I need a name for my new extreme opinions blog.
I am making a new blog wherein I rant and rave espousing my (extreme) opinions - totally self-indulgent but hopefully thought-provoking as well. I just can't really think of a good name. Does anyone have any ideas?
I love blogging and I have two other blogs. ("our love is amazing" and "yonder comes my honeybabe") I want a good title that doesn't sound like anything else.
thanks@!

It tells you what it is, and it don't fuck around.

Maybe you should tell us more about your opinions and how you feel about them. Do you take them seriously or do you think they may be wrong (the call for sarcastic names indicates you don't).
Also, kind of gross but "Universal Orifice" as in, what you would use to talk shit. :P

"You can't be too dumb enough to think I'm Wrong."
"Let me insult your intelligence."
"If it's not obvious that I'm right, then you need to think harder."

Response by poster: wow thank you all for the plethora of excellent suggestions.
yeah I was thinking of calling it "extreme opinions" but thought i might try for something more exciting.
@delmoi - my opinions are extreme and sometimes controversial but also well-thought-through (in my opinion) in that i can back them up with lots of reasons, but i also dont take myself too seriously so I dont want the vibe to be too heavy. I love having light-hearted but intense arguments about things. I like to engage in that way... that's what the blog is for.
I plan to write a lot about the things I think are bullshit... for example diamonds and juice and soundtracks in movies. I also plan to rant about how much I love: Dan Savage (an extremely opinionated voice) and feminist country music and cryptic crosswords. to give you some idea.

As in, someone asks about it, and you can say "My Blog? 'That's where you're wrong.'"

Actually, that one is RadioShack. I am Jack's burning chagrin.
Home Depot would be more like this: "You can do it. I can tell you how wrong you are."
