You were supreme overlord of the world?


Mine of course would be an iron fist rule, one very harsh. Death for any crime, the Fucking useless economy thrown out of the window to end greed, and the same pay for every job, so no one gets better than another, putting an end to corrupt unions.

Finally, anyone who tried to rebel against my rule would suffer the consequences, and be made an example of. Mine would be rule by fear, and order. MWAHAHAHA!

What would you do?

I'd get everything painted pink

I'd resign. The only fun thing would be owning the world, not ruling it.

I'd post inane drivel on NS every day.

Now theres a sensible Idea.

Hmmm.... a plan of action. First of all, dispand or convert that blasted MI6. Wouldn't want Bond to foil my schemes time and time again. Second, I'd start to build spaceships designed in my own image of glory and legend. I'd have the finest sculptors in all the land to carve images of me, and anyone who didn't get it exactly right would be flung into the chasm of doom. I'd havea day of the week dedicated to me, and I'd have a golden ring made with a certain inscription, but I wouldn't bind my power to rule into it, as that seems to go a little bit pear-shaped. I'd crush all those who still dared to oppose me, turning their life into a living, and quite imaginative hell. I'd impose newspeak upon the peasantry, all the way up to the upper class who would be taught true English, as I do need scientists to research all of the sci-fi technology I intend to cherish dearly. Equal rights in all its guises would be abolished, and I would have the only vote, because ironic democracy makes me laugh. I wouldn't be un-necessarily cruel because that's just rude, and just because I'm better than everyone else doesn't mean I have to be rude. Everyone who I didn't like would be sent to the soap mines, and the underwater salt mines, where they will be trampled on occasion by sea wildebeast, primarily for my own amusement, and the amusement of my highest generals and treacherous vizier who will neverhave a chance of winning.

I'd have a different colour three-buttoned suit for each day of the week to let me look forward to monday (white suit day), because I never get to look forward til monday at the moment. My dogs will be trained to attack the homeless, especially the homeless who play instruments badly. It will be mandatory to praise me as the absolute ruler at least 10 times per day, because otherwise people might forget. Apart from that, I dunno. Insist on quality sandwiches?

I'd ban paisley, fluorescent pink, and 4WDs, make not indicating left before turning off from major roundabouts punishable by death.
Oh, and I'd make mathematics compulsory for the HSC, and ban technical skills courses from universities. A degree in aromatherapy...
Quality sandwiches? What about making it highly illegal to make bad coffee?

rule by benevolent compassion. raise taxes loads to pay for brilliant, free education worldwide and the furtherment of scientific research. education would subtly indoctrinate the world with anti-agressive, anti-competative and compassionate behaviour (somehow...) and we would work towards the betterment of our collective lives and the species (like the Common Good in Rousseau). A worldwide NHS (free medical care) to be well funded, and a fair and progressively income-redistributional welfare system, to be under constant scrutiny and review.
There would be no iron fist - terrorists, rogue states, etc would be encouraged to openly enter negotiations. If talks go badly we change tactic and try to subtly show them that there is more to the world than their petty quarrels. In this way we could end the current 'fact' that violence is the only language terrorists know. Terrorism begets terrorism, because the violence of one terrorist causes others to rise up in anger. Remove the violence and the problem is, at least, helped. This is a long term goal. The real troublemakers for the world order will have to be assasinated, and countries invaded only by some form of UN resolution.
Total nuclear disarmament, a concerted effort to help Africa modernise: if i'm leader of the world then we can get rid of the squabbling, power-hungry megolomanicas who currently are heads of state in many african countries.

blah blah blah i could go on forever - even im getting bored :headbang:

Obviously he's on your execution list.

*brandishes dark red axe menacingly*
I - hate - pink. Especially fluorescent... I think it's something to do with a repressed memory from my childhood.

You were raped by a man in a fluorescent pink jacket? Oh dear...

What about lime green?

Sideshow Bob
Lower taxes, brutalise criminals and rule you like a king!

Ban religion, pass eugenics laws, give everyone access to a top quality education, and establish a progressive taxation system that will redistribute income from the very rich to the very poor. The poor would get enough for food, clothing, and shelter, everyone gets free medical care and the phenomenon of CEOs earning hundreds of times what their employees make would end.

I would introduce draconian "common sense laws". Basically society would be a utopia, where you can do whatever you like. However, if I deem something you do to be dumb and/or annoying, you will be dragged off to the torture chamber.

i'd give away half of it away and wage war every day. :mp5: :gundge: :sniper: :mp5:

hugging and kissing and other public displays of affection would be banned. I'd also make it mandatory to paint your house in an olive-green, sandy yellow, black and grey combination. then i'd seek out aliens with my super-spaceprogram and hunt them down with the elite-army i'd have when i've conquered earth again.

Yeah, I'd propose something like that too to be applied to the real world. all these people that sue companies, dog owners, other unfortunate people, would be locked up sharpish if my sensecrime laws came to pass. If you sue anyone if you stick your hand in a blender without making sure it's off, shoot a dog with an air rifle and then get surprised when it mauls you, then you could be sent to jail for many years! And the world gets better.

Yeah, I just find it stupid that people who know the system can bend the law to what they want. So, I would introduce a provision where I can go into the courtroom and go "don't be a silly bastard. Off to the torture chamber with you".

Although hand in a blender cases may be let off if they're sufficiently amusing...

The hat law. All must wear some sort of hat when outside.

Make it more specific. In fact, make it quality dependent. Upon reaching... 13, a questionairre must be answered. The percentage determines the quality of the person, and so the hat they must wear. The "A" quality people MUST wear a Fedora, upon pain of death when outside.


Other than that, I support that law.

I think it should be taken one step further and make it so a live cat must be worn on your head whenever you venture outside.

It is now illegal drive around in a swimsuit.

How about making "all your base are belong to us" billboards everywhere? That has to be done.

No, lets make this "hat class" system more flexible. If someone can find a hat that I find amusing enough, they can wear it. However, if the funniness of the hat wears thin, they must start wearing their type of hat again.

And what manner of hat would be reserved for the ruler of the world?

It's gotta be a badass beret.

Now that's somthing I can do.

All your base airlines:

"Ladies and gentlemen, please look to your left."

LOL. it's a great morale message though. What better way to get your minions motivated to get up every morning than with a massive loudspeaker blast of "ALL YOUR BASE ARE BELONG TO US!!!!!!!!!"

nah, some kind of mechanical top-hat with the cogs and the funnels for the steam. Yeah. A mechanical hat.

You have no chance to survive now make your time!

As long as I get cuban cigars. :p

mandatory

First give an Oscar type speech to the sea of dead bodies you had to kill to become overlord or lady. Wiping a tear from my eye O wow I wanna thank god..who I killed, my personal trainer...who I killed, my goldfish..who I had for dinner, my Parents...yep killed em years ago, smary b***tards trying to ground me...well I just grounded em back..permanently and so

Then I would declare world peace, cancel all 3rd world debt, ban all political parties, set up regional governments council, make trians etc run on time. I think apart from the paronia I'd be great!

I'd make sure that anyone who was too lazy didn't get a job and anyone that worked hard enough got a good one. A lazy person from a wealthy family could end up on the street, a hard worker from the slums could end up making 500k a year.

Sir, I give you my personal thumbs up. :)

I've learned that hard work, even from people who may not be the most intellegent, shoud still be rewarded.

Would an all your base hat be deemed amusing?

If it had a smily face on it somewhere, yes it would.

If I ruled the world I would have a lot of work on my hands. I'd change education, law enforcement, and probably everything else too.

I can't describe what I'd do if I ruled the world, it's just too detailed.

I would simply ban credit, with the exception of mortgages on property which will be the sole property of mortgagee. (No beach homes, etc. on credit.) The rest I would leave alone. Let the people go.
