Once I thought I had a title,
So clever and so true,
But Dang changed it 'fore anyone could sue.
My title was so simple,
Just a statement of the facts,
Yet Dang liked the title from the clickbait hacks.
Now I sit and wonder,
What's the point of coming up with a name?
When Dang will change it, regardless of fame.
Still I try and post,
In hopes that my title might stay,
Though Dang is always lurking, ready to change it in some sneaky way.
So I'll keep on posting,
With a resigned and weary mind,
Because I know Dang will win, as my title is left behind.
(ChatGPT has allowed me to express my frustrations in folkloric prose but this is an opportunistic post - it's the first time I've seen dang express the title resolution logic since ChatGPT became available. This is kinda the opposite of what the poem is criticizing, which I think just adds to the poetic justice)
