OK, folks, can we give up the tag wars... or at least make them amusing.
I saw a tag on one of Bi-Polar Bear's threads that read "Bi-Polar Low Iq." In addition to not describing the thread, it has no rhythm. Couldn't you use "Bi-Polar Bore" or something, so that it was at least clever?
@DrewDad,
How about Drewpy Dad to tag Rex's Penis thread?
@DrewDad,
I think we just need to give up on them.
I really hate tags.....and I hate these tag wars even more.
@DrewDad,
Some of these tags are really cracking me up though. I just about spewed my coffee when I first saw the "tiny penis" tags on CJ's threads. And just when I got bored with that, along comes a "martians have landed" tag. I just don't have that kind of creativity. All my tags are too functional. I need to broaden my tagging horizons.

I find them (mostly) useful. As a guide as to what particular threads are actually about. Sometimes you can't tell from the thread title.
and however much they may piss cj off, they do in fact give us a pretty good idea of what his threads are about.
I thought some of the "nuisance" tags were pretty funny. They made me laugh. But the new A2K "style makeover" should inspire us to be more "professional".
@wandeljw,
Since the "makeover" allows for the crudest form of language, I somehow am at a loss to see how it has become professional.
@Intrepid,
I meant the more recent makeover which gave us a new "look". I am being somewhat serious, somewhat facetious.
My sincere congratulations and thanx to whoever put the "A2K navel gazing" tag on this thread. (Wasn't me, btw.)
I think it's freaking hilarious.
I love how threads, this one for example, seem to require fifteen conjugations of the same word.
Though I realize one of you is trying to protect the thread from rogue tags like the one I just tried to post: "tags r for fags."

That would be me. I pre-emptively spiked the tag-warriors' guns by entering five tags....
@DrewDad,
I do that all the time, DrewDad. Only way to protect yourself from trolls is to load your topic with tags.

Precisely what
métier is that you would profess which entailed the idle posting at this site which we all practice?
I profess the hilarity i experience reading the allegedly serious posts of the right-wingnuts.

I wasn't being entirely serious. Sometimes I fancy that we are practicing some type of journalism. (It makes me feel more significant.)
Ooooh. He left it wide open ... who's gonna tag Edgars Whizzenator thread?
Seen on a cjhsa thread: I Am A Racist Eunuch.
@DrewDad,
Wonderful! We can make this thread a "Tags We Wish We Wrote".
