YWS Statuses that could work as a NaPo Thread Title...



We search for them throughout the year and then in the month of April we celebrate them; that's right I'm talking about NaPo thread titles!

NaPo thread titles (at least in the last few years) are almost entire poems in themselves - usually they've got a little drama, intrigue, imagery, and occasionally metaphor or alliteration. If you see a YWS Status that you just can't help but think it'd make a beautiful NaPo thread title post it below - feel free to quote yourself too.

Examples of NaPo Titles can be found here

Here's the code for quoting someone:

Code: Select all
[quote="@lliyah"]Here's the code for quoting someone:[/quote]



// side note: this is not meant to be a place to make fun of people so let's keep it light hearted, if someone posts something like "my heart is broken" or "I'm having a bad day" or something similarly emotional that would certainly make a dramatic napo title, but maybe don't use that here unless it's your own status. :]
you should know i am a time traveler &
there is no season as achingly temporary as now
but i have promised to return

I love you as certain dark things are to be loved,
in secret, between the shadow and the soul.

^^ @mothbroth that is 100% one of the statuses that made me need to make this thread. :D the napo vibes are very strong.

Okay I've actually seen quite a few statuses recently that I think feel like they have *napo thread vibes* so posting a few more below to get us started...

@ChieRynn wrote:it aint trail coffee if it doesn't look and taste like used motor oil


Love a good coffee as a metaphor for life or ... motor oil poem. :]

@shatteredstones wrote:Peanut butter sandwich at 2am


The best poetry is written at 2am and also the best peanut butter sandwiches made; there's also a strong tradition of napo threads with "2 am" in the name.

AceassinOfTheMoon wrote:I made myself a mushroom hat


this speaks for itself.

QueenMadrose wrote:Art doesn't have to be intentional.


ohlala philosophy of art~

Dossereana wrote:Trying to get some more writing done while I eat my M&M'S

^ absolute napo vibes with this one.

@Liminality those are great! "Somehow soul-bonded to iambic pentameter" has a nice ring to it I think!

More NaPo Title Potential from your local People Tab ~

@LadyMysterio wrote:I walked into the mall yesterday for work to see Christmas trees and lights hanging from the ceiling


^ I like this image ~ and holiday poetry is holly jolly <3

@Shady wrote:took 57 steps today (so far) exclusively to get string cheese from the fridge


^ oddly specific numbers? perfect for a napo title! I would definitely read a napo with this title. could keep the napo title to just "took 57 steps today (so far)" but the string cheese part is also so good.

@ChieRynn wrote:a podcast on cryptids while driving home through the woods


^ this status is quite the vibe! Also we've seen a few napos on myths / princesses / fairytales etc. but one on cryptids?? haven't seen it yet, but would love to!

@FireEyes wrote:My love language is all of them. They say the type of love you want is the one you give. Give me all the love.


^ I actually thought this whole status from Fire was rather thoughtful & poetic and each sentence in it could be its own title. This one has high potential of alliyah stealing something there and making it a poem.

Just imagine the content of this napo. Also the answer is yes.

I think the best thing about making it into the quote generator is when nobody tells you, so one day you're just scrolling and voila, some phenomenally inane thing that crawled out of your dying synapses and immediately regretted being born the second it made contact with the air has been archived for all time. Or worse, a remark of only average inanity. Never tell me when you've put me in the generator. Pride-tinged regret just doesn't taste the same without the spice of surprise.
