Our magnificent, benevolent and omniscient alien overlord (all praise be unto him) is such a wonderful and wise ruler. We lowly slaves strive only to please his every whim (as is our duty and honor). For, it is only right for him to ask us to obey his every command. It is the natural structure of the universe (as we learned in our re-education). What difference does it make that we cannot understand his (assuredly superior) language? We are simply grateful when the overlord does not use his secret sonic weapon against us. In return for our efforts, his lordship will grant us periods of temporary tolerance, occasional bemusement and (when we are really lucky) ambivalence.On a totally unrelated note, have I mentioned how much I used to hate sleeping in, going out to eat, and watching TV in a quiet room? Actually, this entire post is all a big [[REDACTED BY THE MINISTRY OF INFORMATION SHARING]].
I am Susan's friend in Texas and I just hopped over here from there.
ReplyDeleteThis post begs for a comment, even thought you don't know me. I mean, this is seriously funny.
You are one of us now, friend. You'll get used to the smell.
LOL! This sounds like a speech right out of Star Wars or Star Trek. I bet you do feel directed around by your little Napoleonic overlord. Soon enough though, he will be under your command. My social marketing teacher was saying just the other day that it's been proven that having kids do chores benefits them as people later on in life. After all, people used to have kids to help them farm the land, right? :-)
ReplyDeleteOh, and also, he's a pretty darn cute overlord!
ReplyDeleteCould this ruler be any cuter?? I think I would follow his commands also...but, soon you two will overtake his lordship and rule over his domain, and he will be forever grateful for it. Give that little dictator another smooch from his great auntie.
ReplyDelete.... Just don't go calling him "Q" ....
ReplyDeleteMy wife says, "That's why they're cute, you know. To prevent a revolution and defenestration."
