    If they are going to fix the "woo" button to something more clear I think there should be a "Thank you" button.

    I think there should be a (limited) drop-down menu so you can choose your own specific reaction to a post.

    Yeah, I'm a dreamer. :)

    I love this idea!

    That's not a bad idea at all. Rather than having "Insightful", "Inspiring", "Like", "Woo" and "Hug" along the bottom of each post, we could choose from those and maybe a couple more ("Disagree", "Awesome!") from a small drop-down list.

    Is that what you mean?

    Variable would be too difficult to implement. Menu choice is easier.

    Yes, but I'm still a dreamer. :D

    What about "Congrats!!"

    That might seem appropriate for when people post a weight loss or that they've met a fitness goal or something.

    Ha, I'm glad this thread got bumped - I've been dying to post one of the latest additions to my woo count!

    In a migraine thread:

    "I'm sorry for that. Mine don't last as long and I can't even imagine dealing with the pain for days."

    Wow- that's a good one! So either you're not sorry, you *can* imagine dealing with that kind of pain, or "woo-hoo" that you can't imagine it ;)

    My latest one:

    "Not really."

    It was in response to being asked if I was bored.

    OMG, I saw that!

    Mine was 'Also shrimp, the bugs of the sea.' :lol:

    Regarding things that are weird to eat, when you really think about it.

    Well, to be fair, the "What's your unpopular opinion on - " threads always turn into a hilarious woo-fest :D Delicate flowers need not apply (cause there's always someone jumping in with a heartfelt plea for everyone to be nice. But no, there's nothing to be nice about when someone disses diet coke.)

    I'm just fascinated that we got to halfway down Page 5 without a Ric Flair meme. (Of course, it was hidden in a collage of other memes. An exclusive Ric Flair meme is found on Page 6.)

    These young'uns don't know who Rick Flair even is. :)
