Title Fairy: Abuse of Mooglepower!

Sorry MoI, I don't like your suggestion, because I'm hardwired to disagree with Charlie perpetually.

I do agree with identity crisis, though.

Attention: DemonHybrid is a cultured and informed gentleman, and has very good taste.

(Unfortunately, he now has to disagree with that statement by default. Bloody shame.)

I don't get it. Is it intentional that MoI's suggestion makes no grammatical sense? Because other than that, I can't find out what's supposed to be funny about it.

Although I do think Identity Crisis is the best of the rest.
This is the best. By far.

WTF are you talking about? "Celtic" is an Irish stereotype?

No. Accent-related jokes translate horribly to the written word. It's an in-joke that would only be understood by half the posters here who just happened to have heard his voice.

Dear god, RC. Just. Stop. Posting.

Misaken on this Account is... too wordy. It doesn't roll off the tongue like a title should, IMO. What about

Mystery Man

? Or (at the risk of being difficult to explain)

Connery

. The accent + James Bond, who has many identities.

ReaperCharlie · Post Post #234 (ISO) » Thu Apr 07, 2011 1:30 pm

No.

To both paragraphs.

What do you guys not get, the must have, or the Irish accent?

You read mafiascum out loud, quadz?

Not often.

Maybe

should I be here?

Double meaning:

References mistakenly posting with his main instead of his alt
References faraday's occasional drunkposting

Also, it's the funniest title if he does this again, e.g: Game with gaggle of geese, accidentially posts with Faraday, someone quotes his title and responds "NO."

2nd should I be here?

Truly a good title. Made me laugh, unlike the others.

I'm bad at this too.

It’s a take-off on the old phrase ‘mistaken on all accounts’, which means the person is dead wrong. As has been discussed Faraday has, especially of late, been known to botch posting in a Alt. Thus he’s mistaken for posting on this account (the Faraday account).

This post by Gandalf does signify that it’s probably too subtle for some of the MS audience to get …

Glad to see your view is based logically on the merits and humor of the suggestion.

Oh wait, nevermind …

this suggestion. Good handle on the scope of what is being conveyed and is funny to boot. I prefer this to Identity Crisis.

Yeah, that's too subtle.

Eh, I like Identity Crisis better. I don't like should I be here.

That was more of an insult towards RC and less of a dislike of your suggestion. That being said, hito hit it out of the park with his suggestion =(

I found yours interesting and it sounded good, but it just barely fell short to identity crisis until hito posted.
