This unbridled display of ethnic pride is brought to you unintentionally by Esquire, the magazine that recently compiled a list of the 75 people that will be most responsible for shaping and defining the times we live in. Esquire says, "the result is a determined, defiant, earnest, brilliant, philanthropic, space-going, smoking-hot group." We couldn't help but notice that the result is also, well, Jewish. Not to toot our own horns, but...toot toot.

I don't mean to nitpick, but you seem to have forgotten Andy Samberg in your list of the most influential Jews of the 21st Century. He made a movie called Hot Rod where he plays a stuntman who's not very good!
