I can't help but be reminded of the Dr. Seuss classic with the recent karma development. Here all of us are trying to get karma so that we can feel like the "coolest Sneetches on beaches". Then comes along Sharper (aka the "fix it up chappy" ) with his negative karma machine and all of a sudden negative karma is all the rage. I just noticed on kiwibacon's last post he has almost -16,000 karma. As for myself, I feel comfortable with my own karma status and will stay right here at 10. But, if the stars align one way or another and I sky rocket or plummet, I guess it's all good because it will be in style again eventually anyway.

Well said WACoug, well said.

Karma to you! j/k

I was just bored one day at work and wanted to play with the code... I am not sure why you singled me out...maybe I was just one that you just happened to see...as many have stated,the karma is stupid and does not equate to much. If you have been on this board long enough you know who contributes and who detracts.

I wasn't singling you out. You were just the first one besides Sharper that I saw with unnaturally low karma. It wasn't meant to be an indictment on anyone, just an observation.
