By no means was that intended as a critique of Dr. Price--it's just a thread that I'd prefer not to see.

"...." "Don't you hate (insert ethnicity, religion, etc.)"
Edit: first line made more... derogatory.
Edit: first line made less... present. Leaving it there just seems too much like saying a racist joke isn't racist because it's a joke. You're right that it would be a really bad thread title, though. --PJ

"Ender's Game movie: who should play Ender?"
Not that I don't want to see the movie (someday). But this topic has been beaten to death and arisen in new shambling zombie horrors over and over.

Sorry... I wasn't sure if there was a line. On that note, I think I'll break it some more...
"I <3 insert sociopath name here" "Starving children are hard-working children: the benefits of child abuse"
Really, I do not BELIEVE in any of my proposed thread titles, I do feel that they are are possible "worst thread titles"

"I don't really want to provoke anyone, but honestly, my life has been really lousy lately, and schools in Darfur need to have teachers and Iraqi soldiers and religious facism is totally gay but I mean that in the nicest possible way to all you homosexuals out there I'm not homophobic oh my god this is totally like whatever okay sorry for bothering you guys see you later bye!"
"What's up with <insert Hatrack user here>"
"Is this joke funny?"
":dude :cool :peekaboo"
"This thread is the best"
I know we have, or had, at least three of those.
"Hi everyone I'm new here and I haven't a clue what this website is about but I'm sure there's lots of partying but what the **** does OSC mean?"
"I found the meaning of life! It's in my closet!"
"Who is in charge of the ads here?"
Come to think of it, I might make a thread like that because the "DO NOT CLICK THIS UNLESS YOU ARE 18" ads are really annoying.
"DO NOT CLICK THIS UNLESS YOU ARE 18"
"Technologyism - everybody mocks my religion!"
Technologyism, by the way, is a fake religion a wiki contributor tried to advocate. He pretended to be an apprentice prophet that predicted an internet battle on the fourth moon after a day of four Wikipedia vandal attacks.
"How do I turn my computer on?"
<insert any of the following words in a casual sentence: religion, abortion, Microsoft, gay>
These key words will get a thread more attention than it likely deserves.
"Hi everyone! I'm Bill Gates and I'm willing to pay someone for a tour around this site!"
That one sickens me. It is the absolute worst thread title I can conceive. Though Javert's last idea is a close second.
