Everyone thinks about it a some point, what would you do to show off your ridiculous, all-encompassing power if you were the ruler of Earth?

Me, I would get one person from each country (various ages) arrange them in height and put boards on their heads, I gots me a human staircase!

If i rule the world, i would put some sort of computer chip / bomb in everyone's head.

They shall be my finest warriors, these men who give of themselves to me.

Like clay I shall mould them, and in the furnace of war forge them.

They will be of iron will and steely muscle.

In great armour shall I clad them and with the mightiest guns will they be armed.

They will be untouched by plague or disease, no sickness will blight them.

They will have tactics, strategies and machines so that no foe can best them in battle.

And they shall know no fear.


I shall call them.....Spase Marienz

Well lets see, clone myself twenty times and go on a vast galactic conquest, only to be betrayed by one of my clones and wind up a rotting carcass on a gold recliner and eat people's souls.

Oh, and I would build a weapon capable of striking objects from space.

I would then proceed to round up all the pointless 'celebrities' that are a blight upon our culture (so thats anyone incapable of actually acting, famous for being famous, crap singers, poseur bands etc) and have them sent up into orbit, in individual cannisters, with the basic life support needed.

Following, I would, at my leisure, play a bizarre game of Celebrity Squares Bingo. All the players would have game cards with the faces of these vile cultural parasites, and would use their 'dobber' to mark them off as I blast them out of Orbit. First one to complete a card (referred to in Britain as a house) gets a prize and the glow of self satisfaction of helping rid our world of the more pointless swimmers in the Genepool. Additionally, certain 'Star Players' when destroyed, would win all Celebrity Squares Bingo players a £50 bonus. This would be saved for particularly toxic Gobshites, like Jade Goody, Paris Hilton, Simon Cowell and the Pope/any Religious leader that isn't the Dalai Llama (on account he is actually a sound bloke)

I dare anyone to come up with a greater abuse of power!

Indeed.

If you don't get the reference check out the vid below. The purchase a copy immediately!




Now if I ruled the world firstly I would make it the law that everyone must own a copy of Office Space.

Then I would have my palace staffed by

Kirstin Dunst, Carice Van Houten, Elizabeth Hurley, Gemma Arterton, Eva Green and Maggie Gylenahll all of whom must all do whatever bidding I command of them.

Then I shall set aside and island for all malcontents and people who annoy me. On this island shall be placed:

A) The entire editorial staff, writers contribers, owners and readership of the Daily Mail and Daily Express 'Newspapers'.

B) The Entire Cast of Eastenders, aside from Samantha Janus who can be added to my list of palace staff so I may act out those teenage thoughts I used to have whilst watching Game on in the 90's.

C) The French.

D) All fundamentalist religious types. Not the quiet ones that keep themselves to themselves but the ones who constantly take great pleasure in telling me I am wicked and hell bound because I do not subscribe to their world view.

E) The Jonas Brothers, Millus Cyrus and any other squeaky clean 'singers'.

My Air force will then use said island for bombing practice.

Next I shall build a giant laser and have my name carved into the surface of the moon Chairface Chippendale style.

The President of Iran and the Prime Minister of Israel shall fight to the death for my amusement. The winners may have the disputed territory. The losers shall forever wander the earth.

Finally all the scientist of the world will construct me a giant robotic body Iron Man style!

I would end world hunger. I would find all the selfish bastards who work to make their corners of the world a crap place to live for every one around them. All the tyrants who enrich themselves at the expense of the young, the poor, the workers.

I would do what every other tyrant in history did: enforce my will because I think it is right.

My world, you would reap what you sow, not what others sow. People would be properly remunerated for their efforts in cases where they are not. Places like Alang, India would be ruthlessly removed from the modern world.

Lazy bastards would have very thin lives. People willing to work would be rewarded in whatever currency they decided they valued most (money, larger family, large doses of narcotics).

It would take everything I have not to put together a List of people the world would be better without, and acting on it. Maybe I would. After all, not all gods are benevolent.

If I were the ruler of the world, I would have ensured three things before even getting there: 1. complete loyalty to me of all world leaders (since what's the point of being the ruler of the world if you cannot order people around?)
2. ensure that de-facto state leaders, and leaders of all anti-global government forces were infiltrated and destroyed, or made friendly somehow, and
3. promote world-wide campaigns of religious and ethnic tolerance, since ethnic tensions are always bound to flare up without it.

What I would then do are as follows:
construct giant laser, carve name in moon (as Chairface Chippendale did),
Three! chicks at the same time,
Terraforming projects on the moon, then maybe later to mars.
Work on ending world poverty as best as physically possible,
make gladiatorial islands in the south pacific with pleanty of monitors, make it the new worldwide sport.
See if mecha are actually feasible weapons of war, and implement them in the gladiatorial islands,
Create a P-1000 ratte tank just for fun,
replace all coal powered plants with nuclear power plants, preferrably CANDU-based plants which would use thorium rather than uranium, and later upgrade all these to fusion power plants, or just make them fusion power plants instead.
and destroy venus using all of the earths nuclear weapons, in order to get raw materials later. Always be pragmatic.

Then I would kill the Hero, the Rebel guy, the funny Kid, the Gentle Big guy and the Chick in a very quick and fail proof way with no forced weddings or evil plan speeches and and let the other rebels go to try again if they want.

And if I go for the inmortality arc probably I´ll get myself a vasectomy to avoid stupid evil daughters falling in love with the hero.

I would also set Geeks and Geneticists and Biologists and that working together so I can have a menagerie of no-longer-mythical creatures.

That would be cool.

If I was ruler of earth, wait that doesn't sound so good let's say "master of da Univerz" I would:

Make gaming a sport.
Give all companies who make games a trillion euros for each game they make which they MUST use to make newer better games.
Make wargaming a sport.
Give citadel miniatures 50 gazzilion euros for every miniature they make which MUST be used to make newer better models.
Burn everyone who says that wargaming is for nerts.
Burn everyone who says wargaming is the same as roleplaying games.
Collect the smartest people on earth and wire them in a machine which in turn is wired into my head, and transports all the things they know to my brain.
With this information I would make a giant ork army In which nobz play the role of gretchin, warbosses the role of boyz and even bigger orks the role of nobz and warbosses.
This army will ride giant dinosaurs which have gigantic guns attached to their bodies.
With this army I will declare war to the races of the Univerz who try to stop me.
My personal guard will be made of 500000000000 gazilion lizardmen with guns.
My personal guard and my ork army will have special chips in their heads with which they "google" all the new tactics from the internet.
All the orks and lizardmen who use this system to download porn will get a higher rank.

I would hole up in a secret, stockpiled, & well provisioned fortress.

Then, I would pull the plug on every government program.

I would then cut all public services/utilities and watch until mankind turns back into a self-sufficient, self-reliant, responsible for their own actions species able to live without luxuries.(Oh did I mention the hunter teams that will round up all of the lawyers for the gladitorial games)

Then and only then would I go forth to restore order. The strong that took control in their areas would become my distric govenors.

A truer form of capitalism would be established with coorporations and stock markets out-lawed.

The barter system will be a constitutional gaurantee.
Taxation will be a constitutionally mandated 10% of the gross earnings.

Each individual will be gaurranteed the right to do watever the heck they want with their bodies but if stupid about such that there will be no recourse to civil action or law-suits.(If your stupid and end up in a ditch somewhere because of your own stupidity, ya can't blame other people for it.)

Political parties and lobbyists will be out-lawed but everyone will have the right to free unregulated speech.(The right to pop someone in the mouth for exercising said right will be purely on a distict-state by district-state basis)

The governments job will be to prevent open warfare between the district-states. (Unless the Economy needs a boost.)

Guarantee personal freedom to do whatever the heck you want just as long as it doesn't infringe on anybody else right to do such.

To insure the right of the individual district-state to operate it's legal system as it sees fit without interference as long as it doesn't intefere with another distric-states right to do so.

Distric-states teaming up to unfairly bully another one economically will not be tollerated.

There will be an option for a scheduled, equally armed revolution every 50 years.


Repeat the first four items evry 200 years.

I'd actually push through cloning, that I might have an Angelina Jolie and a Milla Jovovich for every room in all my palaces.
But then you could never walk out of a room with Angelina on one arm and Milla on the other to impress your guests without getting a very awkward situation out of it.

And if I go for the inmortality arc probably I´ll get myself a vasectomy to avoid stupid evil daughters falling in love with the hero.

What if the hero had a dog? Or a twin? Or a younger version which came from the past to save the future?


When I get to be ruler of the world I will...
- End world hunger
- Establish free Internet for everyone, everywhere
- Rename the golden rasberries into "Uwe Boll Award."
- get everyone of those pesky scientists, critics and politicans who try to ban videogames in one room and tell them to get the over it. Then I invite a few head programmers of the gaming industry and throw them a feast like they have never seen before. The people mentioned before will have to watch of course. And them I will do my best to get the programmers work together more closly to get the following games out of it:
-A Star Wars fighting game based on Soul Calibur.
-A Jak and Ratchet game.
-A Final Fantasy VII remake.
-A new Super Smash Bros.. Because there's always room for more characters
- Give Michael Bay his own Island and a bigger budget
- Give my full support to stem cell research. Then tell those religious nuts to get the over it.
- Go to Marvel and tell Joe Quesada to clear up his desk for what he did to Spider-Man
- Retcon every single issue of "Brand New Day". One more day will end with Spidey beating the out of Mephisto.
- Make sure Christopher Nolan gets all the time and money he needs to make another Batman movie. Or a dozen.
- Pay scientists to explore the possiblity of phase shifting, so that Israel and Palastine can coexist in the same place.
- Pay scientists to build ray guns to fight the interdimensional invaders which have come to earth through phase shifting experiment
- Invite my friends for dinner...

The live action and cartoon were totally different. I loved the comic book (the original Tick!). I wasn't OMG over the cartoon. The live action really struck me as funny though, especially the 'Justice League' one.

I`m going to be Intelligent Evil Overlord (TM) so I`ll kick the dog (traditional) after I have killed all the others and deal with the time traveler saying: "I have seen my wicked ways and that I surrender. Here, have the keys to my Harem go and free all those poor nubile women that I forced to be my slaves against their will (not true, I prefer WILLING slaves less trouble when you are asleep but heroes are suckers for the unwilling word) while I comit suicide to atone for my sins on the other room" If the younger hero falls for it by the time their are finished with him he`ll be an empty husk

Well, to be fair, Die Fledermaus was also his name in the comic, which is my main bias against them changing any of the names in the live action.

Take everyone I dislike, put them on an island, and nuke it or something like that. Wheee!

I'd first make a law that said all laws must comply with the second law. Then the second law would make it illegal to make any act that cannot be directly (or indirectly) tied to harm of any non-consensual individual.
Want to grow, sell or do drugs? Go right ahead, as long as you only mess yourself up.
Want a hooker? Go ahead, it's your wanger that's going to burn when you pee, not mine.
Don't want to wear a seatbelt? Go ahead, it's not my ass flying through your windshield when/if you crash.
etc, etc, etc..
Don't want to go to school? Don't.. I just hope you like flipping burgers.

Next I'll teach the world the concept of war again by kicking France's ass for no better reason than making me look bad for being the crass, unsophisticated jerkhole I am. And after I've stomped the hell out of their infrastructure and made all the other nations hate me, I'd leave and never so much as offer them a dime in foreign aid and if any country said anything about it I'd say, "what, you want to be next?" The UN and the US must be reminded that war is mean and you can't have a "nice" war....
