Threads you were too chicken to start

I often have “How the hell can you wear that?!?!” threads in my head, but I know that they would not go well, I would get called mean names and then I would feel bad. So now when I see someone wearing something that makes me shudder, I just try to look the other way and quit composing the post. :slight_smile:

I just thought of a new one: “Why Do People Post In Threads Without Reading Them First: Or, Don’t Just Repeat What Someone Else Wrote 1 Hour/Day/Week Ago.” :mad:

That might actually fall under the auspices of “What The Fuck Is Your Problem,” though . . . damn, Hal, I think you’re my new hero! :smiley:

You know I’d totally be in your corner. Of course, that’s not necessarily a good thing, but at least you wouldn’t be alone.

I am officially intrigued.

I’ve wanted to start the “favorite drunk dial moments” thread.

Damn, I think I just fell into the category Misnomer described. Can I blame the migraine or the short attention span this time?

I have what could very well be my magnum opus pit thread ready to go. Once a week I paste it in, I point to ‘Submit’, my finger hovers over the mouse button…

OMG!! Why, oh why didn’t somebody tell me you were supposed to cook and eat them? You would not believe what I was actually using them for… :eek:

Every now and then, I mull over the subject line, Really Bad Thread Ideas, to solicit titles for threads that will either sink like stones or turn into trainwrecks.* But then I wonder if that wouldn’t be the actual result of the thread itself, flirting with inflammatory material, so I pull back.

(Sample: “Hey lesbos! Does this make you hot?”) You get the idea.

I think you’d not do too badly with such a thread, especially now. I am aware that Atkins worked very well for some people, but it was a limited number. Anyway Atkin died short and heavier than me, so it obviously didn’t work too well for him.

I wanted to start one that’s titled, What Is Wrong With People?

But I like your version better.

I also want to start a thread about who do you like (non-flirting/romantic) on the bb–but realize that holy hell will result…

I was half-tempted to start a truely MPSIMS thread mentioning that the banks machines here (or at least, the one I used yesterday) now have an option for American currency. Then I decided it wouldn’t go anywhere and didn’t bother.

I was also surpsied recently to have a machine spit out four blue pieces of paper instead of one green one a couple weeks ago. My bank is trying to mess with my head, I think. Didn’t bother starting a thread on that either.

I have an idea for one that I’ve been holding back on for some reason, but I’m not going to tell because I think I’m going to post it anyway.

“Who really believes WallyM7 died, and why?”

I’m not looking for a debate. Just supplying a thread title that fits the OP’s question.
