There is also too enough confusion associated with this button for me to not use it.

1) The button is marked Thanks.
2) I think if you press it it adds a Like, not a Thanks
3) The button calls post_groan.php with parameter post_groan_add. When does it add a Groan?
4) 'Like' is not just a verb, it has many uses as follows :

To a native speaker, 'like' is a very weak word :

"I would like to go for a walk".
"Q. Want a cigarette? - A. if you like".
"I would like to go to bed now"
"He smells like Grandpa Simpson"
"I would like to go shopping"
"He was like, cool man"
"Looks like it is going to rain"

Just some of the 10 different way 'like' is used in the English language.
