--- Cannot tolerate this character at all. Starting a petition to get this character removed from the show. -- Don't like the character. - Wish this character wasn't on the show as much. 0 or plain code: No real feelings either way about this character + Like this character. ++ Big fan of the character. +++ Cheer for this character. My "raison d' etre". Pay attention to every word this character utters.
In addition to the above, add one of these where it applies:
