Dollars for Upvotes

Dear redditors,
I have been using reddit for a long time, I would say it is where I no question, spend the bulk of my time online. I've been there for the technological breakthrough aricles to Lolcats. I've learned of deaths, world changing events and small town stories of bank robbers in inner tubes all from the chair I am sitting in now. Whenever I got a break at work it would be the first site I'd go on and when I got home it would be the first site I'd check. I have a white and blue pattern on my face from staring at the homepage. That may or may not be true, perhaps I should provide pics or else it may not have happened.
I am like many of you, in need. Not tremendous need, in fact it's pretty small potatoes. Not shockingly,I lost my job as a qa tester about 2 months ago. I applied for unemployment but they sent me a form asking for further identification information. While I had no problem sending them this, it prolonged any actual check from coming, I'm still waiting. I contacted my credit union to ask about a temporary increase in my already past due loan. They said I need a pay stub. Here's the kicker, I have a job starting on the 15th of december. This doesn't help me now. All I need is $610 to cover rent. I'm willing to basically not eat til then and I'm certainly willing to forgo a christmas trip home to boston (I now live in L.A.) all I want is to survive a lousy week til I have another (albeit temporary) job.
So why reddit? I know that there's scams and crap links submitted all the time. I hope you see that I'm not that. I'm a real regular american just looking for a little help in the time of giving. But there's something in it for you.
I know that if it's one thing rabid redditors want, it's not to just be appealed to their heart, but their vampire like hunger for upvotes. So if you can donate just a dollar, I will upvote you to next year. Just leave your reddit name on this post and I will upvote any link(s) you have submitted. I encourage other people to upvote the names seen in this list also. So there you have it, if you can find it in your heart and if not there, your insatiable hunger for tasty tasty upvotes, please help a fellow reddit junkie out. Thanks and may the God of your choice or Richard Dawkins bless you.
