+1'd

OK, another stupid question, I see in some places people posting +1'd. what the heck is the " ' " and the " d " for? Is this plural for I like too, or what? I guess being officially in the "senior" age group, I no longer understand the new cool lingo.

Hope the pictures make it up this time, I would love to see it.

Thanks Joao and Lean' n' mean, I guess I sort of get it now. The savings of a couple of key strokes to me doesn't mean much. When it comes down to it I'm not that busy but, that attention span gets shorter all the time. The last time I was told I had a short attention span I hit the Sargent...

OK, this is going to make me look like an idiot but I'm going to ask it anyway. I don't post much but I have read a lot of posts here, as well as many other forms, and I really do not understand what "+1 " means (besides "like") or where it came from. Anyone care to enlighten a forum delinquent?

Wow, what a beautiful hat! I might be a bit afraid to wear that hat also. The harder I try to keep something like that in the condition it is in, I will usually get a spot on it or set it on the counter on a jelly spill.

I haven't been a member of this forum long, but I have loved hats my whole life. I hope this rambling serves as an introduction from me to the forun as well as answering the question of my profession. For the past 26 years I worked for our uncle, Uncle Sam. I am an agricultural engineer for the...

I have been married 37 years and have collected many things of quality and expense such as old Winchesters & Marlins, CC silver dollars, various antiques ect. When she asks for instance, " is that a new gun"? I smile and say "sweetheart, does this gun look new"? She will usually squint her eyes...
