I was way hard put off by it ........

cos it seemed to me suddenly we are judged again dammit!!

and likely we are...this world wants to kno what is like or not!!??

I mean!! come on....!!

it's freaking ridiculous

do we really need to know if what we said was liked?

especially if it was directed at only one person like most intense feelings are?

suddenly we are getting the opinions of others...

SO?

what does this mean?

and autism will explain!

the most important things to you will always be this way and never any other way....

humans sticky beaks want to get inside and complain.....

this new technology has tested me out...and I figured it out real quick...

once I discovered people only care about themselves....just like I only cared about what I just said!....

and it can be meaningless iff you like it that way...

I personally don't like the "like" button...

it's an infiltration to this sight...

it's very wrong!

to subject the mentally ill to questions??

psych central

you got this one wrong...

...my advice?

try not to keep up with the typical world

you got this one wrong...really wrong

James
Thanks for this!

I'm trying real hard to not click "like" on your post James but I'm feeling bit impulsive. But will control myself.

I don't think you like Facebook but have to tell you about a post I saw tonight. It was a picture of a local hot dog stand called Happy Hound, I've always liked the place since I was a kid, but it burned down yesterday and someone posted a pic of the poor little burnt square building. All sorts of sad comments people made, I wrote a sad comment too that I will miss my favorite kraut dog they made. But FB does odd things, and suggested, "Be the first of your friends to 'like' this post!" I don't know why it made me laugh, I guess the awkwardness and stupidity of FB to suggest it. I was so tempted to click "like" just to be a rebellious weirdo, I still want to click it, but I controlled myself.
Thanks for this!

Sorry if that was insensitive of me, just thought you'd like the story. I have a strange sense of humor.

I actually kind of like the "like" button. Sometimes "thanks" isn't exactly what you wanted to say. And sometimes it's not a hug situation. So, I don't mind it. I think it's just another thing like thanks or hug.

I think as long as the buttons are positive they are fine. A "dislike" button would be bad.

I agree with Dark Heart X.... I like the new option. I'm big on options. LOL. "Like" is different from "Thanks".
I would select like if I like the persons post. I would thank them if I thought something in their post was helpful to me.
