[META] [AFFIRMATION]

Another /u/ suggested days ago that we start utilizing the term [AFFIRMATION] in a title when we are clearly searching for others that can affirmatively say that they recall what someone is posting about. I love being told I'm an idiot like the next guy but it would also help to clarify a theory if we get folks that also recall events a certain way. I posted about Maple Pop Tarts and it was really great to have the outpouring of confirmation that I wasn't alone in this memory. So perhaps we should title our posts with the [AFFIRMATION] title for when we are definitely looking for others who remember. Just a suggestion.

Skeptics won't like that. Will feel left out. Will snark it up anyway. Plus, I wouldn't be surprised if that violated the rules Reddit established somewhere.

See...that's why this was posted as a suggestion.

That's too bad - a bad suggestion shouldn't be posted, as well.

Yes. It's okay, Reddituser, everybody is oblivious to their mistakes until after they're pointed out.

...what?

Anyway I think it's a good suggestion. IMO, it helps frame the discussion in a more positive way.
