You don't get to be Person of the Year without being exploited by a few Paraguayan universities.

Every week we see countless comments that have nothing to do with anything. Our favorite this week came from Huh? in response to the Christmas Lights Video Game.

This cheeseburger rant sounds like something Mark Zuckerberg would say stumbling into a McDonald's drunk at 3 am. If he was British. And he rambled in real life the way he did in the movie.

But woah. Stop talking about the burgers, Mark. And stop changing our profile layouts!

Anyway, if you have any irrelevant comments, leave them below.

Hammy-B.

Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg has been named Person of the Year by TIME Magazine.

Since Zuckerberg basically owns 25% of the Internet, the Internet seems to have a lot of opinions about this choice.  Many people think it's a wishy-washy one at best.

But here's the thing…  Quick: Name TIME's 2009 Person of the Year.

Alright, to hell with quick.  Think as long as you want.  Ponder it for days.

My point: No one knows and no one cares and it's totally irrelevant who is named "Person of the Year" and it's been totally irrelevant dating back to when TIME sold us out and changed it from "Man of the Year" to "Person of the Year" in 1999.  (And yet ironically still hasn't given it to a woman since.)

You see, TIME used to have balls.  You know that Hitler was a MOTY.  Hell, Stalin was MOTY twice.  Now it's like, "The Social Network was my favorite movie.  Who was that about?"

If that's your logic, why not give Jesse Eisenberg POTY?  He's the one who brought Zuckerberg to the main-est of the mainstream by playing Zuckerberg in the Facebook movie.

And I say, why not indeed.  That's why my vote for POTY goes to Jesse Eisenberg.

And I don't even know who he is.  Adventureland?  Zombieland?  Has anyone even seen any of these movies??  Kids today and whatnot.

Facebook will try to tell you that if you don't like the new look of your Facebook profile page, it's because you are resistant to change.

But sometimes change is dumb.

Case in point, I knew all along automatically putting recently tagged photos at the very top of people's profiles was a recipe for disaster.  A friend could tag you in literally any photo they want and — POOF! — like magic it'll just pop up at the top of your profile.

As you can see above, it didn't take Redditor mrmojorisingi long to realize the repercussions of this change and immediately troll/hack the photostream on the top of one of his friend's profiles.

Wait…  This photo of my balls is finally done uploading to Facebook.  BRB.  Off to tag everyone I know in it…

In fairness, her reason is only slightly dumber than the real one.

If we're going to make an empty gesture by changing our profile pictures, we may as well stick with the unicorn petting a cat. That movement was going somewhere!

Facebook made some changes to profile pages and people are upset.

Zuckerberg and Co. claim the new look makes it "easier to tell your story and learn about your friends". But users are complaining that the upgraded format is "confusing", "stupid", and "messy". And, as many have learned, once you've made the change there's no going back.

Typical Facebook.

But I think the real news here is that Blaise is now on its way to becoming the most popular baby name of 2011.

Once again, Zuckerberg has screwed us all.

I've always found the "Independence Day" speech to be almost as inspiring as the triumphant speech at the end of "Team America". Almost.

He's about to turn 24, thinks about Tosh.0 on the toilet and loves them beans and cornbread!  Meet the 3 millionth person to "like" the Tosh.0 Facebook page? and possibly America's newest sweetheart, Nic Nuno!

After number 2 million slipped by usaccidentally, this time around we enlisted Ed Guntherfor a little number crunching help in advance.  Here was his prediction on when we'd reach #3,000,000:

Turns out even the mighty Ed Gunther can't predict human behavior down to the second, but he was close.  We crossed 3 mil just after 11am on the morning of November 11th.

And that's how we ended up with the 3 million man himself, Nic Nuno!  Here's what Nic had to say about receiving this honor…

MP: Nic Nuno! Congratulations on being the 3 millionth person to Like the Tosh.0 Facebook page! You realize your first name is missing a "K," right?

NN:Holy shit balls! It's taken 24 years for someone to tell me this.

MP: Tell us a little about yourself.

NN:My name as you know is Nic without a "k." I'm just your average dude, nothing special. In my free time I enjoy sewing, playing Candyland, reading Dr. Seuss books and curling up on the couch in my leopard-print Snuggie watching Married With Childrenre-runs. Haha! Just kidding…

Read the rest of my interview with Nic after the jump… more...

Featuring some of the latest Twitter and Facebook comments about Tosh.0.

What an interesting comparison, Chelsea. And did you know that only 1 million people like food? Tosh.0 is three times as popular as sustenance. That's something we're very proud of.

It's our office goal to become more popular than reading. Reading currently has 8 million likes! Eww. What is wrong with all those people?

Go on now. Like Tosh.0 on Facebook so we can finally show literature who's boss!

TMZ reports that the Palin daughters jumped to action to defend their mom's new show Sarah Palin's Alaska after reading some harsh criticism

…posted on Facebook

…by some dude they used to go to school with

…named "Tre."

Bristol, I know you're not the sharpest knife in the Palin drawer.  You've proved that.  Repeatedly.  And you're terribly uncharismatic.  And are riding your mom's popularity on Dancing with the Stars just like in real life.  Wait, I've gone off course…

The point: Bristol, you might not be bright, but you're an adult, and a mom, and a national spokeswoman for teen abstinence (despite having been a teen mother), and now — because of Dancing with the Stars — a national celebrity.

I hate to break it to you, honey, but at some point, you're going to have to let comments made by "Tre" …on Facebook… go.

God forbid she ever discovers what people are saying about her on EVERY OTHER SITE ON THE INTERNET.  She'd have to block out hours each day just to leave response comments!

But not to be outdone by her sister, this was Willow's take on the matter…

Yikes.  That won't look good on a resume.

Apparently, in Sarah Palin's Alaska taking time to properly raise your 16-year-old daughter is optional if you have a self-aggrandizing television show deal.

This can only end well for America.
