Ugh!
I'm barely keeping it together as it is between holding down a 40+ hour job, trying to find another, having a "permanent engagement" with a woman the next metropolis over, trying to keep my crappy apartment clean, and trying to learn the Java programming language.
While flattering, the nomination is a sign I'm spending way too much time on here. In fact, I'm considering bailing because of the script errors causing serious performance issues on my computer. I need to either manually configure my firewall to deny anything in or out from adnxs, or maybe even buy ad blocker. I understand Yuku is advertiser supported, but this is ridiculous.
While I'm glad everyone knows me as me, I am trying to find another job, so stop outing me! Every time I do a search for Prince Philip and Kava, it points to this board. I don't want to have the stigma of a drug addict stopping job offers, especially as the "Prince Philip" exaggerates his kava drinking for comedic effect. I'm glad that the topic did come up, because I feel inappropriate guilt/dread over the death of Jacintha Saldanha. For anyone unfamiliar with her story, she was a person very much like myself - an overworked and overtrusting individual who patched through a call from an Australian Wacky Morning DJ who pretended to be Kate Middleton's Grandmother-in-Law, Elizabeth II. Impersonating celebrities should be a fun thing. It shouldn't end in tragedy. "Prince Philip" gives me a chance to say ridiculous things and make outrageous claims.
Being a moderator sounds like work. If you want to give me elevated privileges, I'll delete the spammers, (unless we decide to make fun of them instead). I've yet to see a real honest-to-Frum fight on here. I generally only come on the boards when I've had a shell, and I don't actually have a working computer at my residence in Indiana, so I might not see everything in a timely manner.
I guess I'd be more afraid of a moderator who actually wanted the job.
