Phill E-mailed me a link to the above video last night. It’s possibly the best piece of video I’ve seen on the Internet thus far. After watching it I now really feel that I’ve been too lazy about my plans to better my position in life by being the leader of a brain warped cult. I’ve long desired the easy living style of a cult leader, and now that it’s been broken down step by step, I really need to get to that. Or at least get some nice baby blue T-shirts made that say “cult member.”
To be honest, I think the real reason that more people don’t start up cults so that they can have a small army of devoted slaves is that they don’t want to have to be around mindless slaves all the time – dealing with “daily idiots” is bad enough, without having to deal with a specific pack of them constantly. I guess you’ve really got to value the ego-stroking power of the undivided attention of your followers, at least to a degree that you, the cult leader, are willing to sacrifice being around people you like and respect, or having any kind of interesting or rewarding interactions with people. But who cares when you own a half dozen Mercedes and live in a $5 million house in Malibu, right?
You can watch the 400px wide version above, or the embiggened version at Google Video.
