2. El Exijente was always my favorite.
Or "El Mirador," meaning "he who watches," derived as it is from the root word for "watchtower."

It's gotta be something Spanish to give it that special bit of panache.

28. Hey, hey, I thought you were looking for good names, not validation.
But, my dear, if it's PMS at work, I'll be more than happy (really, I mean it!!) to agree that your choices are the best ones that could have possibly been produced, even by a cabal of the most intellectual minds on the planet.

But you out-thought them all, and that should make you happy, or at least get the cramps to back off a bit.

Feel a little better now? I do hope so.

32. Thank you. I knew you would see it my way if only I cried and
whined about it long and hard enough :)

33. Well, I may be unmatched in obliviousness, but a bit of the world
does sneak through now and again, especially if you talk to me slowly and in words of one syllable or fewer.

I'd offer you Mrs R's prescription for PMS/Cramps, but you might not have the means available to fill the Rx.

For now, you'll just have to live with my good wishes, worthless though they are.

Hang in there, kiddo.

To pictures of Santorum photoshopped to look like Betsy Ross.

8. No more so than "lord god, emperor, ruler of the universe, sir"
which, in all honesty, I think, has a bit of zing to it that "He Who Is" just doesn't quite have. But, that's a personal preference, of course.

17. Der Fuhrer
Given the things they say about him in certain other places, he might as well go for it.

Or

Hades, Lord of the Underground

Or

He Who Must Be Obeyed

And he really ought to use "No sex please, I'm Skinner" as his sig.

Khash.

18. How about a Byzantine title? They're cool, and under-used:
like "Autocrator" (meaning emperor)
or "Sebastos" (meaning majesty)
or my favorite, "Sebastocrator" (an actually-used combination of the first two.)

All hail Sebastocrator Skinner!

How's THAT, Skinner? B-)
