The basics of it all is you post something nice about the person who posted before you and then the next person posts something nice about you. Also I feel really bad for you if you are the one who ends the thread though that'll probably end up being me because of the feel badness I talked about before.
Example!

*Person wrote:You are not as bad as Hitler.
Now, say something nice to me and you will get your ego boost by the person who posts after you!
*Not all of the compliments have to be silly but humor is welcome.
