Thumbs Up/Thumbs Down: (in place of Special TFR)
  • Thumbs up - Knitters are so great to make purple hats. and baking stuff is awesome!
  • Thumbs Down - Rant here!  Hateful People! If you can't be nice, then shut your mouth. Podcasters are not putting themselves out there for you to evil to. Too many of my podcaster friends have been attacked over the last few years and I'm just sick of it. Constructive Criticism is one thing, being a mean nasty hateful person is not allowed. If you don't like me, then don't watch me. But you don't have to attack me.  And that goes for all my friends.  If I ever find out who is being hateful to my podcaster friends, I will call you out by name. Do you think I'm kidding?
