The Most Remarkable People of our Time

I'm sure they will solve the hunger problem, gun violence, global warming, government corruption, and find the cure for cancer, in their spare time.

referring to a group of guests, including his (Kanye West) new in-laws, as "the most remarkable people of our time," whose combination of powers "can make the world a better place."

I consider that insulting that k west and kk are in the same discussion about The Most Remarkable People of our Time. unless they are used to show weirdness of our time, pic just adds to it.

West referred to himself, Kim , and all the guests at the wedding as "The most remarkable people of our time." I posted it to display the arrogance, hubris, and conceit of the guy in the most over-the-top statement he made. In no way was I opening a discussion for the most remarkable people and, if I did, it certainly wouldn't be these two .
