Well, I think it's a perfectly good word. And since I never use it to describe anyone who isn't anything more than stupid, I will continue to use it as I please (or at least until I run into someone who is offended by it). But thanks for the concern.

No. It's rarely any of those things. But at least I don't get a hard-on posting ridiculous shit using a sock and hoping everyone will think it's real. Or worse yet, post 100 million times with the goal to simply annoy or win a k.

This from the guy who named the board after himself for the next 5,000 posts. That's rich.

1. Bullcrap. Evidenced by the whifferoo "glinda" post to me earlier today.
5. The thread title sucks. If the only way to get rid of it is for someone else to get to post #5000 on this thread, I'd vote in favor of a flurry of one-word posts to get there quickly. It would be less annoying than looking at this title for a long time. And I'm someone who generally likes the real-life Penske. |

Sorry dude, but your "set" is not longer intact as I have purchased and already received my tickets. CLUB LEVEL BABY!!
Expect the painless-removal-of-your-left-nut knock on the door later today.

We could get rid of the naming ritual, if it's such a pain in the ass.
I've got no problem just naming this board "Fashion Board" (or, if fashion really isn't the raison d'etre here anymore, and lord knows the fashion posts of late have been about as boring as baseball posts, then something else) and leaving it at that.

2.
This idea has merit. Maybe we could be a little more creative with it though.
Free-association or something.

Confusingly similar.

It's not usually a problem. I have a hazy recollection of past names that were almost universally disliked and the "honoree" changed it. This would be another good time for that to happen. |

When did that ever happen? Usually there's bitching and moaning but no changing. It's like we're a big family! |

Thread Title
I don't mean to post off-topic, here, but I just wanted to express my opinion that the new thread title is really really horrible. Really awful. I don't think anyone has a right to put something there that is not acceptable to all other posters just because he or she had the 5000th post of the previous thread and because this is what has happened every single other time a new thread has started. Moreover, I am very angry that I have to read this new thread title every time I read the board, except I don't really have to read it, I suppose, because I generally just go to the Forums page and click on the little symbol that brings me to the last post, and the specific thread title does not show up there, although I guess the thread title is always sitting up there at the top of the page, but I generally do not look there either. Anyhoo, I'm really mad about those instances over the next 5000 posts, or however many we have left, that I will happen to glance at the thread title because it is the worst thread title ever in the wold, maybe the universe.
O.K., sorry about the off-topic post. Today I am wearing a light grey Theory sport coat with broad grey vertical stripes, a white Geoffrey Beene dress shirt, and pleated (!!!) lightweight grey pants.

2. The fact that you don't have to see it if you don't want to carries no more weight than arguments that the FCC should not sanction and censor radio and TV because "people can change the channel."
