I've even been (gasp) MISSPELLING WORDS.
As long as you don't mispronounce your wedding vows, you'll probably be okay.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Did you accidently change the size in your browser (say by using the mouse's scroll wheel while holding down the control key)?

Emily mentioned something in Boxed Set that had me wondering -- would it be useful to display the thread slug inthread under the title (except not on the first page, because that has all the details)?

I'd rather see the first page info, since that's where the thread rules reside. Perhaps if we used a smaller font than the current first page font it wouldn't be quite so objectionable.
