Hmm, short and descriptive turns you off, hunh? I think coming up with a title is a LOT harder than writing the story. And what else are you going to call it? "Fun With Electrodes" would probably turn off more people than "Chantelle's Ordeal".

But you do have a good point -- just as certain story codes will steer a person toward or away from a story, so, too, can an unimaginative (or too-specific) title.
