TakeOverTheWorld
#121035
Well, I already have...
#121036
Well a man can dream, right?
#121037
As can this woman. All hail your dark and terrible queen!
#121038
I'm sorry, but there's only room for one world-conquerer here... unless you want Spathiwa, then we can work out an agreement.
#121039
Mmm, Spathiwa will be good, I'll take it. Those eyeball dudes are so easy to scare into submission >:D
#121040
So now Tropettes are chanelling Galadriel?
#121041
@/{{Bisected8}}: Now, now ladies. Let's work this out. All we need is some competant muscle, a DoomsdayDevice and a plan. Then the world is ours for the splitting. *EvilLaugh*
#121042
I have all 3, but I require a femme fatale evil sidekick for the sake of fanservice before I can help you.
#121043
You rang?
#121044
Don your {{Stripperrific}} uniform, check in on the Bio-weapon research team and talk to our estate agency about a new lair. The lava waterfall isn't a deal breaker but it'd be really nice to have. Oh, and cancel my 4 O'clock, I'll be busy raising Gary Gygax as a demi-lich. After that you can take the rest of the day off.
#121045
Are you a certified member of my FemmeFatale league? I'd hate to find out that someone was uncertifiedly calling themselves a FemmeFatale, since we work so hard to...discourage...that sort of thing. And remember: There's no substitute for qualified help,. The United Union of Dark Chicks, providing certified women trained in the arts of espionage, assasination, unarmed combat, armed combat, and sewing since 1543! The UUDD: Accept no Substitutes!
#121046
Now really, if I had a working plan to take over the world, you think I'd share it?
#121047
Oh...but you will.... Plus you kinda already implied that you have one, which is enough.
#121048
What if he's a decoy?
#121049
Then we make an example of them.
#121050
OF COURSE!
#121051
This troper used to dream of (and regularly plot) global domination, but then decided that she'd get bored with actually running things.
#121052
This troper would do so, but his plans for his homeland are more of kicking down the sandcastle than building it. But his plans would be for a FeudalFuture, with the LandOfDragons firmly in control through deposing the DirtyCommunists and installing a new royal family. Ruling behind the scenes, of course, but even if he tried the more obvious route with everyone knowing he is in charge instead, he would engage in the destruction of Rosedale, Victoria, Australia. Also, once in control of the world or at least a sizeable enough area, he would abolish marriage and establish mandatory child-rearing centres to replace families, with the objective of turning the entire population into obedient {{TykeBomb}}s who would not question the Lord Protector's ambition or word, and would be all ready for BootCamp, also with the objective of making everyone have identical childhoods, part of what else is done in the name of equality. Any nation who would not surrender accept the rule of the Lord Protector would be chastised, those notorious for resisting would suffer a grim fate indeed. But first he'd need a bunch of self-created {{Mooks}} like in Series/DoctorWho the Toclafane were for The Master - this troper would instead need his own personal species of creatures - preferrably a whole army of this Kelpie yellow-eyed version of Rei Ayanami AmazonBrigade (albinistic eyes like Rei's would be in RealLife would render them useless as soldiers, so the yellow-eye colour like certain Australian breeds of dog). '''However:''' This troper, once in power in at least one 'homebase' nation, probably his own, he would intentionally dress as if he were AtTheOperaTonight as opposed to the usual mundane jeans-and-shirt look he adopts now, for the simple idea that it would be hard for potentially hostile foreign powers to take a theatrically-dressed dictator seriously these days and thus he'd hopefully seem less of a threat by dressing eccentrically. It used to work for Qaddafi, so it might work for him. Nonetheless, if he really was in some kind of sci-fi comic-book or anime type universe and became some sort of supervillain with ultratech who did TakeOverTheWorld, his rule would probably become something like TheMaster from Series/DoctorWho ruling Earth, but instead of being a LaughingMad jackass he would be a cold, humorless ruler, but still preparing for war.
#121053
@/BTIsaac would love nothing more than Take advantage of the failing economy so he can take over the world. Then help realize his vision of the future: US and EU in ruins, and Far eastern countries expanding over what's left of them.
#121054
This Troper has pondered taking over the world several times, and even wrote a poem about what he'd do once he succedded. Later on, I decided to start smaller and rule a Tri-state area instead.
#121055
This troper actually has taken over the world! Um. . . carry on with whatever you were doing.
#121056
Wait...what d'you mean...oh look! TV Tropes! (wanders off)
#121057
Bow down before your new master! All hail me!
#121058
This Troper is currently Lawful Good, but if he is to ever return to Lawful Evil...All Hail The Emperor of all That is, Was, Was Not, Will Be, Will Not Be, Can Be, Can Not Be, Might Be, Might Not Be, Should be, Should Not Be, And Everything Concurrent, Before, Beyond, and Inbetween. (I Thought This Through.) Lucky for everyone, I'm not really fond of evil.
#121059
Since she entered highschool this troper has become depressed fairly easily, and the only things that never fail to cheer her up are fantasies about how the world would be gloriously reformed in her dictatorship. I believe society would be much less corrupt if everyone lived in fear that I would slowly and painfully execute them for deviating from my slightest whim...
#121060
I will help, but you MUST give me Iceland. All hail the resurgent Vikings!
#121061
This Troper's wonderful boyfriend will one day rule over every single one of you. Yes, I do mean you. After all, behind every great man is an even greater woman. And we're both so delightfully screwed up. Yeah, you should all hide now.
#121062
Out of curiosity, does the name Zenmaru mean anything to you?
#121063
I actually tried this when I was younger. I was pissed off because my teacher technically called me short, so I was going to rip off Butters from South Park and start a super villain team. What got me back to my senses?
#121064
NOTHING AT ALL!!
#121065
Look people, we should take over the world together, divide it, then spend the next 50 years waging pointless wars in an attempt to gain control over eachothers pieces.
#121066
It worked for the UN it will work for us.
#121067
This troper was once informed by her classmate that of the people in their year, she was the one most likely to take over the world. I was quite amused by this, though I have no plans at this point to do so.
#121068
I'm not hammy enough to be an EvilOverlord. I can't figure out physics so there goes mad science. All I have is a seething rage against the current systems and I really do want to rule the world. I'm currently forming the Apocalypse Party of Canada. Our goals are to either rule or end the world. I need a physics-defying scientist, a good bodyguard, and some finger beams. I'll skip the FemmeFatale, thank you very much. I'm personally antisexual, but we're not telling our voters that...
#121069
In high school, I developed my own plan to take over the world. First I would become rich in the stock market, then I would buy my own robot factory to build a robot army capable of taking over the world. I would promise people that as ruler of the world, I would end world hunger and poverty.
#121070
I have absoluutely no plans to engulf the world in flames and spill the blood of all who live on it.
#121071
Guys, guys, guys. Can't we just rule the world as one? By combining our genius and our might, we can bring about a new age of prosperity and peace! I call dibs on the title "Supreme Emperor of the Human Empire", of course.
#121072
You can have that title, as long as the approved battlecry of your armies is "FOR THE EMPEROR!"
#121073
Does it have to be this world because i want to takeover Mars.
#121074
I don't want to rule the world, it would be way too complicated. I'll simply take awesome Australia, and my fellow tropers can divide the rest of the world between themselves.
#121075
OK, you can have Australia, so long as you give me control of Iceland, Ireland and Greenland. This Australian troper likes the cold weather better, and he's going to need a bit of Guinness every now and again (from the stress of being a regional governor). He thinks Iceland is a beautiful country and would keep much of everything there intact (except for him being seen as a sovereign), but he'd rather rule from Dublin - putting up with jokes akin to what Australians level at New Zealanders is the lesser evil compared what he has heard to be the wonders of Icelandic cooking. I'll leave Northern Ireland to whoever gets Britain, since managing something like TheTroubles would be difficult without support from, say, China. Then again, troublemakers from Ireland could be simply sent to Greenland to feed the wild polar bears - of course disarmed and given a few day's rations plus cyanide pill. Although I don't think I'd dine in Iceland too regularly, as a lot of it seems ForeignQueasine to an Australian like me (I say that, and yet eat the good ol' Aussie meat pies...)
#121076
This troper has on many occasions considered taking over the world just to be the most AffablyEvil ruler in existence.
#121077
This troper has seriously pondered ways to take over the world, and spent a fair chunk of high school in union with like minded nerds plotting how we would do just that. ...The plans got relatively complex. After all, everyone will be one with Russia, da?
#121078
In 4th grade this troper made highly detailed plans to take over her school to the point of devolping musical codes as battle comands. I showed it to some friends and once to a parent claiming it was a joke and they all agreed that if I had even just 50 kids in the army it would work.
#121079
I once wished of fulfilling this trope but dumped it because running a {{dystopia is hard}} and obviously, this trope is so overused to the point it becomes boring.
#121080
This Troper asks: Why bother to rule, when the fireworks would be so much better~?
#121081
Because I have plans for the world, and I refuse to rule over a charred wasteland?
#121082
This troper is going to Kotomine his way to the goal: be something obscure while working in a XanatosRoulette.
#121083
This troper came up with some hilarious plans of what he would do if he took over the world...when he was ten. He got over it when he realised that ruling the world would get very boring after a while. Or am I just fooling with you? I'm not. [[MemeticMutation OF COURSE! ]]
#121084
I myself have been thinking of these since i was 10 or so. planning and daydreaming are sort of a hobby for me. most of them were rather lame, usually missing a step two, and i was generally to lazy and embroided in other things to think of executing one. however, i recently decided to work on my flaws and do something with my life, so im planning a good one this time (hey, it beat a nine to five job). my first drafts utilise powered armours, right-wing extremists, the mob, norad and orphanages and other socila projects. i know i cannot control the world alone, so i will need a large administration, and maybe some co-rulers for different area's. Feel free to apply. i'm calling dibs on western europe though.
#121085
There are at least 4 people at my high school who have expressed wishes to do just this. This led to a friend and I speculating that World War III will be a war between the various factions run by wannabe dictators from our school. Other factions, such as a group of technology-loving nerds running LaResistance or me as TheManBehindTheMan for one of my more world domination-inclined friends, have also been established. If any WarIsGlorious, this war most certainly will be.
