Thes Tag Lines Are Driving Me Crazy (VAnity)

Posted on 01/09/2003 5:56:00 AM PST by Puddleglum

The new "taglines" after people's usernames are really distracting to me. Is it the intense pressure to think up something too cute? Is it the odd little eye-pulling font that makes it less comfortable to read the article? I can't say for sure. It just doesn't seem to detract from the message board format, at least for me. Does anyone else think so? I love FR but find this new tagline thing a little annoying. Maybe Jim could give us the option to view or not view taglines as part of our user preferences.

But we still don't know how many licks it takes to get to the center of a tootsie pop.

Exactly what I was tinking. Sounds like a good tagline though. Teehee...

NOBODY expects the Spanish Inquisition! Our chief weapon is surprise...surprise and fear...fear and surprise.... Our two weapons are fear and surprise...and ruthless efficiency.... Our *three* weapons are fear, surprise, and ruthless efficiency...and an almost fanatical devotion to the Pope.... Our *four*...no... *Amongst* our weapons.... Amongst our weaponry...are such elements as fear, surprise....

Oh, Btw. The BRAAD Threads were fun too. ArGee started those. They didn't last long and were pulled by JimRob because it was decided that they might be misused.
(The potential was there and we all agreed with JimRob)
But, they were fun while they lasted.
I don't know if you saw it and if so, do you remember it?

I think you've started a classic thread.

Why thank you! I just woke up with no coffee and logged into FR and started seing these unfamiliar tag lines -- they kept distracting me and it ticked me off. Now that the day is ebbing and I've had lots of coffee and read lots of funny posts (and tag lines), the jury is out - way out!

The boy stood on the burning to fight for the right to tag... It makes me remember what the heck free speech is all about, darn it all!

"is belong to us"
Let's get it right.

Isn't someone going to explain how to add a tag line?

You should have talked to Arthur Mcgowan before you started complaining.

Ain't that the truth!

This was my first thought, I just didn't think of it first!

Good grief! What are y'all eating. I might have lost 20 pounds in a year, and that is practically torturing myself! And I need to lose at least another 35 or 40.

Oh fiddle dee dee! The ping list, the posting police, the spelling and grammer police and now the tag line. Can't you people just learn to get along. Read what you like, have debates at leisure and don't open threads you don't want to read. REMINDER: WE ARE ALL GROWN-UPS HERE.
