I like - Minearvana: Tim in a Bottle - for the first thread. It's not like we can't change the wordering of the thread name along with the title.. Minearvana, Mineareverse, whatever strikes our fancy the day we're starting a new one.
Hmm. It's sounds like the finest party I can imagine getting paid to go to.

Bureaucracy 2: Like Sartre, Only Longer
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.

Thanks for all the fish.

It's also kind of insulting to Tim. It's one thing to tease him with occasionally. It's quite another to permanently affix it to the title of a thread where we'd like him to post.
Oh, I wasn't suggesting permanently. I like "Tim Minear" for the thread name, and PPoL would just be the title 'til we nattered through 10,000 posts, so like what? A week and a half?
...
eta - Elena makes an excellent point.

I'd also sort of like to avoid the implication we're dissing Joss with the "gateway drug" line. Funny though it is.

I think that's why I don't like the "Just A" part of it. I know an awful lot of Buffistas are Tim's bitch. I am crazy about Tim, but Joss is my brain's first and forever love.

Oh my god! We just got a new computer and I'm using it for the first time and the special Buffistas 'B' is in my address window and it's so cool!

I like The Minearverse, followed by thread title.
I like The Minearverse too, as well as Minearvana. The other thread names seem a bit too Tim the person, not Tim the writer. And I don't think that changing the thread name is a good idea. It might lead to unintended crazy-making.

But we do it all the times with Natter. Well, it's always Natter, of course, but the set up isn't always Natter #: Blah blah blah. Sometimes it's mixed up to facilitate cleverness.

I am totally and utterly Tim's Bitch. I'd start a Tim's Bitch thread to talk about narrative structure if I could get away with it. I believe Out of Gas was one of the finest hours of television I saw all last year.
But Joss came first and and and and...
Anyway.
I llike The Minearverse.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Hmmm. I like The Minearverse because it's the proper extension of the understood Jossverse. I prefer references to Tim's bloodthirsty nature to his puddin' persona.

I don't even read the clever, much-argued-about titles any more. I just scan for the key word ("Natter," "Bitches," "Angel") and click.
