Memes: Anonymous Christmas Cheer!

[strangetomato]

Meme time! I try not to go overboard with memes, but this one just seems full of holiday good will. Won't you play along?

Description taken from the very first time it was posted:
'Tis the season to... make a million memes to let everyone know just how much you appreciate them and love them. :D

Here's the plan: You comment with your username, and people will comment ANONYMOUSLY with things they love and cherish about you. I say anonymously because it makes the atmosphere lighter and more mysterious, kind of like a Secret Santa only with love and holiday cheer! People will wonder who these caring people are and appreciate the fact that they exist, not only the fact that they may be best friends with them.

Then find people you care about and have something nice to say to - even if you don't know them! - and leave them something that will make their heart feel a little warmer at night. This way, the love will go around and around and the magical spirit of the season can be cherished and appreciated by all.


You can find mine right here. If you post one, you can comment here with your link and you just might get a little anon love of your own. ^_^

ETA: I now also have another thread at allthingsimlish , so you can go there instead. And why not join the new comm? It'll be fun!

Just as a thought, would it not be better to re-post this on a more Simming-Centered community? There are over 39 pages and increasing, and very few are actually Simmers xD

we could do a sims one over at sim spam.

oh wait, they probably don't have anon comments enabled.

[strange-tomato.livejournal.com]

Could you enable it for one post?

I think we should at least post an announcement of the meme there and have people comment with their links. It'd be fun.

Hell, any activity at all on sim_spam would be fun.

[naughtydolphin.livejournal.com]

It would have to be turned on for the whole comm, I think.

[strange-tomato.livejournal.com]

Then we should do an announcement, for sure, don't you think?

I miss the sim_spam days. It sucks that simsecret is pretty well the only social forum for simmers on livejournal these days.

[naughtydolphin.livejournal.com]

yeah things died out in there :/ I know sukkamielli doesn't get much lj time lately, so she doesn't have time for sim spam. I might send her a message about it.

[strange-tomato.livejournal.com]

Yeah, that's understandable. I'd love to see it pick up again, since the Sims 2 comm is far from dead.

If she's too busy, one of use could always post it, right?

[naughtydolphin.livejournal.com]

oh for sure. I thought I'd see if she'd like another mod on board. we can't do an anon one on there without a mod changing the settings, but we can link to the one that's going around.

[strange-tomato.livejournal.com]

Okay, I get it now. It'd probably be easier to use the one that's already there.

[naughtydolphin.livejournal.com]

Probably, but I went and made one for simmers anyway lol here. sim spam doesn't have anon commenting, and simsecret only goes once a week, it might work. or it might not. it's worth a shot ;)

[simgarooop.livejournal.com]

Then I guess we'll have to start pimping this community big time! :)

[naughtydolphin.livejournal.com]

I'm just about to post to sim spam:)

[simgarooop.livejournal.com]

I just posted the link to my journal :)

- I hope it works!

[naughtydolphin.livejournal.com]

me too! :D

[strange-tomato.livejournal.com]

Oh, that's super cool! We should try to make good use of this new comm.

(Sorry I sort of disappeared there. I had to go have a major coughing fit. It was... very unpleasant.)

Now we have to spread the word about this new comm. ^_^

[naughtydolphin.livejournal.com]

It will hopefully have all sorts of good uses!

No worries with that, I'm just getting over a nasty cough. It doesn't want to go away yet, ugh.

[strange-tomato.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I hope so.

Ugh. Not at all. It just changes daily to keep things interesting. This whole violent coughing reaction to trying to eat something is a new development. *groan*

At least the headache kinda, sorta went away. *crosses fingers*

[naughtydolphin.livejournal.com]

Oh that sounds horrible. I hope it clears up soon!

[strange-tomato.livejournal.com]

Thank you. I have to stay home for at least another two days, either way, so feeling a little better would be great.

[strange-tomato.livejournal.com]

Yeah, but if you link to your thread, it doesn't really matter. That's the beauty of it, I guess. It's for pretty much all of livejournal.

Though I guess it could be mentioned in a simming community. Does anyone still go to sim_spam?

You should post a link to your own in your own journal, then it'll just start spreading like all good memes do.
