for TBM, as well as various incarnations of the Fairy meme which aren't really gaining a whole lot of traction IMO.
The spelling thing is pretty compelling to me, but I'll let TBM veto it if he wants. Will probably make a decision after the weekend if no other strong contenders come forward. Keep talking!

I think a lot of people tend to start sentences with pronouns...I guess the idea is that a title makes you go "Oh, it's
that
guy!" and since I don't know who the guy is (and it seems many others don't either) the idea of him being "that pronoun guy" doesn't really fit.

The spelling thing has to be the lamest idea we've had. Even lamer than the "buttonmen is plural" thing. TBM is not a particularly bad speller, and even if he is, that's hardly noteworthy.

Got it, next time I will think harder on both the subject and title recommended.
Alright my vacation is over so I'm back at my office (aka back to having MS open more regularly).
Catch up time.

I'm in no rush to get a title and I'd be uncomfortable giving myself a title even if it was community supported.
I'm declining the Bad/Hardass title noms;
TheButtonmen (7:21): I'm declining hard/badass
TheButtonmen (7:21): one of my standing policies is no profanity in titles
TheButtonmen (7:21): I already quashed happy as fuck when it was brought up for gorkat
TheButtonmen (7:22): I had a good discussion with korts/shea back then about profanity in titles
TheButtonmen (7:22): and my policy now is titles are't the time or place for it
TheButtonmen (7:22): also mith put the pg rule into effect for sigs so I assume that means titles too
blargerer (7:23): that is the policy supported by us too. I'm just not sure I count hardass or badass as being particularly profane.
TheButtonmen (7:23): if it was someones title who wasn't me (aka the Titlefairy) and it had lots of support I'd let badass slip under the profanity barrier
TheButtonmen (7:24): but as tf I don't want to ever have any ambiguity / it used as an example

I can confirm this thread is quite informal and I encourage you to keep getting involved in it!
As for the nom if he keeps it up and it's a noticeable trend then by all means feel free to rib away, I'm happy to give out pretty much any titles that get the required community support and isn't too odious.

Yes my Lord, but questions are dangerous, for they have answers.

Soar on wings of retribution and set the world ablaze
Edit: although I'd find the plural joke funnier if the phrase was something that wasn't supposed to be pluralized. Pity Hardasses was vetoed, because that was my favourite.
