New Bitches thread, please?
I don't know what title.
A thread to discuss naming threads, board policy, new thread suggestions, and anything else that has to do with board administration and maintenance. Guaranteed to include lively debate and polls. Natter discouraged, but not deleted.

New Bitches thread, please?
I don't know what title.
Already been brung.
I went with Susan's because, well, I liked it, and it was the most recent thing I'd seen.
Thanks, Plei.
Natter 13: Maybe it's not such a good idea for you to piss us off.
I like it.

Oh, yeah. This is perfect.
Oh, I love that.
The thought does occur to me that while HostRocket won't see the thread title, occasional newbies might do as they find this site and its attendant warning not to piss us off. Is it too belligerent for people who are unfamiliar with the backstory?

I don't think so. (a) it's a show quote (b) we're snarky (c) most folks lurk before posting so they'd know what we're about. Also, other thread titles aren't so crabby.

True, but (a) Not everyone will recognise it off the bat, nor will all those who recognise it know why we chose it and that it's not directed at, say, them (b) I don't think 'snarky' is the first word that comes to mind concerning this proposed title, I mean we're considering it because essentially we were sufficiently pissed off at HR to discuss, albeit reject, legal action - that's beyond snarky to me (c) they'll see the thread title before they even decide whether to lurk, let alone post.
It may not be a big deal, really, it just makes me a bit uneasy as a thread title.

We don't need no stinking context.
