Should I apply for *this* particular job? And how to follow up on job enquiry emails?

Post 216721 by glache deleted for the following reason: You've sort of predisposed people to really really dislike this question. Can you maybe pick one question and do a rewrite and email us via the contact form and we can fix? Otherwise this is sort of a mess and not a cool use of AskMe. -- jessamyn

Life is short, people.

Post 216648 by Diablevert deleted for the following reason: Without some more concrete problem-to-be-solved here this feels like it's a bit into "beef about things you don't like or think other folks shouldn't like" chatfilter complete with I'll Go First. -- cortex

Why was he rude to me

Post 216224 by nassep deleted for the following reason: Hey, sorry, but you're correct that we can't read minds, and this just doesn't look like something we can answer. We can't divine someone's feelings from a tiny snippet of conversation that annoyed you. (Also, please try to be more careful with the construction of your posts; errors don't help efforts to try to make sense of the problem.) -- taz

How do I prepare for a child sexual abuse investigation as the children's caretaker?

Post 216222 by hic sunt dracones deleted for the following reason: This sounds like a very difficult situation that you don't want to make worse by posting information that might be used against you. Please contact us ASAP if you would like to edit this to be less specific. -- taz

Picture this... a rustic hunting lodge, my latest kill roasting on the fire, my little wife massaging my feet...

Post 215720 by chocolatemilkshakes deleted for the following reason: I feel like this is just "tell me a bunch of male stereotypes" and it's unclear why you can't find this on your own without MetaFilter's assistance and equally unclear what problem you are trying to solve. Sorry,maybe try again next week with something clearer? -- jessamyn

Startup Weekend questions

Post 215326 by zeek321 deleted for the following reason: I'm not sure what is going on here but AskMe is not for getting people to MeMail you privately. Feel free to re-ask this later in a different way but not like this. -- jessamyn

How do i best do a background check on a suspicious person?

Post 215040 by hitchcockblonde deleted for the following reason: This seems much more like a complaint about a company/person and less like a problem to be solved. If you want tips on how to find background info on someone that doesn't involve Google, you can try another question asking that. -- taz

50% homosexuality isn't a strong correlation?

Post 214996 by Peregrin5 deleted for the following reason: This is a dicey question which has a lot of different things going on. You linked to a really problematic article about gay people and mental illness and then want someone to explain a completely other issue to you. Please consider making this a much shorter more succinct question without all the baggage. Thank you. Use the contact form if you have questions. -- jessamyn

Helpless Doorknob Scans needed

Post 214984 by moonroof deleted for the following reason: This is really not something that is okay to use AskMe for. Help finding the scans okay. "Please send me the scans" not okay. Drop us a note via the contact form if you'd like us to edit this. -- jessamyn

Longterm relationship, facebook acknowledgements and relationship with parents

Post 214408 by WhatrightdoIhave2happiness deleted for the following reason: Sorry, but the hypothetical nature of the problem here when neither of the two people central to the question is actually involved in the conversation makes it impossible for us to do anything but guess, and that effectively makes this chatfilter. If your friend has questions, maybe get her an account so she can post them here, and we can try to help. -- taz
