Kim Jong-un set to be TIME's most influential person of the year, thanks to everyone's favourite int - Polidicks

He already made an official photo: [IMG]http://niaje.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/JackieChan.jpg[/IMG] He dedicated the nominee to his father, Kim Jong-il, which was ill and his health gone downhill until he wrote his will. RIP in peace Eternal General Secretary of the Party: [IMG]http://niaje.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/JackieChan.jpg[/IMG]

It would actually be nice for him to win. /b/ could get its rocks off and TIME could write a nice expose on the horrible human rights violations in NK.

[QUOTE=Boba_Fett;38665485]To be honest, he is very influential. He pretty much has an entire country of people who would do whatever he asked them to do without so much of a second thought.[/QUOTE] it means little beyond nk's borders though. and so far he seems to simply be a continuation of kim jong-il

[QUOTE='[Seed Eater];38665712']Y'know, I just have to imagine though- what would the North Koreans think if the dyansty that's kept them enslaved for generations is held high on a pedestal in the West?[/QUOTE] Thanks to Best Korea's state news outlets, they already think that. When Kim Jong Il died, they reported that Americans were openly weeping in the streets.

yeah yeah snip whatever

[QUOTE=Soleeedus;38666271]i'd snip that if I were you, I got banned the last time I posted that in SH[/QUOTE] Wow your avatar is annoying.

Higgs Boson Particle needs to win.

Hah, I love how the mars rover is there

psy is cool i guess, but the only reason he is up there is because people are stupid and will worship anything that's the new "fad"

[QUOTE=Soleeedus;38666271]i'd snip that if I were you, I got banned the last time I posted that in SH[/QUOTE] Posting photos of Margaret Cho is bannable?

Why the fuck is Psy even on the list ?

[QUOTE=UberMunchkin;38665142]Psy has got more than Curiosity... As a space fanatic, I can honestly say that this has deeply saddened me [img]http://www.facepunch.com//fp/emoot/smith.gif[/img][/QUOTE] even psy has said he wonders how he got to the list and that he doesn't deserve it

I really hate 4chan...this shit is getting old

You guys act like Psy is the worst thing on there, yes the year in which there's a one hit wonder that person is influential. Three of the entries aren't even individual people.

[QUOTE=POLOPOZOZO;38667231]You guys act like Psy is the worst thing on there, yes the year in which there's a one hit wonder that person is influential. Three of the entries aren't even individual people.[/QUOTE] What has he influenced exactly?

[QUOTE=Noss;38667375]What has he influenced exactly?[/QUOTE] How has the Mars Rover been an influential person? At least Psy is a goddamn person.

[QUOTE=Kinversulath;38667484]How has the Mars Rover been an influential person? At least Psy is a goddamn person.[/QUOTE] I never said it was. Although its done a whole lot more for the world than Psy.

[QUOTE=smurfy;38665113]I hope Malala Yousafzai is on the cover[/QUOTE] What is so great about him, he is a politician in some country with 5mn population. Their country is going to fall on its face when they run out of oil to export. Kim Jong-Un, he is the sexiest man in the world and a dictator that punishes people with fucking mortar fire. One of the brilliant minds of 2012.

[QUOTE=Noss;38667525]I never said it was. Although its done a whole lot more for the world than Psy.[/QUOTE] Oh yeah? The Mars rover hasn't even found life on Mars yet. Psy IS life on Mars.

[QUOTE=mac338;38667576]Oh yeah? The Mars rover hasn't even found life on Mars yet. Psy IS life on Mars.[/QUOTE] Pfff, amateurs. Our great leader Kim Jong-un already colonized Mars, ate all the local wildlife and left it to those petty capitalist mechanized toys. He also left life traces (random unloyal military) to fool the Unorganized States. Is that possible? It's more than that, it's Kim Possible! [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/xNvhT.jpg[/IMG]

[QUOTE=Noss;38667375]What has he influenced exactly?[/QUOTE] Oh I don't know, all Pop culture eveywhere? Most viewed YT video, ever? Yeah he's more influential than illegal immigrants and that ai weiwei guy.

I remember when we had 50k votes on this and the Egyptian had like 130 The power of bored teens

[QUOTE=Zephyrs;38665327]I was hoping that the mars rover would be the one consensus latched onto. Send a reporter to mars for an interview.[/QUOTE] Sending a reporter to North Korea for an interview would probably just as difficult.

I could deal with Psy being on there if he wasn't ahead of people who actually did important things.
