When Big Black released a couple of their EPs on CD, Steve Albini was so convinced that the CD format wouldn't survive that he named the release "The Rich Man's Eight-Track Tape."
I also like Yes's 90125, which was both the title of the album and its number in the Atlantic Records catalog.

Looking through this thread, it's amazing how many people think that the best album title ever is something a sexually frustrated 14 year-old boy would come up with.

Minus The Bear used to have pretty killer album titles: Highly Refined Pirates and They Make Beer Commercials Like This, for example. But I'm partial to the subtle hilarity of Menos El Oso.
Other awesome/hilarious titles:
David Cross - Shut Up, You Fucking Baby!
Modest Mouse - Good News For People Who Love Bad News
Jimi Hendrix - Electric Ladyland
NOFX - 45 or 46 Songs That Weren't Good Enough To Go On Our Other Records, Punk In Drublic
The Aquabats - The Return Of The Aquabats (awesome because it was their first album)
Flogging Molly - Drunken Lullabies

Seriously, my favorites are:
1. "When the Pawn hits the conflicts....." - Fiona Apple (the actual title runs 90 words of course. Call it pretentious, but its the first title that popped to mind when i saw this thread).
2. "Lets Go Bang" - Jennifer Love Hewitt - This was Jennifer Love's debut CD, I think. I actually have this. The font is in such a way that you will read it as "Lets go bang Jennifer love Hewitt" which I think is freakin' hilarious.

This is tough. I'll just write down some of my opinions I guess.
The Beach Boys: Pet Sounds
The Streets: The Hardest Way to Make an Easy Living
The Strokes: Is this It
Weezer: Pinkerton
Daft Punk: Discovery (as this was part of my introduction to electronic music, and is one of my favorite albums I can't think of a more fitting album title)
Just a few ideas.
