Congratulations!

This is a special weekend bulletin.

Congratulations, Internet user! Time Magazine has finally recognized you for your role in society.

Unfortunately, Time dropped the ball in some regards.

Instead of featuring your picture, they slapped a mirror on the cover, so don't bother showing your friends. It'll just fuel their egos when you're the important one right now.

The other problem is that there will be no cash, check or medal awarded to you. Since Time awarded this to you and seveal million of your closest friends, they couldn't afford anything more. Did they mention the cover is a mirror?

However, there is some solace in this.

First of all, not everyone won: just anyone "who create and use content on the Internet." This leaves out anyone not cool enough to own a computer.

Secondly, Time has placed you in very esteemed company as "Person of the Year." Charles Lindbergh (1927), Adolf Hitler (1938), Joseph Stalin (1939), FDR twice (1932 and 1941), Nikita Krushchev and his shoe (1957), Twenty-Five and Under (1966), Middle Americans (1969), Richard Milhous Nixon (1971), Ayatullah Khomeini (1979) and Newt Gingrich (1995) are all past recepients. And now you're one of them. Congratulations.

Finally, Time has done our job for us. The Guys couldn't figure out what to do for you, our readers. More importantly, we couldn't find a way to thank ourselves for what we do here everyday. We can all post our issues of Time on the wall, and add "www.seriouslyguys.com" on it with a magic marker.

See you all tomorrow, big winners.
