New tweet: “sure, you could rule the galaxy, but you could also nap for a million hours, & one of those options would involve way fewer meetings, I’m just saying, Lord God-King McBroods-a-Lot” New tweet: “…every time a villain’s like ‘I SHALL COMMAND MILLIONS’ I’m like, ‘bitch, you ever so much as led like a 6-person team? YOU DON’T WANT TO MULTIPLY THAT NUMBER. TRUST. THE CONFERENCE CALLS WILL NEVER END.” Reply: “LISTEN! Folks WILL reply all!!! You don’t want this. I really questioned Hela on this point.” Reply: “OMG YES. like, girl, if you really want to punish your brothers, put them in charge of mandatory meetings through lunch that could as easily be a 3-line email, tell them they’re responsible for ‘Asgardian team building,’ & peace out before 5″] There was an old Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles episode where they went to an alternate timeline where they never mutated and Shredder took over the world. And the world is shit. Falling apart. Everything is decrepit. When they reach Shredder, he’s in an office FULL of unfinished paperwork, alllllll the shit that needs to be done to keep the world running and it’s all gotta go through him, ruler of the world. He can’t keep on top of it. He hates it. He has an ulcer. He begs the turtles to take him to their world where he’s defeated on a regular basis. It’s pretty great, at least up until the episode ends with a shitty “it was all a dream” thing, but still. Similar thing happened in the Emperor Doom graphic novel. Doctor Doom actually succeeded in taking over the world, and he hated it. When the heroes eventually managed to snap out of it and attack him, he didn’t fight back all that hard. -- source link
