One of the (many) interesting discussions enjoyed by those of us fortunate to be ‘in’ on the ‘nobody’ meme has revolved around the concept of nomenclature and in particular titularicity (like that? 
).
Some, in the early hours of the meme-spread, wanted to vote Monsieur Le Jenkins in as Chairman of the Board; others wanted (by virtue of being in on the ‘ground floor’) rather ‘grand’ sounding titles — like ‘Grand Universe Master Overlord of the Southern Hemisphere’, and such.
Monsieur Le Jenkins, however, deftly pointed out the potential error of such a path.
How could we be ‘nobodies’ if we had ‘somebody’ titles? How could we all be nobodies if there was a disegalitarianistic (how’s that one, then? ) culture whereby all were equal (‘nobodies’) but some were more equal than others?
Whilst it pains this humble megalomaniac from the Adelaide Hills to admit it, Monsieur Le Jenkins is onto a bit of a ‘winner’ with that idea.
Tapping into Australia’s ‘tall poppy’ syndrome and the Scandinavian concept of ‘Jantelov’ (wherein a key tenant is ‘Do not think you are somebody’), Brother Allan has challenged me to create and accept as my lot a more humble title.
Hence I sign off this post and remain, as always, your humble Deputy District Supervisor (Acting) for Adelaide Hills Region.
Should you wish to apply for the role and oust me, please request a Job and Person Specification from me via my new email address:

Au revoir and bon chance, as Monsieur Le Jenkins would no doubt say...
Technorati: nobody
