Glad you made it back safe and sound, @UglyBetty! Yes, the lack of emojis is frustrating, but I am just grateful you set this up for us “misfits”. ---

When I open Reply there is a bar at the top. One is a smiley face and if you open that you get the other emojis. 😜 ---

I’m replying to myself here. Does anyone know how to get other emojis where the heart is on all the posts? Am I making myself clear? I don’t think I am. But just to comment on a post with an emoji, the only emoji I’ve seen is the heart. Where does that come from? ---

Hi @AuntCarolR! Yes, I know what you mean! On PT, we had “reaction” emojis, like laughing, crying, anger, applause, love, etc. Unfortunately, this forum software doesn’t allow us to have other reactions besides the heart. Trust me, I’m sad too (where’s that sad reaction when you need it?) but I’m looking for a solution if possible. 🙂 ---

Woohoo, found a way we can get the reaction emojis back without changing software! 🥳 We should have the reaction emojis back by Saturday 3/16. Just being realistic and giving myself some extra time, due to my new job as cat wrangler. In the meantime, are there any specific reaction emojis you’d like to see added? I feel like 💩 might be a good one when discussing the Q… 😆 ---

I would love an eyeroll 🙄 one, in addition to the ones we are used to. And maybe a sick or puke one? 🤢🤮 I am so impressed with your skills! ---

I have to second what Youbetcha said and humbly request an eye roll 🙄 and vomit reaction emoji 🤮 And if I can be sincere for a moment… Thank you so much for putting together this new forum on such short notice. It’s been fantastic to see everything come together so quickly! I don’t think I am presumptuous when I say your hard work hasn’t gone unnoticed, and you’ve helped our vibrant and active community continue to share and enjoy our unique brand of humor. ![](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex004/uploads/shoppingsnark/original/1X/12042a0658e68e04cd4bae190e12a8fb4d6bceea.gif) ---

Thank you for the kind words! The old site was a nice escape and I hope this new site can provide that same experience with less moderation and more fun. #nobuzzkillsallowed Plus, we’re open 24/7 and you don’t have to drive home. 🙃 Also, the reactions are now live on the site! Just hover over the heart (or hold down if you’re on a tablet or phone) and you can select from many reactions. Please let me know if you have any trouble using the reactions! UglyBetty ---

@UglyBetty I too sincerely thank you for setting this forum up as a replacement for the PT Shopping channels that was so rudely closed. Also I appreciate the attitudes of the posters on here. Some are new to me, some I remember and some are new names on here. Happy that we can have fun and snark without babysitters. ---

Yes, thank you! I am happy to be able to contribute again. I was banned early on, but refused to ask to be forgiven because it was just satire and pretty darn funny. They need to get a grip and lighten up! ---

I got “notes” from her for referring to Rick wearing a very tight t shirt and his moobs. And another for calling Kerstin a cow. I challenged the latter because in England calling someone a cow doesn’t mean fat, which is what she was slapping me down for. I sent her a British dictionary definition 🙂. She’s still there, just popped on to have a look. She posted this only yesterday which doesn’t read as being particularly “kind” to me. ![IMG_3771](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex004/uploads/shoppingsnark/original/1X/199f867c31c7b9b6e42c3c7c7c0d62fd1ea9cd2d.jpeg) ---

She came after me for saying Diva’s head was getting big, said I was body shaming him. WTF? It was obvious I meant it as he was getting arrogant, too proud, but she was unwilling (or unable) to make the distinction and chose to bully me after that. How do you reason with that? ---

It was obvious I meant it as he was getting arrogant, too proud, but she was unwilling (or unable) to make the distinction and chose to bully me after that. How do you reason with that? I think it requires a higher level of intelligence to understand irony, sarcasm and thus, HUMOR. Also metaphor. Princess scratchy paw obviously had the IQ of a gnat, no offense to gnats.
