  4. HOW DARE YOU!
    (Not pick the Hong Kong protestors).
    What about the carbon footprint of the 4 magazines they may actually sell?!

    But hey, it’s a break from impeachment news and something something female directors something awards.

  7. Behold the science of “Climate change” … little Greta is the The Marie Curie of Climate science. A puppet, a prop, in the political science of climate change. Western culture is devolving.

  8. Everything is a stunt.

    I’m old enough to remember when Time’s Man of the Year actually meant something.

    Yeah, that makes me a geezer. Don’t get me started on Merriam-Webster’s word of the year “They” and get off my lawn.

      1. Not necessarily, I can be a complete ass hole when necessary. As far as wisdom coming with age I don’t think it is wisdom, our BS meter is just enhanced and the filters get dropped.

        1. In the late ’70’s to late ’80’s, I drove a cab in Calgary..between jobs and while attending SAIT.

          My BS meter underwent significant sharpening..and today at the tender age of 67, continues to refine itself on a near daily basis….plenty of utter BS to be found.

    3. DB, I remember, as a young boy in the 1950s and early 1960s, eagerly waiting for TIME magazine in the mail. I would read every word of it. Back then the Luce family ran it. And while at university as an undergrad, with easy access to archived magazine stacks, I would spend time reading the magazine from the 1940s, on WWII. Facinting reading, when, again, it was Luce run.

      Now? TIME is a superficial, left-wing joke.

      2. They’ve all gone that way..either disappearing (Look), or joining the Leftist brigades: McLeans, Nat Geo, Time and others…not worth a thing or spending hard earned coin upon…

    5. In 1968, the crew of Apollo 8 (Frank Borman, Jim Lovell, and Bill Anders) was collectively named as the Men of the Year. And why not? They were the first men to reach the moon, doing so without any hope of rescue if anything went wrong. They all served in the military and at least one (Borman) saw combat over Korea.

      The famous photo of the earthrise that was taken by Anders is often credited as inspiring the environmental movement.

      This year, it’s a teenaged twerp who’s risked nothing and accomplished even less. Simply by acting like a spoiled brat, she’s considered to be worthy of honour.

      Sheesh!

    1. methinks sanity needs protection from the likes of *her*
      otherwise, a variation on the protection racket.

  10. I am enjoying this.
    I am watching this for the long game.
    We are in a Grand Solar Minimum.
    It is going to get really REALLY cold over the next 35 years.
    This is going to blow all the doomer warming claims out of the water.
    Happy to give them as much rope as they want.
    Play along.
    It’s going to be fun.

    1. They’ll find a way to hide the decline … or explain it away. Perhaps they’ll find a magical toddler … a 3yo who makes scolding proclamations about her loaded diaper?

      1. That is why they are in a full court press to enact anti-AGW legislation and whatever you call UN rules RIGHT NOW. Some of them are actually enough of scientists to know that the Solar Minimum is coming, and it is going to get colder, and they want to get credit for that from whatever legislation they manage to push across. They will claim that, see, what we do CAN affect climate, and we ought to do more of it. That is why it is important not to let them do anything.

        1. Yeah … in the same way the FBI investigation of Trump restrained him from any FURTHER assistance from Russia. In other words … when the predicate is completely FALSE … all that follows afterward is FALSE.

        2. I think you have the formula they think they are following, but they missed it 10 years ago… The last two year’s winters have been bitterly cold in Saskatchewan Canada, but the fraudulent science will have everyone believe that the planet is warming and they can’t take credit for it cooling… Nobody with brains believe the sick buggers and USA MONEY has dried up…..No more stupid fear agendas…

          Enough already, let them make the case with all the freaks they can find…..

    2. They have to get smarter. I may be old but there are many like me who are more than capable of eliminating their carbon footprint.

    3. It is going to get colder and, because of the consequent reduced evaporation, MUCH DRIER.

      Less evaporation, less precipitation, massive crop failures, food and water wars.

      A regular laugh a minute.

    4. “This is going to blow all the doomer warning claims out of the water.”

      – Five’ll getcha ten it doesn’t shut ’em up…

  13. Hitler was named “Man of the Year” in 1938 by Time Magazine. They noted Hitler’s anti-capitalistic economic policies:

    “Most cruel joke of all, however, has been played by Hitler & Co. on those German capitalists and small businessmen who once backed National Socialism as a means of saving Germany’s bourgeois economic structure from radicalism. The Nazi credo that the individual belongs to the state also applies to business. Some businesses have been confiscated outright, on other what amounts to a capital tax has been levied. Profits have been strictly controlled. Some idea of the increasing Governmental control and interference in business could be deduced from the fact that 80% of all building and 50% of all industrial orders in Germany originated last year with the Government. Hard-pressed for food- stuffs as well as funds, the Nazi regime has taken over large estates and in many instances collectivized agriculture, a procedure fundamentally similar to Russian Communism.”

  14. from the link, Charles Lindbergh would NEVER had made that astonishing flight (he SKIMMED the S coast of Ireland via friggin dead reckoning, that’s how gaye Paris knew he was on his way) since the consumption of gasp !!!! carbum based fuel would keep him and ALL aircraft (except you know . . . . ) grounded if not even built.

    p.s. IDNF, it aint even gonna be water. it’s gonna be FROZEN all over the place.

  16. Very predictable, not at all surprised. There can’t be much going on in the world of any more importance than climate change, the bandwagon is overflowing with transfers from the turnip wagon.

  17. If TIME were still relevant, this might annoy me. Instead it’s just another pathetic leftist Dutch-ruddering…

  23. TIME: “Greta, Persona of the Year. ”
    Definition: A persona is a social role or a character played by an actor. The word is derived from Latin, where it originally referred to a theatrical mask.

    Benito Mussolini: “The Liberal State is a mask behind which there is no face; it is a scaffolding behind which there is no building”.

  26. Hitler 1938. Stalin 1939 and 1942. Ayatollah Khomeini 1979.

    If I were an ethical Greta I’d say ‘no thanks’ due to the questionable company.

    I mean for the love of all things Green, they choose Giuliani in Jan 2002…Gretal should run…or Tesla… away from this one screaming “How dare they!”.

  28. Well if that thing is in fact a “girl”, the award should be for ugliest “girl” of the year. Oh my, how far Swedish women have fallen from the days of Swedish Flygirls. Time magazine ranks right up there with, Tony Roma had ribs for dinner, type trivia

        1. Spy VS…..??

          …and hilarious comical jokes
          Best one (that I can recall), was the elevator thing:
          Door opens, buddy says “Going up”..?
          “Nope, we’re standing still, you must be going down”.

          Door opens up, buddy says “are you going down.?” “Nope we’re gonna fool everyone and go sideways..”

          I think I lost my voice at that – laughing so damned hard as an 11 yr old. Have always loved stupid slapstick like that… Twas a Great mag with tons of off the wall kinda stuff.

      3. Rob, I am a lifelong fan of Mad Magazine. The dead tree version is gone and they just announced there
        will be no more original content on their website. I was buying it off the rack in 1965 when I was 9. In
        about 1994, I bought the whole run from the premier issue to 1994 on CDROM. I grew up on the image
        of Alfred E Newman and at over 60 years of age, I still enjoy reading Mad from time to time.

        What me worry?

  29. Those who ascribe to rational thought , critical thinking and common sense have lost , there can be no doubt . Proof of that is demonstrated in the election of a complete idiot .

  30. Yea Rob83, I know, I’m 63, I read Mad, contrary to UNme, I’m not Turdoish, been in business a long time. Either picture, Kate’s or Time’s, that is a pathetic looking humanoid.

  31. I nearly blew coffee out of my nose when I heard the news this morning! The news-babe stated that Greta
    the Magic Retard edged out Nasty Pelosi and President Trump for the honor. Time Magazine wouldn’t even
    consider President Trump.

    1. I believe there is a 2019 stocking stuffer edition available, I saw one in Canadian Tire today..
      I, too, used to go down to the local 7-11 to look at (parents wouldn’t let me buy National Lampoon), Mad, Cracked, CarToons w (Trosley and Dean) magazines, when they were actually funny! Satire, it seems, is being phased out, due to too many hurt Feewings!

  34. Some would argue that “Greta The Magical Retard” is mean spirited and demeaning. And under certain circumstances, it would be. But this is why the name is appropriate:
    https://wattsupwiththat.com/2019/05/02/quote-of-the-week-greta-thunberg-claims-to-be-able-to-see-carbon-dioxide-in-the-air/

    In some ways, Greta is a borderline genius. Ans in some ways, she’s an emotionally retarded teenager. It may be inconsiderate/politically incorrect to call her a freak, but it’s not inaccurate. Greta’s own hard work has earned her the moniker of “Magical Retard”. If the cap fits, wear it.

  37. The funniest I’ve heard is a friend of mine in Quebec who calls her, ”La Petite Gratelle. ”

    Gratelle is a Quebec term used to describe ” mange,” a condition that causes animals to lose their hair because of parasites. It is also used to describe chicken pox, or any condition that leaves scabs.

    How befitting.
