people staring blankly at the ceiling, and slowly clapping as if they didn't give a damn)

silence, i would just hate the feeling :P

So what did u do to get this award?

(i do not believe that u just thought that up in ur mind without any backing... i believe either u or someone else must be in that position) Sarcastic applause = atleast they try to act like they care
Silence (stare blankly) = They obviously don't care
Silence with coughts = They don't care and try to show it's bullchocolate
Small whispers of double you tee eff = They are confused/think it's wrong.

Thus the bottom 2 reactions would be worse thatn the top 2, and the 3rd one being the worst, cause the 4th one could be unintentional (they are surpised?) and gives an impression of confusion, while the 3rd and is definately intentional, and they are trying to mock u.

Try to be funny. I've been in this position before, and I can tell you from experience that laughter goes a long way with people.

For instance, I had to give a sort of thank you speech each year at this dinner for a scholarship I was getting from the alumni association at my college. The last year the head of the computer science department was there. I started off in the computer dept., and while I was talking about the various majors that I had switched to and from I make a joke about how I didn't care for the administration of the computer dept. I did it in a tasteful way, of course, and everyone laughed, including Dr. Star (the head of the comp. dept.).

Afterwards, I had a lot of people come up to me to talk, simply because I set myself apart in their minds because I made them laugh.

that's the best way to insult people

i think silence because in life theres nothing worse then to not be acknowledged in any way shape or form

Actually I would least prefer all of them except for Sarcastic Applause...
Now I must get a lame award for letting necrobot awaken...
