9 MLA Interviews
It wouldn't be so funny if it wasn't so close to being true--we are all academics at this site and we believe it is important to laugh at ourselves:
Mike--thanks, the comments wouldn't let me do it so I'll try later in a post.
Dobry--I watched every one of these, they are brilliant--I wonder how many interviews actually end up like this. Academia is full of a lot of crazy people and we are under a lot of pressure when competing for jobs... like I said if you can't laugh at yourself...

So, did you figure out the crossed out text thing yet? Remember, it's:
< strike >text< /strike >
Remove all four spaces. Your comments wouldn't allow me to type it otherwise. Replace "text" with your text. Good luck!
I wouldn't have thought it possible to construct a parody funnier than the real thing. I'd have been wrong. This is brilliant!
