HN has a max length of 80 for the headline. Yes, AFAICS the "-lish" would have fit, but not both that and the "esae". Presumably OP shortened down from the error "Over 80!"and just didn't happen to notice that they could have got away with shortening a smidgheon less.

Please try to unbunch your pantaloons.

You already got used to them from the headline, so by then it's no problem. ;-)
