The Top 100 Things I'd Do If I Became An Evil Overlord, Part 10

47. I will hire a team of board-certified architects and surveyors to examine my castle and inform me of any secret passages and abandoned tunnels that I might not know about.
48. If the beautiful princess that I capture says “I’ll never marry you! Never, do you hear me, NEVER !!!”, I will say “Oh well” and kill her.
49. I will not strike a bargain with a demonic being then attempt to double-cross it simply because I feel like being contrary.
50. The deformed mutants and odd-ball psychotics will have their place in my Legion of Terror. However before I send them out on important covert missions that require tact and subtlety, I will first see if there is anyone else equally qualified who would attract less attention.
51. My Legion of Terror will be trained in basic marksmanship. Any who cannot learn to hit a man-sized target at 10 meters will be used for target practice.
