Change of Direction

[lagilman]

So, in discussions this past week, I realized that I've been going about this all wrong. I'm not evil.

No, really. When people describe me, 'evil' is not the word that comes to mind. Evil implies way too much work, a bald head, and ridiculously excessive ambition. And, anyway, nobody describes my sense of humor/laugh as "evil"

They say it's wicked.

Which, yanno? Works.

So, we* are hereby changing the designation of our henchthings, and proclaiming a new motto:


Wicked Minion:
Half the work of Evil, but 2x the fun


There will be buttons. Possibly t-shirts. Eventually, flasks.

In honor of this, we are instituting a Wicked Minion Drive this weekend. Sign up in comments, or via lag[at]lauraannegilman[dot]net


(Yes, D, your status as Lead Minion remains unchanged)




*not so much the royal we as the fact that the cats want in on it, being wicked themselves, too

I wish to be a Minion!

[blitheringpooks.livejournal.com]

I'm in.

[booraven22.livejournal.com]

I'm already a minion, but would maim for the T-shirt!
:)

[ceosanna.livejournal.com]

I'm in, especially if there's the possibility of flasks.

[nycdeb.livejournal.com]

ooooh, flasks!

[jslinder.livejournal.com]

Happy to add another Minion role to my list (BTW, check out userfriendly.orgs Evil Minion program for some good swag ideas) :)

Wicked doesn't need to borrow from others. Wicked strikes its own path... (usually right to the booze and bookstores...)

I do need a new icon, tho. Hrmmmm

[jhetley.livejournal.com]

Well, in Maine "wicked" is a compliment. "Wicked good!"

Do the flasks come pre-filled?

[cypherindigo.livejournal.com]

Just need to find a place that puts the two together and I would never leave....

[martianmooncrab.livejournal.com]

I have Minioned, I have been Evil, I have references to prove it... and I am on call.

[lagilman]

If I found a decent wineshop/bookstore with wifi, I'd move in. "Author on call!"

Hmm I have been called Empress of Evil but Wicked minion sound so much more fun. Count me in!

[supertailz.livejournal.com]

If you still need more, totally in!

Wicked smaht! Wicked fun! Wicked Minions!

Also, flasks! Score!

[fakefrenchie.livejournal.com]

I'm not wicked or evil! I'm very nice. ;-)

[jennythe-reader.livejournal.com]

I'm always up for wickedness for a good cause. Sign me up!

(By the way, what do Wicked Minion duties entail?)

I'm already a fan-girl, I might as well be a Wicked Minion too :)

I can only imagine the conversation around the dinner table tonight.

"How was work today?"

"Oh, not too bad. I'm a Wicked Minion now."

"A what?"

[cypherindigo.livejournal.com]

Well we could always open one, but it couldn't be in PA we have the most medieval liquor laws in the country.

(By the way, what do Wicked Minion duties entail?)

Shilling and swilling, mainly. Enabling others to spend money on books [booze, quality jewelery, etc]. Coaxing people into ways of wicked minionship.

[klingonguy.livejournal.com]

This is an excellent plan. I applaud your diabolical intentions.

[mzipser.livejournal.com]

Minion me. Sounds like fun (2x).

[smoemeth.livejournal.com]

Since I am already a professional Minion, I might as well become a Wicked one. ;)
