Well, the subject line "Cute Parrot" doesn't really fit, now, does it?

[HansV]

Huh?

[Rudi]

I think the "cute cat" got hold of that parrot and licked him all over....

Sounds Puuurfectly reasonable to me. At those prices - call it what you want.

[ChrisGreaves]

Huh?

Well, let's be honest now.
If I'd made the subject line "Mangy West Australian Parrot not really worth looking at", would you have opened the post?

[HansV]

Yes, of course!

[ChrisGreaves]

Yes, of course!

Right! See! You have gained some knowledge.
Next time you see a subject line "Cute Cat", especially in Eileen's Lounge, you know that there's a chance that it won't be anything to do with a cute cat (unless the manginess of the parrot is a direct result of an assault on a cute parrot by a jealous mangy cat) but that there's a probability, no matter how small, that it might be related to something else.
Quantum Subject lines, for example!

Well, let's see what I caught, eh?

You certainly caught my attention, even though it was under false pretenses.
