Thumb scamp

Is it one person or many?

I get tired of thumbing all the zeroes up...

Of course, since I do, maybe no one will notice this stuff.

@farmerman,
She's talking about the thumbs up, thumbs down rating system.

I think.

So, like . . . i could go along behind her, thumbing everything down, and drive her to distraction?








. . . or Gallup . . . whichever is closer . . .

@Setanta,
Probably work as well as giving peanut butter to a cat.

@roger,
Having no cats, i can only picture what it does to dogs--who don't really mind. Does it tend to tinker with the precious little sanity cats possess?

@Setanta,
Most of them love the stuff. Their little mouths just aren't designed for a sticky paste. Sad, really.

@roger,
OH, I was up at 4:30 this morning when some douche bag was brodying around on the ice and smashed into one of our steeper bansk. THen the guy had the testones to come up to the house and shout about the steep banks being a hazrd (Implying that even if he were sober the bank would jump out and smack his pickup).SO I called a tow truck and my wife made us some coffee hoping that hed sober up enough to figure out his driving error.

When the tow truck came, the guy left us with the "Youll be hearing from my attorney" .
What a complete **** head. SO I was up being really testy on some threads. I managed to get back to bed for an hour and a half when the dogs began serenading us for the breakfast.

What was my question?

@farmerman,
I do sympathize with your first post, fm. Took me quite a while to figure out just what the hell Osso was on about. As you implied, it's waay too early of a Saturday morning.

And, truthfully, I still don't know what her first sentence means.

I never pay attention to the thumbs up/down frenzy. Going to "new posts"
and "new topics" will show you everything that's been posted new.

@farmerman,
You... you... steep bank scamp, you!

Ah. On some threads for the last few weeks a bunch of the posters are having anything they say, each individual post, thumbed down even when the post content is innocuous in itself. So I consider whoever is doing that a scamp, probably angry/irritated at certain people. (There are worse words to call people than scamp, and I meant that fairly lightheartedly.) I found myself giving those thumbed down posters a thumb up, in a sort of pavlovian reaction.

But you're all right, probably I was peanut butter deprived at the time.
