"We hold the world ransom for one...hundred...billion dollars."

World domination is getting pretty damned expensive. Even Starbucks has had to jack up the price of their java by 5 cents a cup, just to make sure that the barristas (I hate that fucking word) can earn a living wage, while paying the poor Vietnamese, Kenyan and Colombian coffee growers something more as well. Of course, most coffee growers are living in countries where the GDP is less than Oprah spends on her haircut.

US per capita GDP is $41,415.00 per annum versus $1,070.00 for Kenya, $2,751.00 for Vietnam and $7,742.00 (thanks to all of that cocaine) for Colombia.)

So, what is my point? Oh yeah, world domination. In order to dominate the world, I anticipate having to spend a buttload of money. Perhaps you could help out by donating to the cause. Oh, and there is a cause, to be announced sometime later.

That is the only reason for that little donate button.

And if you don't click on it, I will flood the earth with liquid hot magma.

Muahahaha. Muahahaha.

It is a Grande No Water Soy Chai, thank you very much. I didn't say I was going to give up Starbucks, I merely said that the prices had been raised.
