I never thought there’d come a time when I would be annoyed to have four thousand hits in one day. That day was yesterday.

A large snowflake was measured on 28 January, 1887; I mentioned it in a post in 2010; Google Doodle celebrated the anniversary of that snowflake yesterday.
4,225 people came to my blog in search of a Google Doodle snowflake. 4,225 people went away disappointed, without even so much as one – one, mind you, out of 4,225 – ‘Like’ or comment for my large snowflake post.
I’m annoyed. My stats are all out of sync now. Google Doodle better watch it; I’m in the mood to take on a conglomerate.
And what kind of multi-billion pound business celebrates the anniversaries of snowflakes anyway? I’m so irritated, I’m not even going to provide a link to Google, Google Doodle, or any snowflakes. That’ll teach ’em.

That would annoy me to no end as well, all those people and no one had the courtesy to click like. I would be a little put out with Google. They have been up to no good lately this is one of the latest bad choices they have made with their privacy sharing of their clients. It’s wrong, I tell you.

Tilly Bud, you are justified to be so righteously indignant. In order to rectify this injustice I am not going to read your next 4225 posts so that you will come out even.
Please call me when it is time to come back. (I’ll probably be deceased so I will leave it in my will that my heirs must pick up where I left off).
Goodbye.

As some people are known to say…….no good deed goes unpunished !
And what is wrong with them…not a single “like” or “comment”? Not one with a sense of humor ? Sigh big SIGH.
I hope I made up for it a little bit with stars, a like and post on Facebook ! I have another comment, but not sure if I can say it here. Sigh again.

This is too funny! One time I wrote a post about Jem and the Holograms, and got 2,00 views from people trying to read about J.E.M. Oil. I had a feeling they were disappointed in my coverage of a 1980’s cartoon

It’s true that sometimes we feel that comments and likes are what makes us more sucessful. Views are just… well views.
