This joke thing I left on an OkCupid quiz
It would be my decree that the world pledge its ultimate allegiance to me as sole Grand Emperor of the Earth. By-laws to this ultimate edict would include the establishment of a global space program to spread our species across the galaxy, the allotment of funds to establish a nanotechnology research firm in which we can allow ourselves to live in perfect health forever, and more-than-adequate education provided to the entire world on the basis of several facts:
1) That the emperor serves for life (forever with nanotechnology) and governs by doing what is best for humanity as a whole and the environment of our home planet as well as other planets we colonize.
2) That this system of government is the only one that can work for the people united.
3) That we are all of the same genetic make-up; that we are the same genus and species! and
4) That all disputes are settled by way of duels--under consent of *both* parties--and will be final; the duels will be won based on one match against the opponent in either of the following competitions:
* a game of intelligence (chosen from an area in which both are strong)
* a feat of physical prowess (considering strength and dexterity of individuals as factors)
* by the tossing of a coin or rolling of a die (if both sides would prefer it settled randomly)
* or by staying up longer than the opponent without the use of stimulants (as long as both parties were found to be ready and well-rested and awaken at the same time).
Pass the world along... with myself as emperor, nothing can go wrong and everything will be right. It has to be.
