The Warm Fuzzies Thread!! :3

I thought I would make this thread as I like someone to talk to when I'm feeling down. And I know that other people do too! Grin So, tell us about your bad day here and we'll be sending some fuzzies your way!!!

While we will be very understanding here, there will be RULES put in place:

1. NO FLAMING - This thread was for people to let their emotions out after a hard day. If I see anyone being mean to someone else, in any way, then they will be reported and the post will be deleted.

2. NO SPAM - Spam includes, but is not limited to: "I had a bad day. Unhappy", "Bad Day.", "My day sucked.", "My cat died.", "A wolf ate my frog.". Tell us what made your day bad, explain it, and why it affected you as much as it did. A good example is: "I had a bad day today. I was bullied at school for having to get braces. They pushed me around and I ended up getting bruised. Unhappy It hurt me really bad.. I need some fuzzies." I reserve the right to define spam in any way I want. Serious

3. DON'T MAKE POSTS THAT HAVE NO REAL VALUE - This isn't the same as spam. Example: "I made a face on a piece of paper and it blew away." NO ONE WILL WANT TO GIVE YOU FUZZIES FOR THAT. You can get another piece of paper and put the same face on it... But if it had sentimental value to it then explain why. For example: "My dad died when I was 6... We used to make faces on paper and pretend that they were talking.. It's really the only thing I remember about my dad. But today, the first face that we ever drew was ripped.. Now, I have nothing left of my dad.. I need some fuzzies.. Crying". That would be something deserving fuzzies. Please make posts that people will care about.

4. NO POSTS ABOUT BEYBLADES BREAKING - There is already a thread for that.

5. YOU DON'T HAVE TO SHARE IF YOU DON'T WANT TO - If you have something that made your day bad, but you don't want to share it, then don't just post, "I had a bad day. Unhappy". That's spam. If you don't want to share why your day was bad, then don't post in this thread and find one of your close friends, irl, to talk about it. They will (most likely) be more than willing to give you fuzzies.

6. BE RESPECTFUL - This rule goes hand in hand with Rule #1. If you have nothing nice to say, then don't say it. If anything, just say this: "I'm sorry you had a bad day. Unhappy I give you some warm fuzzies (insert username here)."

7. ALL WBO RULES APPLY HERE - This Rule is self-explanatory.

8. BE ENCOURAGING IF GIVING FUZZIES - Don't say, "I give you fuzzies. Life sucks.". Be encouraging and tell them that things will get better!! Be positive. Check below for additional tips on being encouraging.

9. NO EXCEEDINGLY LONG CONVERSATIONS - If you reply back to someone, still talking about how your day went and the conversation goes above three posts each, then its time to take it to Private Messaging. This will help the thread stay relatively uncluttered.




HOW TO GIVE FUZZIES!! Cute


This isn't really that difficult. Be encouraging and positive! And if you were once in that predicament, tell them how it went with you and what you did. Smile


Example: "I need some fuzzies. Today, my dog got hit by a car. His name was Lucky and he's been with our family for 9 years now... He would always play with me when I was younger. Not only that, but he was my grandma's dog.. She died of cancer when I was 5 and Lucky was the only thing which made me feel connected to her.."

What you should reply: "I'm sorry that Lucky died today. I bet he was a really good dog. And my grandma died when I was young too.. I have nothing really to connect to her either, so I got a picture of her and put it on my mirror so I see it every morning. Now, I feel as if I know her like I should. I give you some warm fuzzies.. Don't worry, things will get better."





So, I think that's everything!! I'll be sure to update the OP if I think of anything else! So share your bad days and get the encouragement you need. Cute
Hm, it is true that some people just need some positive comments for some things, for instance, today I saw a kid hit the snow on the side with his launchbag violently out of frustration so he must have had a very bad day. However, you could probably use the Random Thoughts topic for that now that it is reopened. As long as people do not start moaning their heart out, it can be done there.
