“Likes” Farming

Well Al, it's plain to see you don't play fair. You asked me via private message to lay off you yet you seem to have a license to jab at me anytime you like. Be a big boy and learn how to take it as well as dish it out. I would never EVER ask someone via PM to stop joking about me or make a report on anyone. That kinda stuff doesn't happen where I'm from.

Would you be able to share with us all what you consider "odd and creepy"? I think what you are referring to might have been jokes.

The WRUW thread should be taken very lightly in my view.

Unlike most other places where I offer up any sort of reaction, I try not to think as I scroll through the WRUW thread. If I am forced to analyze what I do - please don't force me analyze.

Thank you. 😉

But . . .

If I do think about it at all, sometimes I am "liking" the watch; but sometimes I am "liking" the context . . . even though the watch itself may not move me. Sometimes I "like" the photography technique as I imagine that the poster may be going for an effect. Maybe the guy has an equity position in Duncan Donuts, for example?

Sometimes I am moved by the the way the subject is lit. Lighting is so important in photography. At other times I like the elements of the composition - the way the poster put things together whether by design or accident. It hardly matters when the result is artistic or artful . . . and satisfying.

One thing I try very hard not to do is think about anything while I am perusing the WRUW thread.

It's Zen. It's the finger pointing at the moon. If your monkey mind does not get it; no worry. The rest of us will pick up the slack.
