The race car

glennmagusharvey

It's a gas-guzzling vehicle designed for going around in circles at breakneck (sometimes literally) speeds, and not much else.

is

glenn

breaking his own snowclone rule

There's already another snowclone about this?

Then again, i didn't actually check the "The race card." thread.  Maybe I should go do that.

MillerCross

no, what i meant is the part where there is an snowclone without much debate besides the punny title

^ One snowclone is allowed per original topic. If someone now went and made, say, "The lace car" (because apparently those exist), they'd probably be breaking the rules, or something. I dunno, I can't think of any _ace car(d) names that could even feasibly be used for puns.

Also, I favor more lax rules on snowclones, but I was overruled by the rest of my mod team. :P

Anyway, I think the current rule is that you can't make more than one snowclone thread.

Now if you want to make a thread whose title seems like a snowclone but is supposed to be a legit thread on its own, then it's probably advised you wait a bit, or make it really clear that it's not a snowclone.  I don't think this has ever happened for real yet.

(Note that forcing it to happen for real would constitute making a snowclone, albeit in the guise of something that's not a snowclone, so that would be against the rule anyway.)

@Everest: How about just "the ace card"? Friggin' aces, pretending to be high cards when they're really supposed to be ones...

I think this is the first time a thread of mine has gotten a snowclone.

More than one contentless snowclone thread. If it's a legitimate thread that happens to have a pun for a title, that's okay.

It could be a blackjack thread about face cards.
