Sometimes I use all caps

I'll put the name of my blog, which is my username, for any posts from said blog, just for full-transparency of what you're about to click on.

Snide comments happen sometimes

Or I'll just full on turn into an asshole

I like changes to titles. As minimum mentioned and you touched on, that bias can help start a discussion. Or you don't have to change the title and just put your own opinion in the description, since I make sure to check that before I open a link anyways, to see what I'm getting into.

I like how kleinbl00 posts an excerpt from a link he posts, too.
