What a fun day we have been having! But not as fun as the good people who work for Cards Against Humanity, the sort of ur-Wonkette card game (even though there are still other card games you could ALSO buy, just saying, whatever) that is SO rude and SO gross and SO fun and SO fun to play! They are looking for a new CEO, and here is their job listing, which we are copy-and-pasting all of, it's not like Craigslist needs the traffic:
Cards Against Humanity is hiring a CEO! (Chicago)
compensation: We will award you 51% of our company and you can set your own salary.
employment type: full-time
Cards Against Humanity, the #1 best-selling party game, is hiring a new CEO!
Let's face it: we have no idea what we're doing. This year, we wasted an enormous amount of time and energy trying to get Hillary Clinton elected President, and on Black Friday we dug a huge hole in the ground because we wanted to find out if it would be funny. It's been a great run, but now it's time for real adult leadership.

We are seeking a highly qualified executive to run our company who meets the following requirements:
- Strong public speaking skills
- Steady disposition, remains cool under pressure
- Willing to inherit the consequences of eight years of irresponsible spending
- Excellent negotiator able to deal with stubborn opposition
- Experience hunting terrorist masterminds
- Minimum eight years experience President of the United States of America or equivalent nation
- Strongly prefer the first black editor of Harvard Law Review
- Must currently hold a national approval rating of 57.2% or higher
- Passed comprehensive healthcare reform
- Natural born citizen of the United States
- Proficient in Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint
The ideal candidate will be excited to travel for work and be a recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize.
Women and minorities are strongly encouraged to apply.
What's In It for You?
If you are the right candidate, we will award you 51% of our company and you can set your own salary.
Benefits include:
- Health/dental/vision insurance (while available)

About the Company

WASN'T THAT FUN? DIDN'T IT MAKE YOU HAPPY? YESWE CANIT DID!
Now it's your turn! Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to help Your Wonkette make its own Cards Against Humanity expansion pack, which we have been meaning to do forever, because Cards Against Humanity is super-cool about licensing its likeness to anyone who wants to do stuff at it, like a Wonkette Expansion Pack!
So you go down there, and you do your open thread "I am eating pancakes" or what the fuck ever you ramble on about, and then you ALSO do funny "answer cards" and "question cards" (black cards and white cards, if you want to be racist about it) that are Wonkette-themed or -related!
If you do them good, we will make that for you. OR WILL WE? Yes we will, and YES WE CAN.
The end.
Cards Against Humanity Job Posting Is The Greatest Thing You Will See Today
I think they gave us the parties and generally what they could say in the problem. This ended up with a trial, two of us representing the P and 2 doing the D. It's been a long time, though, so details are hazy. As for writing, I always opt for keeping it simple. I have a friend who used to teach legal writing and she told her students they should write their arguments like they are explaining it to their moms.
We're in total agreement, I just think we shouldn't repeat "Leave Barron Alone!" when only one idiot so far has had a poor-taste tweet, since it puts the left on the defensive and creates a sense that Barron is under attack when he's too boring to bother.
