When you don't really have a comment,but you think the thread is worth others reading, you "bump" it. It kicks the post up to the top of the "Latest Posts" page --- kinda like keeping the thread in circulation.

Don't apologize hon, it means that someone wants to bump the post. You'll also see bttt(bump to the top), and ping, which is where someone will include screen names of people that one thinks would be interested in the topic posted. When you "bump it", it stays up longer.
