    I haxxord their system and I apparently have 159 woos distributed over a total of 50 posts.

    Did you do that in public?!?!?!?!? :open_mouth:

    Pfff, what do you know...you have 59 woo's distributed over 41 posts. One post on May 3rd had 5 woo's!

    Are you hand counting the posts? Or am I missing a click somewhere. I know I have 332.

    Yes anytime anyone gets woo'd I write it in my notebook. Your highest woo'd post was 5 woos.

    LOL, thanks for nothing, but seriously, I don't see a post count anywhere on the linked pages.

    In Chrome I go to the page, go to the more tools menu and developer tools, then view the source code for the page under the sources tab. Then I scroll through the file structure to the plugins tab and go to the css definitions and.....hah hah no actually yeah I just hand count them.

    My husbands friend gets bags and bags of blueberries and eats them with spoonfuls of peanut butter. When asked why, he says that it's a super food and that it's helping his body because of the nutrition . He didn't want to believe that the calories still counted.
    He started to walk up to others and talk to them about how they should be eating super food too.

    Now he's 310lbs and 5'8. I guess the calories did count after all. Lol
    He stopped walking up to strangers to preach about the super foods now but my husband said people would roll their eyes and walk away quickly or say something like well then you eat it. Lol

    Hearing "super food" would have made me stop him right there in his tracks.

    I used to read those clickbait articles and always ended up feeling a little anxious because I either didn't like the foods or would have to change my whole way of eating to incorporate them. At one point I spent some time really thinking about the whole concept and came up with

    1. Most of the articles were worded "studies show eating this food may contribute to a healthier heart". You can find a legitimate study that shows most nutrient dense foods contribute to heart health one way or another.
    2. "This food is high in antioxidants". And so are a bunch of other foods not on the list.
    3. If I tried to incorporate a serving of every superfood in every article at the recommended frequency I would be eating 3000 calories a day. How do you pick and choose? Heart health is more important than cell regeneration? Let your brain degenerate in order to support your gut?

    To be honest having the ability to view who clicked what in the little emoticons on the bottom of posts would just add to more drama and wouldn't really add anything truly useful to the conversation. I pay attention to what people say, I couldn't care less what anonymous person decided to click a button without expressing why. I mean how does knowing that it was BobSlayer2442 that clicked "woo" on my post help me exactly?

    If one of my posts gets actually responded to with a response then I will care enough to take the time to read and respond. If someone responds to my post by clicking a button and saying nothing I honestly don't care.

    Do I really want to see a bunch of "Hey, why did you click woo on my post BobSlayer244!?!?!?" posts filling up the forums? Not really.

    I'm hoping that the fictitious BobSlayer 2442 becomes some kind of MFP meme, like making up your own *babysloth* curse replacements.
