You know, those quotes you might hear in a movie, or on a show, that appear just below your name on the righthand side of the screen…Aren’t they great? I think so…and What’s your favorite of them all?

I noticed them too, they’re pretty amazing. I think my favorite is “Well, we don’t think you’re having a bad hair day”.

Bendrew made the site fun… Just wait til you try to add yourself to your fluther. :)

Heh. Glad you like them. I do too. Every now and then Andrew and Ben will have a thread where Jellies can contribute new sayings and then they pick some and turn them into welcome messages. It’s pretty fun.

I like quite a few. Like “We <3 you” or “Oh, it was so boring without you” or “You’re back! Our wish came true.”

@Likeradar… or when they try to click on a dead end link. (Poohat!)

I like “Here comes your boss. Look busy!”

WARNING!! POTENTIAL SPOILER AHEAD!!

I also like when you want to click on “Add yourself to your fluther” and then a Wikipedia article of Narcissism appears. Priceless!

They’re a wonderful touch. Same with the email notifications when you get a reply to your question.
“You’ll never believe it Sarcasm, there’s great news! You’ve received a response!”

Also, I’m a fan of adding myself. I found that in my first 5 minutes here at Fluther and fell in love (On Airow, a similar site, I was my own friend).

Here is the old compliment question.
And here is a passive-aggressive version.

Read through and have some chuckles.

Wow, thanks you guys…my favorite is “Does your mother know you’re here?”

I love the random compliments.
How many people give you random compliments during the day?

@The_Compassionate_Heretic not too many! Fluther’s pretty awesome, haha. Have you ever played with the flutherbot in AIM? It’s kind of funny =)

Chongalicious (2771

@Chongalicious It’s funny when you talk dirty to Flutherbot. He gets all flustered and confused… or at least he used to.

Allie (17541

I think I’m going to start texting random compliments to people and then I can be part of this thread… and make people smile in wonder and awe…

I like “Your hair looks great today”

mainly because I know mine never does.

A few I like:

The Nobel Committee called; we told them you’re busy.

You’re the cream in our coffee.

You have that certain je ne sais quoi.

You have something in your teeth…left side. Other left. Got it!

Ahoy matey.

I liked it on April Fools Day, myself.

DeanV (14216

… so, i just got “It’s not true! You look nothing like the chupacabra!” That was pretty amazing. Had me laughing out loud.

Fluther baked me a cake!

But seriously… reminds me of the Unix Fortune program. Observe:

I agree with @dverhey April Fools was fun. I can’t find the link but I’m sure the link @Allie gave us had many of the greetings that were used.

Now I’ll get back to construing drivel elsewhere.

I love short but profound or silly lines from movies, written words, etc
The only one that comes to mind at present is from a song, can’t even remember who sung it, but it says “I wish I didn’t know now what I didn’t know then”. There are SO many out there. wish I knew where there was just a list to compare to. Yogi Beara had some great lines too…“it’s just like de ja vu all over again”.

Fluther makes me feel special. I get all warm and fuzzy when it says “We’ve been expecting you”

LOVE the random quotes…and thoroughly enjoy fluther, really appreciate the way it is run, the ability to choose those questions which are meaningful or just plain fun to answer and also the sarcasm as described above. I feel bad that I’ve not been online for some time, but couldn’t be avoided. Life does get in the way sometimes of fun!

The little quotes are part of what gives fluther its irresistible charm! Fluther wants to be just like me when it grows up!
