Slashdot Announces Idle Section
For the last few months we've been beta testing Idle.slashdot.org, our offtopic humor/meme/viral video/pictures section. Like many of you, we spend most of our waking hours on-line seeking stuff to entertain our brains, but most replicators out there pick so much content that it's incredibly boring filtering through the mediocrity to find the funny. We intend to fill our idle section with a very small collection of the very best the net has to offer, making it the most efficient way to waste your time. Some of this content will make it back to the Slashdot mainpage, but much of it will be new content that we wouldn't dare soil the precious Slashdot mainpage with. We are also using it as a test bed for new functionality on Slashdot — currently the page is a reasonably dynamic/interactive experience with various voting controls and filtering options. Finally you will see occasional original content, starting with a recurring special feature today where Samzenpus shares some real tech support email from some of our most intelligent readers. We hope you will enjoy wasting a slice of your day with us, and in addition will submit content through the usual channels, but put it into the 'Idle' section so we know not to take it seriously. Now go about your day — it's mid August, so I'm sure everything you do is urgent, exciting, and oh-so-interesting.

Anyone know more or want to spread light on the matter?
I dunno about spreading light, but I will attempt to shed some.
Basically, he has been having personal issues. His fat, ugly wife decided to stop tweezing his needle-sized penis, so he is very sexually frustrated. Masturbating to "Ladyboys" on Redtube no longer excites him, so he is kind of a mess. He was considering divorcing her, but realized that he needed the geek cred of being married to a fat, ugly manatee.
To top it off, his dorky, prebuscent-downy-rat-goateed face broke out in hives from all the stress of being "on top" (of the world, not his fat, ugly wife). Because of this, he is afraid to show his face in public, even moreso than before.
