pool #4091 ("Why not just fly?") strikes me as unworkably broad.

Maybe I'm overthinking the concept, but aren't there any number of situations in which characters could be flying instead of resorting to simpler modes of transportation?

I suppose you're right. too vague, considering even situations where a character saying "im tired of walking" could constitute "why not just fly?"
went ahead and deleted. was gonna cause too much confusion in the long run.

pool #3082 -- "# TODO"
A private pool for someone's translation backlog. Not that I don't sympathize, but to-do lists belong on your own computer.

This pool is still here, and some of the posts are even already translated, so it's not even being updated.

pool #4116, Defeating the purpose.
From the description, it sounds very similar to pool #2584, You're not helping!, but the images in the pool have me questioning why they are in it.

It seems like some of them fall under an idea of a character doing something but screwing up and defeating the purpose of the action in the first place i.e. sitting down to pee but not removing the underwear first, but... the description of the pool is just like the "You're not helping!" pool and a good chunk of the images contained in it don't seem to follow much of a theme.

I think you're overlooking some important aspects of pool #4125. The pool says it can be used for "Album cover art, CD label art, back cover art, sleeve art, you name it." The album_cover tag would only cover one portion of that. Furthermore the pool is designed to cover true existing albums, where the tag itself states that it can be used for both real and fake album covers.

The pool also says that it is supposed to be order by chronological release dates, which is something that would be impossible simply using tags.
