    I'm not secretly chuffed OP. I go around quoting myself when it gets thanked. Usually send a copy to some of me extended family and friends. Sometimes I screenshot it and frame it on my wall.

    Real answer: meh, we all respond well to people praising us so I'd say it's no secret everyone enjoys being thanked.

    It's no coincidence that thanks sounds like ****

    Secretly? No. I shout it from roof tops and walk with a skip in my step- it's evident for all who care to see that I am positively delighted with myself.

    I base my popularity in life on thanks.

    After a quick check, I'm about as popular as a pork chop in a synagogue

    My posts dont get "liked" cos I'm not on that sh1t site anymore.

    They do get thanked occasionally though, and I'm openly happy about that, not secretly.

    They can like it all they want, but it's nicer when they hit the Thanks button.

    8 positive votes from a total of 12 doesn't really say there's a large agreement there though. I could make one now saying Beure and get my 9 closest friends to upvote it sure.


    If I had 9 friends...

    I had this one post that was liked by like 60 people or more, and I was just so happy. I'd say it was the single best thing that happened to me that entire year. Funny thing was, it wasnt even a post I'd put much thought into. Like sometimes, you really think about a post, and then you think "this one's gonna be a winner".....and then it just tanks....not one person likes it. But this one, I didnt even think about it, and then I was checking my thank count a few hours later and it had jumped by 20 thanks......Could. Not. Believe. It.

    I never said it before, but Thanks to everyone who thanked me that time.
