It's just that name generators are so much fun...

They just are! Smurf name generators, Mafia name generators, anagram generators, palindrome generators, et al. They're kind of like the modern day version of toy vending machines: put in a quarter & get a really cool useless ring. Or MASH: live in Seattle with 45 kids and a hot pink Oscar Meyer Wienermobile. So here's my new favorite generator--"the Amazing and Incredible, Only-slightly-Laughable, Politically Unassailable, PoMo English Title Generator"--via the lovely Gwenda--that'll take a listing from any old lit syllabus & turn it into a (delightfully erudite & mostly incomprehensible) paper title. I was guilty of some pretty awful ones back in college (ahem, Psychic Wounds: Facing the Inchoate Dialectic)--but doesn't the MGM here-we-go nature of the paper title itself invite some indulgence? Or promise some? Anyhow, try this generator. It's fun & doesn't slack...My favorite w/Jude the Obsure was "Deaf Borders and the Serialization of Theoretical Promiscuities in Thomas Hardy's Jude the Obscure"...
