    How about something indicative of a collection of miscellaneous conversations or writings -

    odds and ends
    miscellany
    etcetera
    bits and bobs
    potpourri
    gallimaufry

    Personally I think we shouldn't use five-dollar words where a fifty cent word will do. I'd prefer something like 'etcetera'.

    Gallimaufry sounds nice. Might lead to the addition of a verb like "google" to the dictionary.

    I would prefer to continue with the embarrassment and propose - "Lol of the Chins".
    Those are oozy and funky names! Love them.

    Bingodzilla! (is that fungible for a five-dollar bill?)
    I was thinking on the same lines to keep it simple and English and inclusive of all tastes and not relegate to any niche twang. Few more names ...

    (1) My two cents — aftermath of the main discussions.
    (2) Wit and Witter — play on dumb and dumber.
    (3) And thereby hangs a tail — pun on Shakespeare's original expression "and thereby hangs a tale" said to someone when what they have asked about involves a long explanation. Isn't that what Pensee is about, the burpy dissection of the posts.

    Wobbly knees! Decaying brain! Diminishing sight!
    Girl, you don't know how we oldies struggle to catch up with you hip generation.

    Cim's threads are like that Closet Land. Only two characters talk in her thread, tops.
    (Now she is used to pretend that her shadow is one of them)
