This - is this a new fad which I've missed?

[dirtydog]

When someone makes a post which you agree with, instead of quoting it and saying 'I agree' or 'good point', it seems fashionable to quote it and say 'This.'

Has this been going on for years and I've only just noticed it, or is it an annoying new fad?

I thought it had been going on for years.

And do I win a cookie for avoiding the obvious response?

It's like saying I agree, but slightly less time consuming! I'd have said it's always been around.

It's like everyone used to put :/

But now it's a 'FAIL' picture of some sort.

I use it, typically in conjuction with the rest of my post - just because really.

But then I typically alternate between saying "this" and "I agree" or even "I concur"

No, now it is the "info Jesus" picture every time.

Fail isnt used anywhere near as much as that (at least as far as I have seen recently).
