Kim Young'un Time readers person of the year



They'll be dancing in the streets of Pyongyang today following the news that Time readers have voted Lil Kim as their person o the year. While it does not mean that Time will crown him with that honour but it's been quie a year for the little shitstain

Not long ago he was Sexiest Man Alive. albeit by The Onion but an award is an award!

Kim ranked first in TIME’s completely unscientific Person of the Year reader poll, with 5.6 million votes. The poll allows readers to weigh in on the people — and things (hello, Curiosity rover!) — who they think influenced the news, for better or worse, in 2012. 

He beat the runner upthe woefully unfunny Jon Stewart not by a country mile but by a couple of continents

“While we don’t make our selection based on the poll results,” says TIME executive editor Radhika Jones, “it’s always interesting to see where some of our preferred candidates end up.”  My ownpersona choce for the ccolade. Malala Yousafzai, who was shot in the head by a Taliban gunman for her outspoken activism, placed 15th in the poll.At least she beat that atrocious mock horse  riding bollocks from Psy

Looking further it seems that a site I've never visited called 4Chan played a hand in distorting the reader poll. Ah well perhps the spotty teens on 4Chan identified with Kim's appearance.
