Boooooo! Why was _Pissy Little Feuds_ changed to _Teapot Tempests_? Did the first title cut too close to the bone for some of that forum’s regulars?

Yah. Tempest Teapots (GD) was Pissy Little Feuds.

And GQ was Got Cite? But changed to the longer name it is now (don’t remember offhand, but I know it has the word “bullshit” in it, heh)

These new thread titles are just a further example of how incivility fostered by liberalness and liberal policies is destroying everything was great about the SDMB.

Which is why I like 'em.

I agree. And we have always been at war with Eastasia, too. It’s doubleplusgood!

I like Pissy Little Feuds better. And I want to keep all of them. But I understand how that would turn newbies off.

Well, dang!

I admit that I haven’t been paying attention recently (I was surprised to see that my last login was the end of January), but I looked for ATMB to see what I’d missed.

I forgot the date… and I may be disappointed to know that the Snuggly Kitten Forum isn’t real, after all.

Or not…
