  • The Internet thinks Miley Cyrus should be TIME POY

    Civilization's Endgame.

    I know it's partially in fun, but why is she even on the list? Twerk-gate? Really?

    As if needed, even more proof that there are two Internets: The just plain "internet," a worldwide source of information and intelligence, and the "#[email protected]#[email protected]# internet," a worldwide source of sheer stupidity...

      I was leaning toward Playboy's POM. Photoshop is her friend.
      It's a Hoosier thing, you wouldn't understand...

        Cast your vote for the person you think most influenced the news this year for better or worse
        It was never meant to be an honor. For example, Hitler was TPOY....
        No weather forecasts are ever guaranteed, even if confidence level is high. Even a 99% probability will miss 1% of the time. That's the best anybody can do when predicting highly complex events.

          I don't know what I'm more surprised by:

          Miley Cyrus leading the Time Person of the Year poll, or

          Time Magazine still being around to give the award.

            Sort of like TV networks also.
            Have a very blessed day!

              Oh, I get that and agree w/ it. Look, I think Ed Snowden, not the most likable fellow, ought to be POY this yr. His actions have had an impact already on the liberty v. security debate.

              But that's my point. "Impact on the news." What impact has she made? Or is this just Boomers, on all sides, being obsessed w/ public displays of sexuality (on MTV, no less)?

                Yeah, I'm not agreeing or disagreeing, nor was my post directed at any specific person. I was just pointing out something that often gets misunderstood in discussions about TPOY.

                  I was reading something that made sense as to why she is acting like she has been of late. She wants to viritually murder the Hanna Montana tv show so that it will not live on.

                    I've always believed that the POY was not necessarily the best person but someone who became most notable or influential. I do remember after 9/11 they entertained the idea of Bin Laden because of how much he changed the world.

                      She's made quite an impact on popular culture. There have been countless references and viral videos about her recent doings.

                        I hear that Miley has really ticked off all the folks that know how twerking is suppose to be done... I imagine that her tongue thing only ticks off Kermit and Micheal Jordon.

                        "Ooh woo, I'm a Rebel just for kicks, now
                        I been feeling it since 1966, now..."

                          Are you sure they didn't mean POS?

                            The New Pope would probably be on the short list IMO.
                            Asked how he’d like to be remembered were he hit by a bus tomorrow, Tracy doesn’t hesitate: “I’m a race-car driver. At the last second, I’d swerve and avoid the bus.”
