Top 5 Comments of the Week

Snellville Patch commenters are opinionated, witty and engaging. Sometimes your comments deserve to be recognized! Here are just a few of the entertaining or insightful comments posted this week:

"Perhaps the Gwinnett County School Board members who are denying Mr. Reinhart's request should spend a little time in the classroom where they can learn the meaning of the words, "exception" and "compassion". Mr. Wilbanks has stated, "we have requests frequently to do the type of thing they have requested." And I'm sure every one of those requests comes from someone who is dealing with a life-threatening or life-changing disease..." Dave Emanuel on .

"I am new to Snellville and Briscoe park is very close to me. I am glad that they are making the renovations. I think it would be great that my kids will have a better and safe park. I can't wait for the finished product. I say money well spent." Joyce Hall on

"I share what I want to share. If people don't want to read it, they are welcome to unfriend. If others share more than I want to read, I can hide them or unfriend them or just ignore those posts. Seems pretty easy to me!" Dawn on

"I am not saying Facebook is a bad thing in moderation but too many people are obsessed with it. When people are on Facebook, they are sitting on their butts, often eating M&Ms or cookies. If you want a more accurate way to use your 98% figure how about this: 98% of people who spend more than an hour each day on Facebook likely have large butts. We can have a show of hands. If you are over 25, spend more than an hour on Facebook each day and don't have a fat butt, please raise your hand." Mike Horseman on . 

"That's just sad." Lynchsales on
