Dance of the Title Fairy: Pale Moonlight Edition

[SleepyKrew]

^ That is a pretty gross oversimplification of what is going on here.

I was speaking generally.

[Iecerint]

Psyche thinks the title glorifies something that departs from the values of the community.

I think he is conflating the objectionable associations of the title with other things.

[BROseidon]

My biggest objection to "Shade Brigade" is that AP could have chosen "Shady Lady" or "All T all shade."

[BROseidon]

You guys have no idea how long I spent looking for that gif.

[Iecerint]

T*

[BROseidon]

I think both are acceptable?

[Psyche]

i think every post ap made in the last page was objectively wrong :]

[Iecerint]

I think both are acceptable?

When I was first introduced to it (I think maybe through drag race? I don't know real humans who say it really. maybe some youtube video), I heard that while the "tea" homonym is part of the joke re: "spilling," the original spelling was explicitly T prior to people re-interpreting the spoken version as "tea" as it kinda caught on around the country. The context was that some young gay didn't know that and was ostracized from the wizened gays who were 25 or whatever.

It was also supposed to stand for "truth," but urbandictionary offers basically any other plausible "t" noun as its referent.

Anyway, I now can't find any evidence for that on the internet, and history belongs to the victor.

[BROseidon]

It's definitely short for truth.

The problem with T is that it also means parTy >.>

[Psyche]

just give him the title skrew

[Oversoul]

But guys more importantly
Cheery has Kayak again

[Oversoul]

Psyche, I don't get why you think giving Shade is necessarily being a dick. Sure, it has some negative connotations, but I don't get objectively why the title should be off the table. I feel like you're getting offended for Bro.

[AngryPidgeon]

"All T all shade."

Ha!

[AngryPidgeon]

But guys more importantly
Cheery has Kayak again

(mutiny)

[BROseidon]

Fuck my entire response to this was to read AP for not picking the best name option.

[BROseidon]

And then post a gif from the library is open mini challenge on rpdr

Shea and TSO put me up to it.

[SleepyKrew]

I think I like it.
48 hours etc

But guys more importantly

I don't know what's up with this, but I'm removing it again.

~MOD DRAMA~

I made a decision and didn't stick to it but then I made another decision and I fully intent to stick to that one.
So no, it wasn't me.
(unless Psyche is right)
