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

the "White Straight Guy Who Sucks" Narrative and corresponding lack of "... Who Sucks" in anything other than indie snooze: ILX coaches Tombot up - best band since The Smiths?

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

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.

'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.
