Well, America, you've really screwed the pooch with the mid-term elections.

It is not possible to answer B without breaking forum rules.
A is simply: Every 2 years in America, there is an election where 2/3 of the Senate and all of the House are up for election. Half of the time, the President is also on the ballot; the other half, the President is not, given that it is a 4-year term in office. The ones where we do not elect a President are considered "mid-term" because they are in the middle of the President's 4-year term.
So I'm quitting my job. I don't like it and things have changed so it's not a good fit for me anymore. Also, there are a lot of clashing personalities that needlessly complicate things.
I gave 6 weeks notice hoping that would be enough to find something new and it looks like that might not be the case. One of the jobs that I thought was going to offer me a position went with someone else. It wasn't a job that I really wanted but still it would have been nice if they asked. It's like getting rejected by your safety school.
The other positions I applied to would be great but I think there will be more competition for them and I am less confident they will make offers. I live in DC and the more prestigious institutions generally have their pick of pretty much anyone. I mean I'm good but it is far from a sure thing.
I have about a week left at my current job and am starting to get nervous. I'm not going to starve or be out on the street but it's not awesome.
As an expat, it sure is fun watching the US vote trying to decide if they will put silverware on the right or left side of the plate, and getting really upset when the forks are put on the wrong side.
However, the purpose of this post is to complain that Defenses that don't go away every time I lose internet connection can't come soon enough!

Wait did American's turn out to vote?
Not the smart ones

It really depends on the nature of the post, I suspect. General political discussions (much like these) probably aren't disallowed, but starting a whole "Republicans rule, Democrats drool" tirade probably falls well outside the rules.
I say we should just create the United Federation of Planet(s) already and be done with it.
The UN changed it's name once before, no reason it can't change it's name again.

Yeah, but in that history, the UN becomes defunct, and there's a bloody WWIII we have to go through first .
Everiine is a man, and is very manly. This MAN before you is so manly you might as well just gender bend right now, cause he's the manliest man that you ever did see. His manly shape has spurned many women and girlyer men to boughs of fainting. He stands before you in a manly manerific typical man-like outfit which is covered in his manly motto: "I am a man!"

Pony power all the way, yo. The more Brontaurs the better.

It's true, I really am you.
If you've got shoddy net, I'd suggest using the server-side sipper in combination with a short timeout.
A) What are midterm elections?
