I admit right off the bat that I am not a very happy person right now anyway. I was appalled when I first saw that "like/share" thing. Yes, it might possibly be appropriate in a few places on PC, but in general, I strongly agree with this idea. We are not facebook, nor should we try to be. I'm not even happy about "trying" it for a week.

If I like something, as someone else said, I will click the "thanks." We are dealing with people here with serious issues, and some of us are in the middle of dealing with our own, and we have enough to worry about without having to be concerned with whether someone "likes" our "thoughts, feelings," etc. If that's not being personal, then I don't know what is.

Why do we have to try something new? If it ain't broke, then it doesn't need fixing.
