For the second go-round of repostings, I've learned to REALLY read the title of the reposted item before pushing the final "look stupid for seven days" button.
Apparently, when you repost an item where the title begins with a number (i.e. 54 mm, 1876, etc.), the words to the title past the number are sometimes dropped, although this also happened with one or two words-only titles.
Result, if you repost too fast, you end up with a stupid abbreviated nonsensical title to you item.
Seems to be a random thing, but if you're reposting lots of items quickly, you can look right past it and not even think (your brain just assumes everything was repeated correctly, especially the title).
