Pyjama Day

Yeeeeaaaah – comfy pants. Some parents cope with school holidays by sending the spawnlings on camp, or to grandparents. Other parents team up and share the ‘babysitting’ around – amateur hour. At some time, it’s your turn to have a dozen or so 10-year-olds all at once. The trick is […]

Everything is Awesomely Evil

Have you seen The LEGO Movie? More importantly, have you figured out a way to get that damn song out of your head? Evil LEGO. Evil evil LEGO. Now let’s go shopping! But who would believe the evil intentions of the innocent LEGO brick? Well, for one – any poor […]

We Have A Tooth

Hey World Leaders! Want to know how to defeat an Evil Genius? Give them a baby. *sigh* No. Not defeated. But damn it’s hard to write a blog post about world domination when you’re seriously considering how to steal a hyperdrive to get off the planet. I don’t know how […]

Evil Genius Parent Award #45

The greatest parenting advice ever given to me was from EG Opa: Make sure your kids believe you are capable of anything. An-ny-thing. Coming from a man with a State Champ Black Belt in Karate, I definitely believed he could do anything. Protector and chief strategist; I know he would […]

I Want … A Kid-Size Ecto 1

Harold Ramis has died, and I suddenly have craving for Ghostbusters. Fortunately, we have it on DVD – as any good family should. Methinks movie night this Saturday. But a movie night for the spawnlings doesn’t seem to be enough to honour the comedic genius of Mr Ramis. What other […]

Evil Genius Parent Award #44

Going a bit ‘old school’ today and pulling this belated award from a parent I corrupted at school drop-off last week. Welcome to our fold, Sandra. Though, the following example of your work is more than fine start. Almost every spawnling will forget something in the school bag at some […]

Zaltu the Phlegm-Bot

Never give up. Never surrender!! Not even if your counterpart has taken off overseas for two weeks. That should merely toughen your resolve against the onslaught of spawnlings. Not even if your physical presence weakens with fatigue and wear-and-tear. Oh no – use this as an opportunity to ‘encourage’ your […]

Evil Genius Parent Award #43

Let’s stop for a moment and think about the power of the subconscious. One of the strongest ways to manipulate this is through song. Now, imagine you have an evil genius pair of mums with creative wit – and they are using the magic of music to flash your breasts. […]

One Valentine at a Time

If I see one more rose chocolate or pink sugar candy, I’m going to hit somebody with the closest book to hand. And I know many would love to see that. However, saying that – Valentine’s Day is another example of evil genius. Mix together the power of loneliness, the […]

The Smell of Fear

The spawnlings have been genetically enhanced. They can smell weakness at 50 paces. However, if they think a damaged knee is weakness, then they need further education. Many moons ago, EG Grandma broke her leg in 3 places, all around the ankle. She was in a cast for about 2 […]
