This new shimmy verses like button...
Here is how I see it:
"Like"=thumbs up to an idea or an opinion
"Shimmy"=brilliant thought, high 5, fist pump (Hey, I'm from Jersey), so amused I physically send you a shimmy
"Dislike"=thumbs down, bad idea, distasteful
"Funny"= Funny Haha or a sarcastic umm yeah thats funny...not (would also need to make use of appropriate emoji or gif)
"Informative"=imparting interesting or pertinent information Ya know like one of those @BlueCat @ACEDAD kind of posts and I mean that in the nicest way.
"Old Thread"=a very handy icon to distinguish an interesting thought on an old thread
"Gossip"= (now this is a tricky one but useful) This one could be used to accuse someone of gossip having nothing concrete to back what you say or possibly as a way to distinguish a post as "something I heard from my sisters, cousin's ex-boyfriends, brother-in-laws, wife.
"Bullying"= (another useful but potentially abused icon) Bullying is in the eye of the beholder or in other words my version of what constitutes bullying may not be the same as yours. Hopefully it will be used sparingly in the spirit it was intended.
Okay for those of you who read my rubric...thank you. It took a whole 5 minutes of my life that I will never get back. Please feel free to add your interpretations.
