Plans for 2024!!

Hey y'all, it's your favorite wboty mods and we're just gonna briefly talk about what wboty is going to do until December (when wboty 2024 will take place)

First and foremost, we thank ALL OF YOU for your voting and participation in this, it truly means the world to us.

What we will likely do is a weekly post acknowledging a white boy in the universe or beyond. Maybe it's a magazine shoot, a pap walk, a press conference, whatever! Just a post to keep up with the white boys of the world.

Additionally, at the end of each month, we will have a day long poll to vote on the white boy of the month. There will be two candidates, and the mods will pick them, but we will gladly take suggestions. As mentioned before, we choose candidates based on prevalence.

Lastly, and this may or may not occur, but we would love to have "White Boy of the Year: Tumblr Classics Edition" where we pit the most famous white boys of tumblr against each other.

Regardless of where 2024 leads us, thank you for making our end of 2023 spectacular, and we can't wait to see what's in store for us in the future.

Sincerely, Mods 🐛 and 🌵

WBOTY 2023 Wrapped

If anyone's interested, here are some fun statistics about this year's competition!!

Over the course of 31 days, we received 23,704 total votes across 15 polls!

If you take a look at the number of votes for each poll across different rounds, you can see that the number of votes grew exponentially as we got closer to and reached finals, which is pretty cool!

If you take a closer look at the data for round 1's polls, you'll notice that one point is much higher than the others. Care to guess which poll that might've been? That's right, David Tennant and Hozier fans were so passionate about supporting their faves that that poll was a statistical outlier regarding the number of votes it received!! Clap yourselves on the back, depressed queers!!

A lot of these polls were close calls, but exactly how close were they? As it turns out, six polls were decided by less than 100 votes! Most notably, Matthew Lillard beat Josh Hutcherson in semifinals by only 25 votes!!!

You might be thinking, "okay, but who got the most propaganda?" Well, luckily for you, here's a pie chart showing the distribution of propaganda asks we received in our inbox! Congratulations Cillian Murphy fans for really showing up! Your love for your favorite white boy was extremely impressive. It's no wonder you guys won Best Propaganda!

Finally, as a testament to this website's obsession with David Tennant, out of the 23,704 total votes we received, 8,758 were for David in one poll or another! That means about 37% of all votes in this entire competition were votes for David! Wow!!

If anyone else is a statistics nerd, here's a spreadsheet of all the data for your viewing pleasure!

Thank you again to everyone who voted for providing me with data for this very silly analysis. :))

WBOTY's Chaotic Grammy's Recap

This is where I'll just compile all my thoughts :DDD. Feel free to rb with yours and what not but I love to hear them!!

Miley's "Flowers" performance was EVERYTHING. I was never a huge fan of the song but DAMN she really told the crowd to go fuck themselves, she knew she was there for a reason.

Ahem, NEW TAYLOR ALBUM????? WE LOVE TO SEE IT

TAYLOR/OLIVIA BEEF RUMORS SQUASHED, I USED TO PRAY FOR TIMES LIKE THESE :DDDDD

SZA's Kill Bill performance. That's it.

Trevor Noah was ACTUALLY FUNNY???? Like yes I knew he was a comedian but hosting gigs always seem to fall flat, but he did his homework and made humor out of respect for the artists, and I like that.

Fuck the Grammy's CEO. No elaboration.

Billie getting song of the year, ugh loved it. Genuinely thought she was getting record of the year but a win is a win. Loved seeing Finneas for classic white boy content /hj

I was hoping Olivia would win an award. Kinda sad that she didn't, GUTS really was that bitch and deserves its praise.

Ok maybe a hot take but I don't think boygenius deserved the best rock song award. Not because the song sucked. It was great in fact. It's just not... rock? It's alt, and it should've been nominated as such.

Literally why was Lizzo at the Grammy's, I thought we left her in 2023...

N e ways that's all I've got, lemme know what y'all thought! I was really rooting for SOS to win AOTY but I can't lie, one of my favorite things is to see petty dudebros and chronically online music theorists cry over Midnights even existing so... can't say I'm mad! Congrats to everyone! Except for that Grammy's CEO fuck him again 🍅🍅🍅🍅

WBOTY AMA: if you had to replace one of our semifinalists with a fictional character (within the set of [white boy 2023]), who would be replaced, and who would be the replacement?

like a fictional, caucasian, male character that existed within 2023? I mean, I'd have to go with ken, right? He's kind of the og white boy - 🌵

EDIT: WAIT it said replacement, I mean, I guess ryan gosling with ken then. If I'm being fully transparent, I like our top four, but if it were fictional characters I would just replace actor with character. Not david though, because he seemingly only plays genderfluid losers.

Simple. I would replace David Tennant with his evil twin, Goliath Lanndlord. - 🐛

[geeky-politics-46]

Both worthy choices, but I have to vote for David. He's had my love longer.

Congrats, Mr. Tennant. I thoroughly enjoyed Good Omens again this year, and it was great to see him in Doctor Who again.
