Death ray.

That's geek chic.

I prefer modern. A simple atomic sorting device - Zap someone, and they fall into neat little piles of their constituent atoms. You can do your murder and shopping all in one go. Better yet, in a pinch you can zap a few henchmen to get that "heaping teaspoon" of one element or another that recipes so often require. It's no wonder tupperware is selling them.

And of course, with you humans being mostly water, it's fun to light a match at the remains and watch the oxygen enriched hydrogen cloud explode.

how about a Dr. Device?

Well, there's the little detail that if you hit someone standing on a planet's surface, the Dr. Device will take out the planet as well.

Could use an undeath ray. Zap an enemy and they turn into willing, if rather dumb, zombie servants. I think TV evangelists use these rays a lot. ;)

I think you would be much better off to sort by molecules rather than by atoms. After all, the value of things like hydrogen, oxygen, carbon, potassium, nitrogen, etc. is pretty low. The value of things like insulin, testosterone (to be sold to jocks), epinepherine, human growth hormone, DNA and RNA, etc., is quite a few orders of magnitude greater.

Death and revenue--beats death and taxes any day.

But then you need to fit the head-mounted laser. What a bother.

Son, I was already dead before you were born. ;)

And congratulations.

ooh, death for profit. Even better than murder for profit because you sell the evidence.

yeah, killing people to raise an army of the dead is good and all but raising the already dead works so much better, it's not noticed as quickly.

Why not simply use advanced nanotechnology to transform your enemies into useful objects, such as RealDolls, or assault rifles? That's very cost-effective, efficient, and plus, you can dangle your enemies over these steaming vats of grey goo and slowly lower them for extra dramatic flair!

I'm scared already.

don't worry pimpy, when the robotic death is reigned upon humanity you will be one of the lucky few who gets to live.

Which is why I trust in my magic more than any so-called "Science". You depend on dials and switches, while those that can tap into the chaos of the world will truly rule over you all!

*wanders off, ranting and raving*

And congrats. :p

Hooray!

Hm, after this robotic death there may not be enough people left to support my pimping way of life.
I can be a chambermaid and tidy up the labs on my spare time!



...now that just gave me an amusing mental picture. Pardon me whilst I go illustrate it.

I will probably be the last one to be accepted in this kind of club.

Not only I'm not a scientist but an engineer, but I am also most likely to save the earth here. :D

i would find it very funny if a serb saved the earth, as we're more known for blowing up bits of it.

Hey, people love to support the underdog and they love to hear about the unlikely hero.
