It's for posts about Interior bathroom Design and Decor. It's a separate Posting Topic, which you can see by clicking the "Topics" link up top.

Posting a vanity means that someone started a whole new thread that did not revolve around a news story. Often, a vanity will be a question to other FReepers or just a story or something like that. What you posted was a vanity...

It means that we, as Freepers, LOVE having someone sign up to post a completely irrelevant and purposeless post. It's what makes this board so good! Yay!

A vanity is when you do not post a news reference.

LOL! I asked the same question when I was new here (not that long ago) and got alternately clobbered and answered kindly.
So... as another newbie, I'll tell you what they told me: Vanities are posts that are about yourself and not really about the news, such as your opinions. And... this is the real kicker... they are highly disliked, frowned about, and can get you a good trashing!

I hope not. We don't need this on Election Day.
