When the OPP is my own:
I

Other reasons include:
Your post made me laugh and I appreciate your sense of humour.
I agree with your post
After reading a few posts on this thread, I now try not to empathize with both parties anymore because it could exacerbate the conflict rather than to help resolve it.
P.S.
I also decided to use the emoji’s to express that I find your post funny rather than it.
How refreshing and new. Thank you. Full disclosure I am typing this on my fire breathing gaming desk top. This is so humiliating but it took me a really long time to figure out the whole like thing here. Derp. Hey I finally figure it out and I often think of the like as a “roger that”. It can be a lonely feeling when no one responds and maybe thinks “is this thing on? Bah crickets again?” Typing on a desk top is a different experience and I try to limit my time on the internet but give it my full attention. I avoid shortcuts when possible. Thanks for a new topic
I am a very late, HIGHLY reluctant participant in social media. I’m one of the few people I know that does not have, and has NEVER had, a FB, twitter, Snapchat, Instagram, etc. account. None of them. The closest I get is here/FTC and reddit. And I was a (relatively) late-comer to reddit, having joined in what was the great Digg exodus, though that was just coincidental timing on my part.
So I never really remember to 
or upvote. But I find lately I’ve been taking note of it, and trying to return the favor, because it seems, I dunno… social?
For me it means “I have read your post and value its addition to the discussion.” without any particular endorsement of its content.
Where’d you get my photo from? Next time, ask permission plz.
Me, too. I still forget to hit it.
