I ordered luscious new gemstones from India and made new earrings for my SA mart thread

Remember my earrings and art are much better than my posting

New stuff starts towards end of page 3 of the thread
I would never in a million billion years. I thank Christ I said no and if I hadn't (I would have been poo poo canned long ago) but say I hadn't been? --- I could have made the same mistakes everyone is burning Burt at the stake for. I certainly didn't pay any attention

Mods are the people who want everyone to say "thank you for your service" and always steal valor but were just accountants in the Armed forces

...of the internet world.

you just don't have the mod gene. i don't either. somehow I became mod of /r/rock on reddit. I don't think I even have a good grasp of what even constitutes rock from other sorts of loud guitars music. occasionally somebody will message me asking to be a mod because they could really "do something" about the place and i mod them and they usually give up after a day too

People become a mod because they have secrets they need to let out but are too scared.

They have dark secrets that must be let out, so they put themselves in positions where this is then taken out of their own hands, such as being being a public figure, a mod.

It is similar to the relief a serial killer feels when they are finally caught.

I think being a mod should be like jury duty where everyone is forced to do it rather they want to or not, and nobody takes it seriously because they just don't give a gently caress and now theyre drunk because it's the first time they've had an excuse to get away from their lovely family that isn't their day job, wait what are we talking about I zoned out for a sec

Anyone who asks to be mod should never be a mod.

See this has been the sites philosophy since it's inception and it has only been met with varying degrees of failure. Just scandal after meltdown after other exciting situations.

So maybe as an experiment we should turn people who constantly ask to be made mods into mods and see if that works out make me a mod.
