  • DeadSkinMask, on 04/21/2009, -1/+75Wow. That sure beats my janitorial position at the XXX-cinema...

  • xXSheepyXx, on 04/21/2009, -1/+58Old and no vancancies
  • ryan83189, on 04/20/2009, -7/+62What's a bikini team, and why do they need to be lubricated?
  • uneqee, on 04/20/2009, -13/+67why wasn't this posted earlier?
  • borez, on 04/21/2009, -1/+53http://www.islandreefjob.com/
  • inactive, on 04/20/2009, -1/+52one can only dream.
    Their search is over and they have selected their lucky few.
  • drewbeta, on 04/21/2009, -0/+50and there are absolutely NO monsters on this island. None at all...

  • prrudman, on 04/21/2009, -3/+51the job is down to the last 5 candidates now. It was advertised last year and did the rounds then...
  • toomuchsun, on 04/21/2009, -2/+49 Do we also get to open mysterious hatches, investigate abandoned research facilities, push a button every 108 minutes, and spend an entire season with a FN-FAL slung over our shoulders? If so, then count me in!
  • RealmDown, on 04/21/2009, -9/+51I like here better when you're at Reddit.
  • ayeroxor, on 04/21/2009, -1/+41huh huh... beats...
  • DickyT83, on 04/21/2009, -0/+39And instead of redrum we'll use ooragnak.
  • BingoPower, on 04/21/2009, -2/+40Not written on advert:

    * Island home to the most crocodiles, poisonous snakes, spiders, mice and rabbits known to mankind
    * Sea around said island home to the most poisonous jellyfish, vicious sharks and other alien behemoths. Seriously those jellyfish will make your mother-in-law's dark frozen sharp soul seem like a twinkie roll.
    * You may be forced to drink Australian beer.
  • Chrus, on 04/21/2009, -4/+41OLD NEWS!
  • GalacticRerun, on 04/21/2009, -1/+38You don't ask, you just do the job.
  • Grummond, on 04/21/2009, -1/+36And where would one locate such a team?
  • DavidTurnbull, on 04/21/2009, -0/+35Uh, this was a huge competition that got a lot of coverage. Why is it getting dugg now?
  • robwhite1979, on 04/21/2009, -0/+34I've never felt the need to say this before: why is this on the front page?? This story literally saturated the internet and conventional media last year when it broke (even my mom knew about it!)... I could understand if there was something new here, but this is just a scan of the posting from around a year ago... The lucky person has already been selected, why not submit a story about him/her instead?
  • Rain12913, on 04/21/2009, -1/+35That was the best job in the world until it directly resulted in the guy being sued and finding out that his two children belong to another man. I'd think I'd go with the island-keeping on this one.
  • inactive, on 04/21/2009, -0/+31You'll have to excuse my friend, he's a little slow.
  • nuketrap, on 04/21/2009, -0/+31Except instead of an Axe we'll use a boomerang
  • EdGasket, on 04/21/2009, -19/+49I liked this comment better when I saw it on Reddit yesterday.

    I don't see the problem re-posting stuff from Reddit to Digg, but trying to re-create the comment thread? Really?
  • astrotrain, on 04/21/2009, -0/+28Randal: You know how much money the average jizz-mopper makes per hour?
    Dante: What's a jizz-mopper?
    Randal: He's the guy that cleans up the nudie booths after each guy jerks off.
    Dante: Nudie booth?
    Randal: Yeah, nudie booth. You've never been in a nudie booth?
    Dante: Guess not.
  • thondar, on 04/21/2009, -1/+29No, This is just a Tribute!
  • repmekevets, on 04/21/2009, -5/+32another question you should ask: how do i properly reply to a comment, and why don't i already know this?
  • bobburn1, on 04/21/2009, -2/+28You're the Swedish male volleyball team lubricator. Don't lie.
  • Ibox, on 04/21/2009, -24/+49IDK, i kinda like the Digg bar. wish it were a little smaller tho.
  • RandomGorilla, on 04/21/2009, -2/+26The phrase "receive free unlimited oral sex" is nowhere in that description. I call *****.
  • g3r4, on 04/21/2009, -0/+24Yeah, someone is going to jump out of the bushes wielding a margarita and a ukulele.
  • Unzorn, on 04/21/2009, -0/+22All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.
