    Default Purple Monkey Dishwasher

    Is this a new trend that topic titles have nothing to do with the topic?
    It's come to my attention that several times have I entered a topic only to question my sanity:
    "How did I get here, I don't recall beef being on the menu."

    So why?
    Does it not seem more practical to tell an audience what to suspect?

    Hypothetically consider this:

    I want to write a topic about cats.
    Big cats, little cats, fluffy cats, shaved cats, cats up trees, cats eating bees... you get the point.
    So logically I suppose the best title for my topics would be... "Dogs!"

    Now the problem is such that instead of attracting people who love cats, I'm in fact luring dog lovers into a pit of dispair and dissapointment (shame on me!). Not to mention that people who love cats and hate dogs are consequently going to be like "WTF Dogs. Psh - too cool fo' that - meow."

    Plus it's annoying.

    I think I've made my point.
