Butterface.

Today is the day that they crown the new Princess Kay of the Milky Way. The Midwest Dairy Association's website states that the crowned princess acts as a "goodwill ambassador for the dairy industry and the state's dairy farmers," which means they don't have to do anything at all, and in exchange for this burden they get to have their face carved out of butter and displayed at the Minnesota State Fair.

Unfortunately, I'm am not in the running to be crowned Princess Kay. Their website clearly states that in order to be considered for the position, one must be:

1. Female (Sexist!)
2. A graduating senior in high school when crowned (Ageist!)
3. Not yet 24 years old (Odd, especially considering requirement #2)
4. Not yet married (Creepy, especially considering requirement #2)
5. Committed to dairy promotion (I ain't discreet about my love for cheese, so I guess 1 out of 5 ain't bad)

What all this means, of course, is that there is little hope I will ever get to have my face carved in butter and displayed at the state fair. But that won't stop me from dreaming. Or photoshopping.

Stay strong, people. Someday we will live in a world where planetdan - or anyone else with a dream and a milk moustache - can be butter princess. Mark my words.
Change is coming.
