I, like, do not like it when, like, someone is talking to me and the word like is in their first sentence, like, five times.
I wish real life had a "like" button...and a dislike one, too. How about you?

ReplyDeleteMy son, who has a very responsible job at a small university, has developed the "like" habit when he talks. He'll be 40 in June. He says it's from being around college students so much. I told him it's a bad habit and he needs to stop it! Yeah, well, that was like spittin' in the wind. :}
ReplyDeleteThat bird is magnificent! God certainly does good work, doesn't He? :D

That is interesting thought about real life having a like/dislike button. We should like our life more than dislike it, right? I think it is interesting how people will "like" something on Facebook that is a tragedy, like when someone reports a death or an accident, there will be likes there. Maybe instead of like people should take time to write a brief comment. Loved the bird, so colorful!

Great idea to have a Like button for blogs. I think of it as an acknowledgement also. On FB it would be an appreciation for someones comment, or for a blog when, like you, I don't really have much to say, but like what I read, and want to let the person know I appreciate the post, or that I support their point of view. You should tell Blogspot to add that function to the blog's function. (yeah, like THAT'S gonna happen, ha ha).
ReplyDeleteBeen enjoying your photos! Todays fav: the lion statues.
I can't get over how you are owing this alphabet challenge you're involved. Meaningful posts despite the challenges of sticking to a particular letter. Impressive.
ReplyDeleteI think I posted something on FB a long while ago about feeling odd when hitting the 'like' button when someone shared bad news. I know (that) THEY know I meant it as a sort of silent hug or pat on the back, but I mentioned wishing we had more options than leaving a comment. (So far I haven't figured out how to stop receiving notifications when I leave a comment and then FB feels compelled to notify me anytime someone adds their two-cents.)
ReplyDeleteSorry for the long response! ... But it's nice knowing I'm not a Lone Ranger!
