@GottaLaff One of the unfortunate things about social media is that most people may really appreciate something, but the replies to a post tend to trend negative, except for cat pictures. This gives an overall impression of negativity, whereas the truth is that almost all of us really like your dog! 🐶 👍

@GottaLaff But kidding about cats and dogs aside, this is actually an issue that drives to the heart of who we are as a community. You don't need a substantive reason to respond to a post. Posters here are people just like you and they are kind of hanging it out there when they share something. If you are simply informed or humored, just let them know. People like @GottaLaff don't do this for any compensation other than your appreciation. It's friendly and cool to simply say thank you.
