    Default 'Closing This Thread With Mistaken Information In The Title'

    Now THAT'S classic. You would have to close every one of T.A's threads.

    I'm sure Evince doesn't mind, but the truth is it was a Republican who happened to vote for Hillary.

    As thousands upon thousands did in '16.

    I just got a good chuckle out of the reason for closing the thread.

    So basically you're laughing at the cognitive dissonance and/or hypocrisy when it comes to misleading thread titles.

    I am with you.

    It's a duplicate of an earlier thread on the same topic anyway.

    How many times do we beat T.A Gardner over the head with his thread titles?

    By now you've found it. I wasn't active in that one, as the discussion already took place in another thread. I just noticed it was locked, and just had to see what happened.

    Thanks. Also saw the link and looked at it. How odd. I told one of my daughters about this place a couple of weeks ago. She took at look at the posts visible to a casual visitor (apparently you have to be logged in to see the War Zone stuff) and said that it looked awful and had a lot of whackjobs. Pretty much sums it up, eh? I wonder how many ppl find it during a Google search, take a look, and never return.

    There is a time limit to editing your OP and your title. Once you're past that time limit, you can ask a mod to alter it.

    Perhaps Evince will learn his lesson?

    Will Damocles learn his own hypocrisy?

    I've seen those requests before. Truthfully, some nutter already posted that story
