The trigger lables are unnecessary and are becoming pointless. I can see the point in them when they crossover, for example, an ED post containing something about abuse. That's fine. But everyone should know by the title of the forum that it will be triggering for that subject. You're not stupid.

And -Choley, that is when it starts getting completely ridiculous. What does that person do if they're out shopping and see the word razor? Break down and cry?

*headdesk*

Yes! Exactly!
