The amazing Title generator

I have found something wonderful:


The Amazing and Incredible, only-slightly laughable, Politically Unassailable, Po-Mo English Title Generator.


In short it does what it say - makes up random titles should you need one.
Let's test it by typing in for instance Tolkien:

1# The Symbolic Queering The Invader: JRR Tolkien, Lord of the Rings and Voices
2# The Semiotics of Supplement and the Progenitive in JRR Tolkien's Lord of the Rings
3# Subjectivity and Textuality in Lord of the Rings: JRR Tolkien Re-marking Male Madness
4# Deviant Dis-ease and the Degeneration of Aesthetic Response in JRR Tolkien's Lord of the Rings
5# Initiation as Self: Be-guiling Dialogic Subject in JRR Tolkien's Lord of the Rings


Or what about Harry Potter?

1# Naming, Interpolating, (Re)producing: Breath in JK Rowling and the Migratory Silence of Complicity in Harry Potter
2# The Depression of Capitalism and the Dialogic in JK Rowling's Harry Potter
3# Fetishing the Primal Madness in JK Rowling: Harry Potter and Womanhood
4# Speaking Intersection: Outraged Intolerance in JK Rowling's Harry Potter
5# Random Ethnocentrism and the Autobiography of Queer Alterity in JK Rowling's Harry Potter


I probably shouldn't find this so funny - but I do, I do!

I see that I'm going to have to change my thesis topic right away, so I can use this marvellous contraption! (Are you, by any chance, familiar with the postmodernism generator (http://www.elsewhere.org/pomo)?)

3# Fetishing the Primal Madness in JK Rowling: Harry Potter and Womanhood
It's funny because it's scarily accurate. I'm sure that there's a dissertation out there somewhere that fetishes Rowling's Primal Madness all over the place!

Oh, why wasn't this around whilst I was doing my senior thesis?

That's marvelous! I may use that for my MA stuff!
