Maybe your own star does not show up unless someone clicks it like I just did yours. I could not see mine untill Jan and Zoogrammy clicked mine. And it looks like it only works for this post clicked on as this post does not have a star. Weird.

I agree Fern.  It is weird.   I had been wondering the same thing.   In fact it doesn't even look like you can see a grayed out star on your on post before someone clicks on it .

Yes, the system is set up so that you will not see the icons on your own post; you can only react to other's posts.

 

Pukkie, can you see the reaction icons on other people's posts?

Fern grows sweet yummy, gummy worms in her garden?! 

 

I agree with Jan on positive and neutral reaction icons (or whatever their called). I am not great with smilelys and thumbs: i often press wrong button while trying post the one I want -- even before dealing with my migraines confusing my thoughts.

I found this http://dragon.sleepdeprived.ca/songbook/songs5/S5_60.htm

I first heard it when i was a child

Worms

Nobody likes me, everybody hates me

I'm going down the garden to eat worms

Long thin slimy ones, short fat fuzzy ones

Ooey gooey, ooey gooey worms

Long thin slimy ones slip down easily

Short fat fuzzy ones don't

Short fat fuzzy ones stick to your teeth

And the juice goes (slurping noise) down your throat

Nobody loves me, everybody hates me,

I think I'll go and eat worms,

Short, fat, juicy ones, skinny winny winny ones,

See how they squiggle and squirm.

I bite off their heads and [slurping noise] out the juice

And throw the skins away,

Nobody knows how I survive

On worms three times a day!

Nobody loves me, everybody hates me

Going down the garden to eat worms

Big ones fat ones skinny ones slimy ones

Yummy, yummy, yummy, yummy, yum!

Uup come the first one, uup comes the second one

Uuuuup comes the third little worm

Big ones fat ones, skinny ones, slimy ones

Yukky, yukky,yukky, yukky, yuk!

Here's yet another version of the song, sent to me by M. Park.

Everybody hates me!

Nobody likes (loves) me,

I'm going outside to eat some worms.

Chorus (Repeat after each verse):

Long, slim slimy ones,

Short, fat juicy ones,

Itsy, bitsy, fuzzy, wuzzy worms.

First you get a bucket,

Then you get a shovel,

Oh how they wiggle and squirm.

Down goes the first one,

Down goes the second one,

Oh how they wiggle and squirm.

Up comes the first one,

Up comes the second one,

Oh how they wiggle and squirm.

Everybody likes me,

Nobody hates me!

Why did I eat those worms?

First you bite the heads off,

Then you suck the guts out.

Then throw the rest away.

Nobody knows how I survive

On worms three times a day!

 

And the words for the other quoted song from 1962 :

Little Boxes

words and music by Malvina Reynolds;

Little boxes on the hillside,
Little boxes made of ticky tacky,¹
Little boxes on the hillside,
Little boxes all the same.
There's a green one and a pink one
And a blue one and a yellow one,
And they're all made out of ticky tacky
And they all look just the same.

And the people in the houses
All went to the university,
Where they were put in boxes
And they came out all the same,
And there's doctors and lawyers,
And business executives,
And they're all made out of ticky tacky
And they all look just the same.

And they all play on the golf course
And drink their martinis dry,
And they all have pretty children
And the children go to school,
And the children go to summer camp
And then to the university,
Where they are put in boxes
And they come out all the same.

And the boys go into business
And marry and raise a family
In boxes made of ticky tacky
And they all look just the same.
There's a green one and a pink one
And a blue one and a yellow one,
And they're all made out of ticky tacky
And they all look just the same.

No the only thing I see at someposts is a thumbs up image That indicates to me that at least someone liked that post but say if I read any message of any other zootek member I seen nothing for me to like it for instance and starts I don't see them anywhere either

Maybe it's my browser Mozilla Firefox?
