I thought this thread title “[Could have a silver lining I guess](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/covid-has-a-silver-lining-i-guess/979099)” was a bit vague, I opened it and read the first few posts and concluded “yeah, definitely too vague, I should report it for a title change” and right then as I was looking for the report button the thread title re-resolved to the correct one right before my eyes.
