The DU Lounge plan for world domination, sponsored by Tommy_Carcetti
If there's one thing we know about the human race, it is that they like Youtube. The fact is, people like Youtube more than work. They may even like Youtube more than eating, sleeping and fornication. Yes, the power of the Youtube is strong indeed.

For my plan to take over the world, I will recruit Susan Boyle to star in a coreographed wedding procession. The entire world will be transfixed at this seemingly homely woman and her unlikely talent, and how she is able to transcend the stuffy traditional underpinings of contemporary weddings to make the ceremony fun and spontaneous again.

Like locusts, people will instinctively start forwarding this video to each other, with taglines such as "You've got to see this!" and "I cried when I saw this!". Entire workplaces will grind to a halt, paralyzed by employees more interested in Susan Boyle crooning out Chris Brown's "Forever" while engaged in a slow motion break dance. Productivity levels shall drop to zero, output shall become virtually non-existant. Markets will crash, and panic and anarchy will ensue.

The world's governments, themselves transfixed by Susan's siren song and dance, will be powerless and uninterested in surpressing the mob. Their governments will fall like a house of cards, and we shall assume control of the world! Yes, I say, yes!

1. that could actually work
I've had "Forever" stuck in my head for days since I first saw that wedding video. You add Susan Boyle and the world will actually stop in its tracks. You get Susan, I'll reserve a church!

3. The LOLcatz will be the effect of our takeover, not the cause.
LOLcatz for everyone, for every purpose.

Or, if you prefer, an LOLzBillyCorgan.
