thraed vs. detrius

sarahell, Saturday, 12 December 2015 19:55 (ten years ago)

detrius I don't mind, or at least it isn't the continuity with the misspelling that makes it a crap thread title, also it's only one month of the year (never click on the thread though)

I dislike every thread title that contains the threadstarter's display name

I had to check that there wasn't one of these near the top of new answers so nobody thought I was singling them out, this is always bad even though it includes some of the best threads and some of the best posters, it is a truism but talking about yourself in the third person is horrible

like the only way that coach me up thread title could be worse is if it were called
the "White Straight Guy Who Sucks" Narrative and corresponding lack of "... Who Sucks" in anything other than indie snooze: ILX coaches Tombot up

i don't mind that clientele thread-title these days, though - it's quaint

imago, Wednesday, 13 July 2016 18:28 (nine years ago)

lol

O, Barack: flaws (wins), Wednesday, 13 July 2016 18:33 (nine years ago)

i had to google coaching up.

scott seward, Wednesday, 13 July 2016 19:31 (nine years ago)

i mean i got the idea, i just wanted to know where it came from. it comes from a place i don't want to know anything about.

HIRALLY CLIMPS FOR PRESIDETN • US presidential elections part VII

lol i thought this thread was bumped because someone posted to that Le Fopp thread yesterday ... but yeah, that thread title is worse than Le Fopp

"part vii"

thank god hirally climps is gone

, Thursday, 11 August 2016 14:23 (nine years ago)

I sort of liked it but you kind of had to be there for the origin.

Anyway, current title is probably the first objectively non-terrible election thread title in a very long time if not ever.

socka flocka-jones (man alive), Thursday, 11 August 2016 15:00 (nine years ago)

excuse me, i know all about ornaldo bloomps

, Thursday, 11 August 2016 15:04 (nine years ago)

yeah but it was still funny at the moment when em came up with it in whatever thread that was

socka flocka-jones (man alive), Thursday, 11 August 2016 15:05 (nine years ago)

new one is pretty bad too tbh

the new USA show MR. ROBOT: the rise of Rami Malek and the inexplicable solidness of Christian Slater

'inexplicable solidness' is just a very bad phrase i'm sorry

'inexplicable solidity' might have been even worse

every long poll thread title makes me want to leave ILM asap. still. after all these years. like, i don't even want to talk about music anymore when i see them. now that i think of it, maybe they are blessing because then i go back to work instead of talking about music....

scott seward, Tuesday, 13 September 2016 17:28 (nine years ago)

I hear you. I'm waiting on a poll/discussion thread on the entire history of music from the caveman era to the present day.

Bottlerockey (Tom D.), Tuesday, 13 September 2016 17:32 (nine years ago)

they look like SEO'd-out ebay/craigslist listings

riding a display name through (brimstead), Tuesday, 13 September 2016 18:39 (nine years ago)

feel like all the music will disappear if we don't eventually poll it

riding a display name through (brimstead), Tuesday, 13 September 2016 18:40 (nine years ago)

maybe it's for the best

dr. mercurio arboria (mh 😏), Tuesday, 13 September 2016 20:33 (nine years ago)

it might be. if i actually make the mistake of going ON one of those threads my initial reaction is: ugh, i gotta sell all my CDs.
