Thoughts about Movie Villains Enslaving Mankind.

Why do 90% of all movie villains want to enslave mankind? It sounds good in theory. But have you seen mankind lately? We need to take a sick day from a desk job, we're not going to make good slaves! The work will be shoddy at best and you can only blame yourself for that bad guys. Once you enslave us, then what? That's a lot of people to order around and supervise and some people don't take orders well....you've been to the drive through at a fast food place, you know what I'm talking about! It really just seems like a big hassle, doesn't it? Regardless of whatever magical powers or evil inventions you have, human beings have gotten a lot harder to deal with in recent centuries. It won't exactly be a cake walk. Speaking of cake. Using fit people for your enslavement plan might work, but since the majority is overweight, they're not going to be cut out for manual labor. Sure, take over a mansion and become rich, but leave the rest of us poor saps alone. We're just happy if we make it through one day without crying. We're already pretty much slaves to our electronics and various foodstuffs.

Informercials make me LOL

If aliens or people in the future ever see the black and white dramatizations of infomercials, they'll probably think we're all blithering morons incapable of even the simplest tasks. Whereas that might be true for some people, it does not bode well for the general populous. I love how it shows that after you receive (insert infomercial product name here) your life is just substantially so much better, the world is in color again, everyone is jumping around and happy music is playing. When in reality you probably find the box on your doorstep, open it, say "Oh that's what it looks like" and then use it once, hate it, repack it, vow to send it back but never do, and shove it in the back of your closet. Is there one company that handles all the infomercial marketing because all these things are always exactly the same format. If the product is so great and mindblowing, then how come it isn't available in regular stores? And how did $19.99 (and in some instances, $19.95) become the universally agreed upon price for 98% of all infomercial products? Is it some kind of secret code or conspiracy? Does having something under $20 make it simply irresistible to the masses? And why do we really need two of everything? (with additional shipping and handling) Does doubling the offer make the product all that more enticing or are they just trying to unload 6 warehouses full of merchandise that no one wants? 4 to 6 weeks for delivery? Why? Is it coming from a deep space black hole? These are the questions.
