#bernieblackfriday and #circlejerkpileon let's have some Man-gold stems and stalks
#bernieblackfriay and #circlejerkpileon are offering us a contest. So let's get rolling into the why I love steemit question
Take the knife and help me chop the stems and stalks into nice slices - yes, just like the voting-power - I can see, you're a fast one picking up on the essentials! Great job! See, I love steemit for its great way of connecting qualitiy people and quality content! Unpresidented!
Ups you chopped the leaves as well - ach, never mind... See, I'm a full-blooded German girl and I know my way around the circle-jerks thanks to Günter Grass and Sigmund Freud. You know, we'll just have some mangold with fishfingers and mashed potatoes on top of the stems and stalks - does this scare you? Ah, good, I was hoping! See, we're out of milk and cream... but I guess that is a different issue, sorry to confuse you, hubby will take care of this one!
Well done! All nicely cut up - you'll get my upvote and resteem on this! I just love Steemit for making me look up the synonyms of word like mangold... there are so many: Chard, beet leaf, leaf beet, swiss chard...
Oh, the Swiss... ah, that surely is a different topic!
Let's get on - this is well over 25 or 50 words already - who is going to read it? So, beat your eggs - both of them then add some lemon juice, salt and pepper, curry, tumeric and some garlic - as much as you like garlic :-)
It's kinda funny how you get addicted to it in a way, isn't it? But I do like it - I mean this first click on steemit whenever I go online...
How are we coming on with the stems and the stalks? Yes, they need to go into boiling water with some white vinegar added to it - is it hot? Indeed, it is! See, this is another thing I love about Steemit... I can write about real life - my real life... is it of interest? Well, it is fun to write about it, haha :-)
Now it's time to add some oil to get it into the right consitency... slowly, slowly, a bit at a time - don't just rush through it!
There ya go! Great job and well done! Hope you all enjoyed the Man-gold stems and stalks! A great #bernieblackfriday to all of the great Steemians out there and Cheers from the Seven Mountains in Germany!

Interesting. Up to 7 views and 22 votes. I guess that means that your votes are from bots since I would assume a view entails opening up your post to read it. I'm going to resteem this. It's very revealing. While I consider your post quality content, the upvoting trend reveals that quality content is not what Steem is all about. Good move.
Yap, there you go - and there it goes... I have been in bussiness at highest levels for too long - and left it because of the games being played and this is just another stupid game - always the same soup... will stay untill end of this year...posting, haha...
Yes, it is probably unreasonable to expect forthrightness in a fully corrupted social environment.
Scammers, hackers and confidence men. What a letdown.
was thinking about pumping up my volume before I go - does this sounds like a wise plan, hehe ... and just get some upvotes out to the ones who have content to share :-)
That would be altruistic of you and appreciated, but perhaps a waste of your time since you aren't in it for the long haul. Of course, people spend inordinate amounts of time posting on platforms that gain them nothing. It's your call.
You can still curate, upvote and comment without posting, even after you bail. I tend to do better with my comments than I do with my posts. It takes way less time, too. Go figure.
hehe, Know what you are saying -some of my comments got me far more than my posts :-) just got one more out to bernie - for me to analyse, hehe... somewhat enjoying the game... and at the same time waving....
I put the question about bot votes and quality to @tatazkp, on his most recent post where he also used the #bernieblackfriday hashtag. You might want to read his reply to me. He's a guy I respect and trust.
Will do that! I read on his blog a lot, too - definately one of the good guys here :-)
ok, here is the last proof I needed... 5 views and 21 upvotes - so you @berniesanders and all you other whales do not give a single shoot to content... what a sad #bernieblackfriday and #steemisthebest and #ciclejerkpileon!
hey
@berniesanders has a trail of bots. He manually curated this and then his own bots followed him. They do not view, but they are his. I do not know the name of them all but I count 14 at least that Bernie owns.
Thank you so much for your answer @tarazkp - and for your upvote! Maybe I am just too far from all the technical things to really understand the name of the game here ;-) Cheers to freezy Finland from the Seven Mountains in Germany!
You are most welcome. I am also available for questions on DM in steemed.chat if you are there. If not, I do recommend signing up as it is useful in many ways (use your steemit name as it is easier for people to find the blog).
I am not technical either but I have been learning a lot over my time here independently but, most valuable information has come through a few members of the community hell bent on helping. I try to pay it forward when I have an opportunity.
I am glad that @steemed-proxy picked this up too. :)
I'm completely mistified by this black day. I seriously don't get it. Why isn't everyone happy with their payouts? Why would you even think old bernie would read all these? He asked for crap posts and then shared some of his wealth to them. Nice! What am I missing? Maybe he read a few. Who cares? It's not like he likes you.
And why are you posting about it in a chat and not out here?
What do you mean why I am I not posting about it in out here? It is above. In chat, a whole lot of conversations can be had about a whole range of topics, not just individual articles. You are welcome there too.
I don't think @berniesanders read them all but I do know he read many. There were hundreds of posts about this I think so I do not know who could possibly read them all in that time frame.
It is not for me to say who he likes or doesn't but who knows, perhaps he does like me or maybe all the rumours are true and he is a monster that roams Steemit.
This event he ran was meant as a bit of fun for people to let of steam over all of the other arguments that have been going on the last few weeks. There were some funny ones out there I think.
That's what I think. He made some churn on what is normally a slow weekend. I don't get what upsets people. I saw some great posts.
I'm on his side for most of what has filtered down to my land of bottomfish.
If you post in chat it's not on the blockchain is what I mean - that's my goal - to have my work seen and not to go in chats.
Chat allows me the space to play and be less serious. I have had the opportunity to get to know many people there relatively well and have some fun.
