With Fame Comes Opposition! Meet G.I. Mike!

My rise to power and global domination of the bloggsphere continues! My Chatty DM clone is slowly winning everyone over with his niceness, cross-pollination and other pseudo-socio-fluffy constructs.

Witness the number of times the Head Gnome linked to me in today’s post and tell me I’m not right!

Heck, we even managed to beat the legendary Yax in terms of Technorati ranks!

I’m unstoppable! Mwa HA HA HA!

But what’s this I see on my Overlord threat radar? Do I see dissent? Do I see the nascent germination of opposition? Oh joy, could it be that I gained another Nemesis?

As I was slowly taking over a quaint little blog called ‘The Things the Still Carry‘ one of the co-authors took umbrage to Chatty leaving a comment! Going as far as naming him ChattyAsshat!

He then added more and called out for open warfare!

I like his style! Pity he decided to play for the other team!

I’ll name him G.I. Mike so we don’t confuse him with my most loyal of Imperial guards minion Mike. It’s a fitting name for a “Hero” and is also appropriate since he’s an on-duty member of the US Armed Forces.

But boyo, your beef is with me! Not Chatty. You can rave at the mouth about the French and Canadians. You can laugh at our humble origins and our apparent taste for Mimes and Blue Cheese… (Although you should know that Poutine and Hockey is a far deadlier combination) but know this: I shall win you over and make you cross to the dark side of Evil.

I’ve already converted your wife to the evil joys of crunchy Role Playing games and she’s already taking over your blog with her enthusiastic journey to becoming the best of Overlords: a Dungeonmaster!

And now I will do what you fear the most.

I ask of you my dear minions to go over Mike’s latest saber-rattling post and drop comments on it.

But here is where my fiendish plot becomes mind-bogglingly awesome. Do not leave insults, give him words of encouragement, ask him to write more (he’s a great, if shy writer), give him support for the hard job he and his buddies are trying to accomplish in Iraq (regardless of your personal feeling for the decisions that lead them there). Tell him his wife will be an awesome DM. Encourage him to join us in the dark side of the Rule of Cool and Evil fun!

That should drive him insane and make him into a loyal minion within a day or two.

Now that’s what being an evil overlord is all about!

Go forth minions and make me proud! As usual, clone replacements are on me and all commenters will get a free holiday on my secret Island Base Resort! (Now 60% safer from Nuclear raids!)
