(Title Confusion)

When so many people get the name of a song wrong that it necessitates parentheses containing the song's mistaken name along with its ACTUAL name so people don't get frustrated when they can't find it. It can also occur if the title of the song is too verbose. (Again, this too can be caused by people getting the title wrong.)

(Title Confusion) has occurred many times in music. To name a few:

-Escape (The Pina Colada Song) by Rupert Holmes
-Rocket Man (I Think It's Gonna Be A Long, Long Time) by Elton John

-Bang A Gong (Get It On) by T. Rex*
-Movin' Out (Anthony's Song) by Billy Joel
-Operator (That's Not The Way It Feels) by Jim Croce

* "Bang a Gong" was originally called "Get It On," but it was later changed.

title humping

Reading the title of an article and becoming impassioned to share your already formed opinion of said article without actually reading said article.

Okay stop title humping and maybe read the article first.

Title Gandalf

A wise marketer that practices the art, science and wizardry of improving titles. A Title Gandalf is more experienced and wiser than a writer or wordsmith which simply strings words together. By seeing the potential of a piece of content, a Title Gandalf will step in to improve upon a title so readers will bite and be let down when they start reading what the wordsmith has strung together.

Writer: Can I get final approval on this content?
Title Gandalf: The text is looking good. But I'm sorry, but that title simply shall not pass.

Title IX Rizz

When your friend's rizz is so bad that it could potentially incite a Title IX violation.

Chandler: "This girl in my class is pretty cute but I haven't spoken a single word to her yet. We follow each other on Instagram though."
Nick: "Well that's a start -- at least she follows you back"
Chandler: "Yeah, there's just a small problem."
Nick: "What?"
Chandler: "I accidentally liked one of her old posts."
Nick: "You're cooked bro -- that's some Title IX Rizz."

Nope, maybe it was the title length? Like if I make a super long title it somehow makes the site think that there is a problem with the server and it stops the post from going through... Ok. I'll do that now. Super-long title no justsu!!!

Maybe Urban Dictionary is like a woman, except, in reverse...
