Appreciation for Appreciation Threads

Sign in to disble this ad
I for one appreciate them. I never appreciate anyone until they score an appreciation thread. It's like, I wouldn't date myself unless myself had an appreciation thread about myself.

Discuss??

I can't appreciate that. I think someone can be appreciated without an appreciation thread. The Qintar never got an appreciation thread... I rest my case

But FL Knifemaker, I appreciate you. But I won't date you!

I appreciate you starting this thread.

Now if we can just start an Appreciation Thread Club we will complete the circle of annoyance.

I'm quite the opposite. I think that by the time an appreciation thread is posted about someone, it's really a sign that they are yesterday's news. Don't get me wrong, I support holding up eachother's nutsacks as much as the next guy, but the appreciation thread is a kiss of death.

Besides, they're gawdy. Kinda like putting grillz and curb feelers on your internet personality.

Mike

I am not sure which of those comments I fear more!

But yeah, 'appreciation', while not necessary, is, well, appreciated, but you're right, we really don't need threads to say so.

Not only have I not been around long enough to warrant an appreciation thread, people seem to appreciate my opinions about as much as they appreciate cancer.

Maki, I appreciate the fact that you can always be relied on to supply us with some sort of comment that can be funny and awkward at the same time! Is it because you're not a proud man?

I don't put a lot of thought into it. I can appreciate a blank mind.
