I appreciate this. But that isnโ€™t why I spend 20 hours a week arguing with people on the internet and banning trolls. I do that because itโ€™s satisfying to chase and destroy the zombies, and to do it alongside people I trust.

Oh my fricking god

I think about the clichรฉ โ€œYou couldnโ€™t pay me to do that.โ€ For 20 or so hours a week, the line feels apt. You couldnโ€™t pay me to mod reddit.com.

Actually teared up laughing, this is so great
