The Lower East Side Librarian Library of Congress Subject Headings of the month for Month 1, January 16, 2012 are (the stuff I'm pissed about is at the bottom, so scroll down if you're impatient):

450 UF Activism, Consumer
450 UF Consumer activism
450 UF Movements, Consumer

I kind of want to mock this heading, though it does bring to mind the cacerolazo protests in South America.
150 Dwellings in motion pictures [Not Subd Geog] [sp2011005504]
550 BT Motion pictures
What century is this?!?

450 UF Epistemic modal logic
450 UF Knowledge, Logic of
450 UF Logic of knowledge
450 UF Modal logic, Epistemic

I bet they only accepted this one because they didn't want to look like they didn't know what it means (either).
150 Heritage language speakers [May Subd Geog] [sp2011005381]
450 UF Heritage language learners
450 UF Heritage speakers
550 BT Persons
680 Here are entered works on persons who understand a language other than the dominant language of their communities due to their having heard it spoken in the home.
I like the idea of this heading, but the language brings to mind disingenuous phrases like "empowerment zone." Also includes the helpful Broader Term "Persons." Native speakers of non-dominant languages are people, too, yo.
150 Prosecco (Wine) [May Subd Geog] [sp2011005615]
550 BT Sparkling wines
I dedicate this heading to LBG.
Not the slightest bit narrow or specialized:

150 Milk--Religious aspects--Buddhism, [Christianity, etc.] [sp2011005444]
150 Peromyscus maniculatus [May Subd Geog] [sp 85100017 ]
