When historians write the book on the events of this past week, what will they deem most important? Will it be Poster Boy’s vandalism of a few MoMA subway ads? Or how we finally, maybe, almost learned who the Hipster Runoff guy is? Or perhaps the time Kanye West told everybody that Thom Yorke was basically worse than O.J. Simpson? We doubt it! Clearly this week belonged only to Hugh Jackman and his world-changing opening number at last Sunday’s Oscars. For posterity, though, after the jump Vulture looks back on all the other boring crap that happened.
