Because this thread seems, sadly, devoid of examples (when there are plenty), I wanted to point out one that's active right now. The front page's #2 link at the moment (http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5144325 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5144325) is currently titled "Cache Rules Everything Around Me". That's better than the article's actual title, "Cache Money Hoes". I suspect that if the article's original title were used, far fewer people would have bothered to check it out, to have learned from it, to upvote it, or to comment in the thread about it. I don't know if an editor will change it to the original title, but I certainly hope they leave it alone.
