Its a saturday afternoon and you are bored. You decide to take over the world. How would you go about it? How long do you think it would take you? Humor is welcome but I'm more interested in seeing how people approach the problem and what novel methods they might attempt.

Youth is interesting. Sounds like a few cults I know. People are so egotistical. Hang a little power on a stick and you can get them to do anything. The whole time they will think they are in control. Thanks to cognitive dissonance they will also convince themselves that they are doing the right thing and anyone they victimize is a "bad guy." Its really sad. Of course thats 90% of our police and military recruiting so you already know that. It looks like that is also the determining factor in most of our elections. *sigh* Who would want to take over this world? Hey, I'm not sure I even want to live on it.

recruit the squirrels. you might have to bribe them with acorns but thay've been itching for a chance at world dominaiton for a while but havn't been able to get a good leader. before doing anythign else, eliminate all penguins, using holocaust-style tactics if necessary. penguins will be your biggest obstacle if you attempt to take the world by force, and are very dangerous as they can breath fire.once the penguins are taken care of, it shouldn't be too difficult; start with the worlds oil supplies in the middle east, Russia, the Gulf, Alaska, Latin America... sell the oil to countries on the condition that they dismantle their military, especially getting rid of their nukes (though you may want to save 3 or 4 for a rainy day) offer any dissidents of your rule a one-way, all expenses paid trip to the moon, where they can live happily ever after for about 12 seconds. this should take between 3-4 weeks, depending on the quality of your nuts bribe and the ability of your squirrel mercenaries to surpise attack the penguins before a sounterattack can be organized

Youth participation. See WWII Hitler Youth.
Young minds can be molded to believe what I would wish them to believe. All one needs is to be an eloquent speaker and you have it made. While it's true that kids may be more cynical these days than "back then" inner-city kids that need something to fight for, especially would find the idea of being part of a powerful organization.
Not saying that kids are stupid or anything, just my idea.
At least you can laugh at it, if you find it amusing. =)

Brainwashing comes to mind as the most peaceful way. You would have to get the rest of the world population to follow you and agree with you to get them under your power.
PS. I linked to you because of a question you gave me best answer for and I just figured we were on the same page and you would be a good smart person to put in my network. I hope thats OK.

I like your anserw guy who posted above me. =P anyway I'd just create a big hydrogen bomb and threaten everything in existance with it. Hydrogen is very unstable and combustable and the infinate power source that man has not yet harnessed for powering things like cars.
