My eldest received for her birthday a cookbook devoted solely to cupcakes. She was thrilled and immediately began plotting an obsessive compulsive new hobby, to with; baking complicated cupcakes. Since this is obviously not enough, she also planned a cupcaking blog. As she brainstormed a title she became increasingly frustrated and asked me, her father, a writer, for help. Doesn't she know you, you well may ask. She does, but sometimes her memory fails her. Herewith, a list of some of the titles I suggested:
-Genocide Cupcakes
-Cupcake Jihad
-Li'l Cups o' Hitler Cake
-Hate Crime Cupcakes
-A Fistful of Cupcakes
-Kick You in the Cupcakes
-Sucking Chest Wound Cupcakes

-Not For Consumption Cup Cakes
-I Wouldn't Put This in My Mouth Cupcakes
-Li'l Debbie's Headless Torso Cupcakes
-Hidden False Tooth Cupcakes
-Spoiled Dairy Products Cupcakes

-Ground Glass Cupcakes
-Serial Killer Brand Meaty Cupcakes
-Unending Vomiting Cupcakes
-Killed your Mom Cupcakes
-Test Your Will Cupcakes
-Unpleasant Cupcakes
-Kweazy Kupkakes
-Ebola Cupcakes
-Irritable Bowel Cupcakes
-Nazi, Nazi, Nazi Cupcakes
-Cupcakes for Morons

I'LL TAKE A DOZEN PLEASE!
Tadao on 07/07/2009 2:12 pm
Oh, do these (Obese Leering Registered Sex Offender Cupcakes) come in non registered?
Dimnos on 07/07/2009 2:21 pm
Do we get to vote?
Julio on 07/07/2009 2:57 pm
Given the young age of your daughter, perhaps A Fistful of Cupcakes will do fine. Otherwise Spoiled Dairy Products Cupcakes is a worthy second choice.
Great names overall, Max.
Dimnos on 07/07/2009 3:02 pm
I liked Kick you in the Cupcakes!
captain516 on 07/07/2009 4:03 pm
What about bacon-flavored tuna cupcakes?
Doctor_Who on 07/07/2009 4:07 pm
You forgot "Two Girls One Cupcakes".
In all seriousness, I would go with "Probably Cupcakes". It works on multiple levels.
stevetothepast on 07/07/2009 4:50 pm
I'd go with Cup-a-Soup-Cakes.
Nick on 07/07/2009 7:01 pm
Probably Cupcakes is actually a pretty good name.
Aries on 07/07/2009 8:34 pm
KKKupcakes!
Starscream on 07/07/2009 8:45 pm
Probably cupcakes is such a good name that I'm already seeing Martha Stewart parking her Helicopter on the lawn of the Burbank home just to cut your daughter a check.. Give her hell in the negotiations Max, make sure you get blood (real blood, not just her money)..
In other news I can't get Puscakes out of my head, it was just that funny.
Amoriahs (Guest) on 07/07/2009 8:57 pm
Now, I love me some Max Burbank, but is it overkill to have the "Comics Worth Reading" link kick me over to Max's blog like some sort of Burbank Black Hole-slowing sucking in the rest of I-Mockery into it's cupcake-shaped maw?
Love you guys!
Aries on 07/07/2009 9:02 pm
I noticed that too. Oops!
Tetsu Deinonychus on 07/07/2009 9:03 pm
Cupcake Jihad is my favourite choice. There's so much she can do with that.
Where would she be without a great father like you, Max?
Colonel Flagg on 07/07/2009 11:36 pm
I think we should put this to a vote.
For some reason, "Sucking Chest Wound Cupcakes" strikes a chord with me. (It would)
Jane M (Guest) on 07/08/2009 1:00 am
"Pupcakes" anyone?
Steve (Guest) on 07/08/2009 8:57 pm
"Fistful of Cupcakes" needs an image of Clint Eastwood holding a cupcake just to leave nothing to the imagination.
Mirkwood Lodge (Guest) on 07/08/2009 10:22 pm
Hoody Hoo! Sucking Chest Wound Cupcakes! I hope this is a KoDT reference. If not, then you suck.
DanniDoom on 07/08/2009 11:44 pm
How about Asbestos Cupcakes Can Get?
CptFiggs (Guest) on 07/09/2009 12:51 am
Sucking Chest Wound Cupcakes. I would buy ten. At a time. EVERY day.
TNT724 on 07/09/2009 2:32 am
I could also go for some Sucking Chest Wound Cupcakes. Or if they come into existence: Cupcakes of Catastrophe.
CaTlaloc on 07/12/2009 10:14 am
Oh Max, are you maybe being a little too hard on the the fruit of your loins? Perhaps you are just a little scarred that your progeny may be produce a better blog? Who doesnot LOVE cupcakes? Show the love Max.

When will your daughter get her first DWI?
Bizzaro Stormy (Guest) on 07/16/2009 9:35 am
"Probably Cupcakes". Fo' sho'.
The Unlicensed Avenger (Guest) on 07/19/2009 8:01 pm
I would suggest perhaps Ku Klux Cupcakes.
Matt (Guest) on 10/05/2011 2:33 pm
My vote is for Irritable Bowel Cupcakes. Brilliant. That's quite list you rifled off for her.
Frankly, I used to get uptight about blog titles, but not so much any more (I publish a few blogs). It's the content that matters and if it's good content, then name will brand in time.
I think it's cool your daughter is jumping into blogging. Blogging is the best job on the planet!!

A Nun with a javelin in her head walking through a revolving door cupcake blog. I think that rolls off the tongue.
