Confusing thread title causes bedlam in Lounge!
An ambiguous title to a thread started a disturbance regarding the possible closing of the Barnes and Noble eBook store. The confusion turned to chaos when the thread was moved to the Lounge. Posts quickly turned ugly. Angry retorts swiftly escalated into name-calling and then physical violence. Riot police were sent in to quell the hostilities. Asparagus spears started flying in all directions. Film at 11! |

You know, practical jokes seem to be funny to everyone except the one who the joke is played on. When you jerk the chair from under someone and they bust their butt, they usually don't find it funny.

I don't see this as a joke on anyone. B&N doesn't have an ebook store to close. If anything, the joke is on B&N, for closing the store they are about to reopen.
