Could someone tell me how I lost an apple for this post?

No idea! I can tell you that you're not the only one puzzled and that quite a few people reported it wondering why it had an apple core. I could have been a slip of the finger, or maybe a moderator read something into it that none of the rest of us saw.

I think it must have been an accidental core?  I wondered if when giving a core one is asked if they are sure that's what they want to do, like  what happens with a 'thumbs down' now?

I thought the post was funny and similar to what other's were thinking...she's a great daughter! we all want someone who 'gets it'.

My apologies. It was an accident and i think i fixed it. Scrolling through a thread on smart phone makes the apple core option pop up based on where my thumb hits the screen.

Sometimes the answer is nothing

Mobile devices do random things sometimes.... And poof, the apple core is now an apple.

Wayne, no need to apologize, I was just afraid I inadvertently offended someone.

Thanks to all of you that reported the apple core, and for those that worked to correct it or took the time to send me a PM.  I appreciate it very much.

I seldom go on permies without accidentally scrolling along the thumbs down feature. Then I hit the button saying to cancel it.

I wonder how many times I've given an accidental thumbs-up to some dumbass thing. Doing it on a cell phone means not seeing how many apples you have, which might be a healthy thing.

That happens to me often on my phone as well.  I love the feature that asks if you're sure you want to give someone a thumb's down.

Yup. Constantly.

The absolute worst for me, is accidentally giving someone an apple instead of a core. There is just no easy way to recover from that, cause by the time I can undo it, they already got a message saying that they got an apple.

I'm glad someone fixed it, because it was my post, and I thought it was very sweet. I even read it to my daughter and she liked it too.
