Evil Genius Parent Award #9

Let me clarify – my kids are still alive. Barely. But they are alive. I would post a “Proof of Life” but I can’t seem to capture a photo that doesn’t include some incriminating evidence anyway. The amount of times Sinister and Nefarious are arguing over who is going to […]

I want a 3D Scanner

We’ve all been there. The doorbell rings, the neighbours are invited in – and you suddenly realise your child’s designs for a freeze ray gun are currently displayed, front and centre of the kitchen. Awk-ward. Of course, in our evil lair, the freeze ray gun design is at least a […]

Evil Genius Parent Award #8

At first I thought that Daddown Under was a sweet guy, not worthy of my ‘Evil Genius’ attention. But over the last few weeks, his posts have been showing some potential shining through. His evil is a bit more subtle – not realising how evil he is until after you […]

Forensic Friday #2 – Slime

Evil Genius Parent Award #7 – Hallowe’en

Hallowe’en. Sure, most of us think that it is just an opportunity for Cadbury’s and Allens to make a mint *grin*. It is supposed to be a festival. Lots of ghouls, science experiments gone wrong, that sort of thing. With Halloween, there’s not much opportunity to really practice your evil genius. Most of the […]

Forensic Friday #1 – Snappy Ruler

Fridays are now “Forensic Fridays” – or “How to Avoid Forensics through your Knowledge of Science – Fridays”. Batman would be proud. Big thanks to EG Opa for buying Sinister the “365 Science Experiments Book” … and a contribution towards the Home and Contents Insurance. We’re starting off small. Don’t […]

Evil Genius Parent Award #5

It takes a special skill to include your neighbours in your … activities. This week’s recipient has not only done that, but he has established a convincing defence. Reservoir Dad is a pretty established blogger, with an excellent library of Evil Genius Parenting Examples. It helps that he is a dad […]
