(I have) a conundrum.

When I ask for likes, I get dislikes. When I invite dislikes, I get dislikes. I dislike dislikes. I feel trapped. I'll probably get dislikes for mentioning this.

Clearly, I'm fukked.

I always like the Swonkey dislikes 2 weeks after the post was made. Those are the best. You know he has real intent at that point.

Hell, earlier in the year he was going back to years-old threads when we hired Butters and disliking any post that didn't slam the hire. That kind of dooshbaggery will get your like/dislike privileges revoked.

And yes, with one click I can take that option away. Someone says something insane, you look for the dislike/facepalm/drunk icons, and there's nothing there.....just a blank wasteland. Just imagine that kind of hell.

Someone is in a Grinch mood.

I do too. I generally like to know the buttons. It also makes me laugh most of the time.

As the king of dislikes, likes and especially dislikes tend to push people towards conformance and uniformity of thought. Kind of turned this place into Facebook.

It is also partly just popularity contest. I came back as a different identify once and nobody knew who I was and I got lots of likes and hardly any dislikes even though I was saying mostly the same things.

Reinventing yourself as L-boy's cousin with the Foley av is probably not the most undercover thing you can do.
