When Time Magazine announced their "Person of The Year" this past week, no one was too surprised that "you" or rather "we," the bloggers/content sharers, were named the recipient of the prestigious honor. Given the overwhelming success of user-generated content on sites like YouTube and their liquid worth, I get it. Still it felt like a let down. After all, last year's award went to Bill & Melinda Gates and Bono. Couldn't they have sought another good samaritan or better yet, some awful tryant, like Kim Jong II? Did we have to get all hokey?
My ambivalent attitude explains why I can appreciate The Jewish Advocate's Maidel and her response to this year's award.
Disclaimer: Try and block out the "like"(s). They seem to be a feminine default for irony in blogs these days. No one sent me the memo yet.
Yeah! I’m, like, so excited. Aren’t you? Thanks to TIME Magazine’s cop-out, I’m its person of the year. When I got the phone call, I was like, “Huh? I’m the mover and shaker that did a little something, something to change the world?” And they were like, “yeah. You surfed the Web so you changed the dynamic of the way people think about the world.” I was, like, wow that’s so super amazing. But then they told me that I share the honor with six billion other humans on this planet. And then I was like, “This is such a bummer.”
