No, actually Saddam Hussein was TIME's person of the year. So that means that I'm TIME's person of the year! (jk/lol)

The selections grow more ridiculous each year. Being Time's Person of the Year is not necessarily complimentary. The criteria for selection says, "The person or thing that influenced the world for better or worse." There has been a great deal of "worse" over the years.

I now rescind my claim to be Time's Person of the Year.

It turns out, they gave the award to Japanese actress You.
