Acceber which I would insist on pronouncing Akbar and then I would have to marry someone named Jeff.

Much ~ma to you, Consuela.

And msbelle, I'm glad the interview went well but I'm sorry to hear about the pay.

As to the name game, board name I'd be Llerrub, which looks like the sound Smaug makes when he belches. Not attractive. But Haron sounds pretty good to me.

I know a Jeff! Cute, middle aged writing prof type, perfect for you.... Oh wait, lives in the wrong state.

I was just discussing how I would be open to a marriage solely for financial reasons, if anyone would benefit on taxes by being married and having a child.

They could pay me a monthly stipend and pocket the rest of the financial gain.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

My full name would be the completely unmanageable Enileuqcaj, and my nicks would be Zaj and ZJ, also bad.

Damn, msbelle, that is so much too bad, but I'm happy that at least you met with a group you like that likes you back, so at least there's that confirmation that such employers do exist, locally even, and that your current bosses are indeed made of ass.

I used to joke with a co-worker about fake having a baby so I could take the year mat leave.

I want to fake having a baby and being a Canadian.

Help, I need job application advice: I am doing the online application for that Archives job in London. I have to add each job as a separate entry. Most of my actual archival experience is from the mid to late 1990s when I worked a lot of short term contracts. Because that stuff is relevant to the job I am applying for, I want to include it. But not all the jobs I did back then were relevant. Should I just enter the relevant ones and not worry about the gaps?

Get a fake belly and start spelling things with random u's. It's a start.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

I'm not entirely sure why Bert and Ernie have a particular uncoupley chemistry, and despite planning on being unmated for the rest of my life, I don't see why friendship deserves equality. It's a different thing. Just...different. What would equality look like? What's the win in this scenario?

Yeah, I'm with ita on this. Of course, I've always seen Bert and Ernie as a couple, though Ernie's an emotionally abusive, passive-aggressive, horrible person, and I want to stage an intervention to save poor Bert, and I feel very strongly about this.

I'm... a little gunshy, frankly, about this sort of thing. Sorry, your friendship isn't being oppressed, so shove it.
