Poll: Would you really rule the world?

[asinann]

I'd rule the world, not for very long because I have OCD and when I see shiny red buttons that say "nuke the world" I have to press them.

 

[Booze Zombie]

Yes and I would have my scientists build me mindlessly loyal robots.

 

[Animated Rope]

Sure

It's not like I would have to make every decicion myself. I could just let politicians/experts do their thing as they do now, except I could veto anything I didn't like.

Pretty much the same idea I got.

 

[Lexodus]

Of course I would.
The world be would be such an awesome place if I was in charge.

It'd be better if I was in charge.

Yes. Think of it: No wars, reduced crime, free and better schooling...
And all for the small price of obeying my every command and being executed if you do not.

Hell yeah, when do you run for office?

"Running for office" implies there is a chance I will lose.
I think you mean, "When do you plan to topple the major governments and establish a world government under your rule?"

I used 'running for office' as it implies that there is a chance the whole thing isn't totally orchestrated, even though we know for a fact that it is. This seems to make the peasants think that they can get their way, which, in turn, means they don't question you, and you get to save energy from provoked slaughter (rather than slaughter on your own terms)...

But, if you want, I shall use your question. So... when do you plan to topple the major governments and establish a world government under your rule?

 

[Andalusa]

I'd say we should have a vote, but people would probably just go for you.
Anyway, would you give out free kittens?

 

[Summerstorm]

Hm, i can't make it any worse, or can i? Even if i lose control i can still get me an island and retire... worth a try... (And i am a horrible leader... more the mentor-type)

 

[twistedshadows]

No, I wouldn't want to rule the world. I would most likely die in some sort of horrible way, as the general masses always want to kill leaders.

Yes. Think of it: No wars, reduced crime, free and better schooling...
And all for the small price of obeying my every command and being executed if you do not.

I somehow don't believe you. Maybe it's the "Reaper" part of your username or possibly your confessed joy in making people suffer.

I dunno about that.
You're probably fairly well-known too.

And you have the added advantage of being a lady.
That'd probably get you the "desperate guy" votes.

It'll be close.
And no. I'll hoard them for my own benefit.

Listen, suffering is hilarious. If you don't think so, you have no place in my new world order.

But, if you want, I shall use your question. So... when do you plan to topple the major governments and establish a world government under your rule?

I'm thinking Thursday.
Thursday is nice.

Can you make it Friday? I have a GCSE on Thursday Afternoon...

And no. I'll hoard them for my own benefit. It might be close, but I reckon you'd win.
Plus, if it's overthrowing the government you're planning, it's whoever gets there first.

Kittens [http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_y8qhm316y84/Re6YULDt7II/AAAAAAAAATE/dY0rvtZmfEM/s400/4-kittens.jpg] need sunlight, they could have their own little paddock where the public could view them and seethe with envy.

Regardless of whether suffering is hilarious or not, I doubt you'll be able to establish some of the things you promised if you're running the world while promoting it, especially "reduced crime."

Sigh...
I suppose.

Regardless of whether suffering is hilarious or not, I doubt you'll be able to establish some of the things you promised if you're running the world while promoting it, especially "reduced crime."

Crime will be reduced.
The suffering of those who continue to commit crimes will be legendary.

It might be close, but I reckon you'd win.

Maybe. Maybe not.
Awhhhhsss.

Have I appointed you Minister of Kittenly Affairs lately?

Thank you, o great Reaper.

 

[Andalusa]

Maybe. Maybe not.
Awhhhhsss.

Have I appointed you Minister of Kittenly Affairs lately?

You have, quite a while back actually.

 

[Andalusa]

Yeah, but not lately.

Oh, well thank you for reminding me where I stand, or sit.

Also, I get first dibs on front row seats for this "government toppling". Sounds like fun.

 

[Pseudonym2]

Reminds me of Diogenes of Sinope. I'd rather be out in the sun that rule the world.
