maqroll Posted December 27, 2012 Share Posted December 27, 2012 Obama winning Time magazine person of the year for the second time for doing f@@k all again other than being American I mean I can accept its an Ameeican publication and that they don't know about the rest of the world but come on you must have been able to find someone worthy of giving it to !! I'm not sure anyone actually reads Time magazine anymore. Newsweek just rolled out it's last print copy this month...Anyway, their "honor" is about as useless as a Nobel Peace Prize Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chindie Posted December 27, 2012 VT Supporter Share Posted December 27, 2012 The Time Person/Thing of the Year is decided on whoever/whatever was most newsworthy, isn't it? (Hence Hitler having won it way back when) I can't think of anything that outdoes Obama for this 12 months, really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maqroll Posted December 27, 2012 Share Posted December 27, 2012 I think it's morphed into more of an "award" type thing over the years. Either way, it's a joke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In terms of being newsworthy then surely Kim Jong Un has been in the news more than anyone in the past 12 months ? If its a what have you done lately award thenAung San Suu Kyi would have been a better shout Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrentVilla Posted December 27, 2012 Moderator Share Posted December 27, 2012 Football. I mean I should love it, I've loved it for many years it was in my blood and consuming much of my waking hours. However these days, generally speaking football just pisses me off more and more by the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrackpotForeigner Posted December 27, 2012 Share Posted December 27, 2012 Musos. They almost never listen to anyone else's music, and when, on the basis of them being cool and likeable, you ask them to recommend stuff that they DO listen to, it's usually rubbish.

It used to be and then they tried to give it to Bin Laden on that basis about, oh, 11 years ago and all hell broke loose cuz people couldn't 'get' the reasoning. So now they just give it to whoever would generate the least reaction - or rather has done the least while in a position of influence. Ta-da ! O'Bama gets it.

CarewsEyebrowDesigner Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 I get out of the shower and look in the underwear drawer - no underwear. So I look around the house in the buff looking for some suitable pants but they've evidently packed their shit and left the country or vanished in the washing machine that part times as a portal to another dimension. I'm now 'going commando', which is fine in certain types of clothes and in certain conditions, but not in the middle of winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm now 'going commando', which is fine in certain types of clothes and in certain conditions, but not in the middle of winter. The portal to another dimension thing seems to also affect socks. The other day I decided to take all of my loose socks out of my drawer and make pairs from them. From 31 (!) socks I managed to make four matching pairs! The other twenty three socks were completely odd!! How the f*ck does that happen!?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always buy black or navy and you'll have a much easier time making pairs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GarethRDR Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 And never buy black socks from a normal shop. They shaft you every time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
