so here's the thing

Vegas recently shared with us the passing off his beloved Roxy. Now, I dont like the post content, but I like the fact that he shared it with us. So using a 5 star rating system I would give it a 3 in appreciation for sharing his loss with the extended family we all have hear, but "liking" it is tough simply because the way I feel, it would mean that you liked the fact that he lost Roxy


Am I over thinking this ?

Yes. Just appreciate the fact that he felt safe enough to share something so personal with us on the site. That's worthy of about 50 likes imo.

I have a really high "like" standard, if something makes me literally LOL rather than just AOTN, or if I'm directly debating something and someone replies in a respectful manner, whilst making a good point that makes me reconsider my original stance.
I generally give a like to acronyms that I have no idea what they mean so I look like I'm internet savvy.

I like pretty much everything I post

Seriously, I usually will like something that I think is funny, especially if they put some effort into it, like creating a picture through photoshop that's really funny. I'll also like something that can be thought provoking...like pretty much everything I post. If I agree with it, great, but even if I don't I will still probably like it.

I'll also sometimes like something that is uber optimistic, like saying the Rams will go 19-0, because someone needs to be optimistic

Pretty much my reaction at the moment, usually something funny, (especially dry), things that can be taken a couple of ways. Things that make me reconsider my opinion.
And posts that I agree with but that are written/explained in a way I would not have thought of.

And anything about dogs.

Sometimes to end an argument - like an agree to disagree.

but usually just because I liked what I saw.

One misguided soul once accused me of playing favorites. But the truth is that I give a like when someone puts in extra effort by posting a video, pic, or article or giving me something to think about. I don't necessarily have to agree with their point of view but only appreciate the effort the member made in their post or reply. I also give a like when someone posts something that makes me laugh. What about you?
I'd have to say I'm like this to.
I also like posts when someone reconsiders an original post instead of being a stubborn ass or posts something that makes me reconsider something very goodthat makes me question my original stance.

And the age ol hot chick pics or vids always get a like from me ;)

I'm with ya man I guess we both over think it. It's like the Facebook post where an animals been abused and it has a pic of the abused animal and there's 400 likes I can't like those post if the content is appropriate I'll share it but can't bring myself to like it.
