"Thank you for using the word 'snacker' - at my old job that's what we called ourselves when we fell into the corn-syrup hole - or snack-well? We also refer to afternoon munchy time as 'snack o'clock.' Other terms include 'eat like a fat whore' or 'hot snackin' fattie' - these terms are used in jest/endearment/sympathy and at ourselves so it isn't as insulting as it looks in text."

"For a lot of people that is how they get information on depression which hopefully encourages them to seek treatment or help. Same with online research which I think is also crucial so people don't think they're the only ones dealing with depression."

andymatic on Dear Sean Hannity, Michael Savage, Rush Limbaugh, et al.: Either Obama is perpetrating a massive, intricate, step-by-step conspiracy to turn this country into a socialist nation, or he is massively incompetent. You can't have both. - http://www.reddit.com/r...

"Tangina Barrons's (the littler person psychic) monologue in Poltergeist. [http://www.youtube.com/watch... - it lays out the house rules for the movie and goes from a message of hope to fear to vengeance. The zoom and close up to her face and then 'Now let's go get your daughter.' is all like AW SHIT, IT IS ON. 'There is no death. It is only a transition to a different sphere of consciousness. Carol Anne is not like those she's with. She's a living presence in their spiritual, earth-bound plane. They're attracted to the one thing about her that's different from themselves. Her life-force - it is very strong. It gives off its own illumination. It is a light that implies life and memory of love and home and earthly pleasures, something they desperately desire but can't have anymore. Right now, she's the closest thing to that, and that is a terrible distraction from the real light that has finally come for them. Do you understand me?..."

andymatic on Dear admin. Let's be frank and honest about it. Reddit is not healthy. No other top internet site runs as slowly, or is down as often. It's becoming a daily joke. Why don't we have a proper discussion about what needs to be done? - http://www.reddit.com/r...
"Do you have your ad products/placements mapped to affinity groups that advertisers want to target? If your'e able to prove demographics/age/etc that might make it more attractive? (Wasn't sure if Conde Nast sells across the entire CN network and you guys have to shoehorn yourself into that) Does the adult content put off advertisers? If you're able to filter/suppress placements on those sub-reddits is that helpful? (You may do this already) I think success stories would be a huge thing to feature. Old media people think in PDFs. Are there particular verticals you're going after? For political sub-reddits you could divide along party lines so campaign managers can reach self-selected liberal/conservative audiences (BlogAds does this)."
