Yet Another Dance of the Title Fairy: Change Up

[gorckat]

t's more of a personality thing than a username thing. I don't only correct people on my name. I tend to correct people on others' as well. Not to mention I do it in real life. Plus it's pretty obvious what the title is referring to, so that's a nice bonus.

Without first-hand knowledge of what other folks have seen (don't think I've played with Tracey), is there a way to make something of the general corrective trait?

Something like, "No, that's a _____" (with the underscoring).

Or "Actually, ______ is correct".

[gorckat]

Or, assuming spelling corrections are numerous enough, "Dictienary".

[gorckat]

nth Ides of Mash.

It's awesome.

[gorckat]

Propose

new rule to the title fairy thread: If your argument for/against a title is "but, but, but what about <existing title>" then don't bother. Precedence doesn't/shouldn't exist in a title thread. Titles must be good for their own sake.

Would you apply the same idea to arguing against a title- "X title was shot down for Y reason and this one is the same".

I think I'm slightly off target with the idea and am hoping someone will apply it better.

Edit: Derp- it said for/against.

Hard Ass Plurality

Because he's a hard ass Title Fairy dishing out titles based on plurality.

[gorckat]

Flay- do it. Stick it to the man.

[gorckat]

Absolutely trolltastic.

[gorckat]

My general work attire is a tie and suspenders, so I am also dapper as shit.

[gorckat]

Vidge. It is totally vidge.

Vig is said by people who don't give a fig about sensible colloquialisms.

At least, I think that's what you are referring to.

[gorckat]

I don't think I've ever been a vig, except maybe as part of a JOAT.

But I would totally azwolg or policy vig N0 if roflcopter was in the game.

[gorckat]

Yeah- the tear thing was lost on me at first, and then I saw it was an avvy reference.

I decided to let it sit for a minute because titles are the will of the community, but it really doesn't move me and feels forced.

[gorckat]

Hmm... skipped around for a catch phrase or something...I dont really remember anything specific he always said.

"The top 10 looks like this..."

"Keep your feet on the ground"

The voice of Shaggy

(waaaaaay subtle)

ADD: Ah- wiki has this: Kasem's signature sign-off is: "Keep your feet on the ground and keep reaching for the stars." but it's a little long on the whole.

[gorckat]

To me, Chevre is like the innocent little kid who can take a punch and roll with it. He doesn't let anyone truly get him down (or at least he doesn't show it) despite the undeserved flak he gets.

Gavroche

?

Nah, not actually that good.

One-hit Wonder

[gorckat]

VH1 had (or has?) a ton of ranking shows like best 1-hit wonders, scandals, concerts, songs, etc.

[gorckat]

The Next Big Thing

[gorckat]

Speaks with a list

And the award goes to...

[gorckat]

You're tho thilly, you thweet muthroom...meet me in the speatheathy sweethy.

Or something.

Now it's time for Mike Tyson nightmares...

[gorckat]

Or just Kasem (so it looks like Chevre Kasem).

[gorckat]

Wow...kinda surprised to see three strong positions on a single title. Usually they're either swamped in or out.

[gorckat]

Chart Topper?

[gorckat]

For some reason, I wanna make some kind of Zsa Zsa Gabor reference for you.

[gorckat]

eeeh that does not really fit.

Oh yes it does

[gorckat]

nth Dr Feelgood

W/ o w/o a .

[gorckat]

I think Buttons should give himself a new meta title every week. He can start with these:

This could be under your name
I <3 power abuse
Title goes here
This is a title
U jelly?
I see untitled people

[gorckat]

If we're talking sins, then Lust it is. Unless he over-indugles and we shoot for Gluttony.


Or:

Not just a sinner

[gorckat]

It kinda works both for the one-off April Fool's joke and I know (think?) he does some behind the scenes stuff like the splash page (was his, right?) and the ranking thing he's always on about.

[gorckat]

If his title were Admin red, that would be superb, as well.

[gorckat]

You'll end up like the Jimmy Carter of Title Fairies.

It was peaceful and everyone will say you didn't do shit.

Fucking peanut picker.

[gorckat]

Yeah, that title has been kicked around a lot.

And denied like a baby daddy on Maury.

[gorckat]

Say cheese.

[gorckat]

Czard

(I couldn't help myself.)

[gorckat]

quadz:

Man of the People

for winning the goofy popularity poll in SE.

[gorckat]

List Topper ?

List Mod nod and poll topping combo.

[gorckat]

Meh. Hydrated ftw.

[gorckat]

Polycephalist?
Polycephologist?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polycephaly

The article suggests other possibilities such as Chimera and Orochi (if Mara has any affections for Japanese culture/myth).

Chimera is kind of cool.

[gorckat]

It would be the Buttoned Up policy.

[gorckat]

Buttons is such a hardass.

[gorckat]

Frothy!

[gorckat]

notscience: That's not a hammer

Used the phrase here in a Day2 deadline lynch runup and was then victimized by Jake's LYLO unvote that her attempted hammer FTW crossed with here.

ADD: I forget if it is 3 or 6 months on-site for a nom. notsci is at ~5. Also, while unotes catching hammers like this aren't original, in this age of pre-post edits/reviews, I don't recall any.

[gorckat]

Dammit- why couldn't Jake have been a Neighbor?

[gorckat]

mafSepia rules in the same hard fashion that the Tunnel Snakes rule.

[gorckat]

But I'm mostly on a Mobil device.

Jake plays mafia on a fucking gas pump?

That's some high octane dedication!

[gorckat]

You Exxon drinking tiger lover!

[gorckat]

Clearly the title for N is "th".

[gorckat]

Can we plz just get rid of this emoticon forever.

With AdBlock you can.
