The Under-Appreciated Villains
As might be expected, I happen to be a strong supporter of villains everywhere. Why? Because who really makes things happen! Villains take ordinary, dull, peaceful life and throw it all to Hell (in some cases, literally). Then along comes the heroes, who come in various shapes and forms, though nearly all are annoying, yet supposedly "lovable", and they defeat the evil villains and bring everything back to monotony.
They destroy dreams! Twisted and vile as they may be, they're still someone's dreams! Evil, nasty, scummy heroes! And they always get praised for it all! But really, let's consider the upside to being on the bad side of things.
1. Villains tend to get very nice clothes, and mostly in blacks, though some pull off white and colors quite nicely. Though that's expected since they hire all the best designers. They can do this because-
2. Villains typically have the most money. They're just special that way.
3. Villains have the best dialogue. The heroes are stuck with positive, characteristically defiant lines, while villains have all the fun cursing and talking on about their wrath, or in some cases, they get to just make no sense at all. It's a very versatile occupation.
4. Villains always have the most interesting housing. From mansions, haunted houses, and bizarrely decorated apartments, to looming castles, dank caves, and laboratories. And no landlords.
5. Since when did the heroes ever get devices of mass destruction and terror?
6. Not only is insanity more widely accepted among villains, it's encouraged! Nothing adds flavor to being evil than an appropriately twisted psyche.
7. While some prefer to work solo, villains always have the choice of hiring dozens of oddly dressed henchmen to do the dirty work and provide ample time for escape from the heroes.
8. Villains come in any shape or form, and can run to the extremes of monstrously hideous, which is highly intimidating, or unusually attractive, to manipulate their way to their goals.
9. Villains always get the best background music. It's just law.
10. Aside from the frequent habit of being thwarted, villains really just have more fun in the meantime, and get to have climactic battles. Heroes can get killed off en route to the end, villains stay through it all.
Why to be Evil in 10 Reasons or Less!
So the next time you see a villain, give them a pat on the back!
Or if you like keeping all your limbs attached, just support them from afar and donate gift baskets of medication to whichever jail or asylum they happen to wind up in later on.
I'm sure they'll appreciate it.
