Witness this woman's rollercoaster ride of emotions as she wins $11 on HQ Trivia
The fool who said it's not about winning, it's the taking part that counts was horribly, horribly mistaken.
It's aaaaall about winning. And, this woman who won at HQ trivia is proof that winning really is the most glorious feeling in the world. OK, so she did only win $11, but still. She won!
Avery Armour tweeted a video of friend Lauren May's reaction as she waited to find out if she'd answered a question correctly on HQ Trivia.
At first, May appears to be on the brink of tears.
"Did I not get it? What did he say?" she says.
But, then she discovers that she did, in fact, get it.

And, oh my gosh. May lets out the most ear-splitting screech. She jumps up and down like she's won the lottery.
Then she collapses to the ground, where she lies for some time. She's literally floored by her win.
ABBA was right, you know. The winner really does take it all.
