And it was this thread that reminded NOT to post "skooch VP, I want some, too."

Sorry. I really just couldn't help it. You are welcome to share my popcorn!

Are you one of those people who assume that academics do not work for a living? Because we do. Why do you feel that you have to emphasize that you work for a living?

Don't comment on the HOF.

Don't think you're above it, you're afraid.

Don't get confused, that's leap post happening.

Just cause people are making popcorn doesn't mean you are entertaining.

I'm glad you have a good job and all, but size does matter.

Stop trying so hard.

No, I will not. I am feeling evil and so I would much prefer that you posty, posty. I will even throw popcorn kernels in your mouth while you type away.

Also, as I said over there, I haven't really got any hands to spare, what with the self-massage and all. :)

Your Ph.D advisor made your life a living hell.  Your post-doc was a miserable experience.  You really hate your current tt-track position.  So now you're on the job market again. If you do get another offer, why do I have the feeling that you're not going to be happy there either?

Why don't you use both staples and paper clips? You may double your chances of getting an interview.
