That would also be wildly inaccurate, and defeat the purpose of tagging things. The issue was one of minor inconvenience, since the script confused tags that aren’t used routinely on stories. When I see a tag that doesn’t fit, I look at the summary and I can tell where the script lifted the inaccurate tag. It’s not very difficult, and I haven’t gotten any emails from readers who were upset by the occasional unnecessary “Herm” or “Bi” tag.
On the other hand, if we add all tags to all stories, my inbox will overflow with hysterical emails from readers who want to know why we don’t publish stories without  [insert tag of your choice here] or from fetishists upset that the story didn’t contain [insert tag of your choice here].

So were my examples. I was actually wondering, for a brief time, if I’d need a form response to emails asking why we didn’t have stories featuring [fill in the blank]. I got as far as,
“Hi, I rather imagine we don’t have any stories featuring robotic kittens sodomizing dead mice in a tub of rancid Velveeta because there doesn’t really seem to be a high level of interest in that particular fetish, and in any event, let’s be realistic here—Velveeta can’t become rancid because it’s not really food in the first place. It’s barely organic.”
And then I decided I’d just wing it…

Yeah, there were a few tags that caused issues. Any mention of Hermione in a summary generated a “Herm” tag as well, if I remember that correctly. I fix what I catch as I sweep.

@BronxWench  That sounds like a challenge, not sure if I’m the right author up for that task!

well, it is partially accurate. ← (Desiderius Price tells me this is the face of sarcasm)

Sorry, forgot to add the   emoji to that last post, wasn’t serious about doing that!   It’d cause as much chaos as dropping a naked boy into an Amish market.

IIRC, that wasn’t a perfect program, so some had to be fixed.  I’ve since come to list *ALL* tags at the start of the story, so I would still be covered if this were to be repeated.

Too late. I already Googled it, and I’m now laughing. I also Googled “fabulous mini house for tarantula”. XD 

“And I’ll wear a nightie!” Because nothing says prepared for monster hunting like a negligee...

@GeorgeGlass I've had enough spiders in the middle of the night drop onto me to know they agree with you. 

Hey, using your cleavage as a snare is a perfectly valid spider-hunting technique.

Don’t google that, nothing good can come of it… like a horror movie, “Hey, I’ll go and checkout this strange noise in the basement, all by myself.”

I’m now tempted to Google “spider condo”. XD 

My spiders and I have come to an agreement. If they keep killing wasps, they can build a freaking spider condo on the porch for all I care.

Yeah we don't get venomous ones here. Just the pest eating kind. So I'll generally leave them alone or, if i have a way to transport them safely, I'll evict them. I've killed spiders before and felt guilty so I don't do that anymore.

I prefer spiders to literally everything they eat.

There’s one that keeps getting in the tub here. It’s pretty much reached the point that when I lay the towel over the side it doesn’t run away anymore, just scoots straight up the towel and away again. Then, a few days later, he’s stuck anew and the towel has to go back on the side.

“Man, what a day I had. In show and tell, this demon turned up. Brought in a one tonne Hellhound Pupper. It was still less of a disruption than Cadence McMahon and her ultra-rare Pokemon Go! find.”
“Oh my god! Are you serious? Which Pokemon did she have?”
