What the fuck is J.K. "Bastarding" Rowling doing in that list???
fuck sake. I am becoming steadily more misanthropic with each new dawn, humanity has excelled itself if THAT deserves a prize.

Actually, J.K. Rowling has influenced people in a different way. May even have recharged literature for children. I stopped reading books for leisurely reading until "Harry Potter" came along when I was 12.
Not necessary great enough to be "Time's Person of the Year", but look at the other people in the same category. What does it mean to be their "Person of the Year" anyway?

JK Rowling *DID* fuck all, except for being hyped to buggery and back again. A mate knows the ghost writer. She was never penniless either.
Time magazine can fuck off with their scale of importance too, who do they think they are to tell ME who is important??
If they were French I'd get Dr. Idiot to tell them firmly:

unfortunately they are not French but the sentiment matches all the same.*pops another 3 grumpy pills.

I have to agree with Jaline on Rowling. Getting kids as interested in reading like she has done is a big accomplishment when so many are more into online gaming or just online in general.
I've said before, these days I still think that the only way to get kids interested in books is if you have a reality show where celebrities read the books aloud and we all call/text in to vote off who sucked the most.
