Sitting in biology this morning I realized that I should have went into genetics, biology or at least chemistry. I don’t really like it all that much, but it has it’s benefits. Because, if I am going to be a scientist I want to be a mad scientist. Before Lex Luthor was president or Dr. Doom was a king they were scientists. Most villains start out trying to solve the worlds problems and in the end want to rule it.  If you’re good; you can reanimate corpses, make death rays, build freeze guns and gloves that shoot lightning. I think that’s what scientists should be focusing on. Let’s get the “Face-Melty Death Ray of Doom” figured out first. With a death ray you won’t have to worry about the things like laws or governments trying to stop your science-ing. Besides you get henchmen or robots when you’re an evil genius. When you’re a regular scientist you just get boring lab techs. So in honor of the mad scientist, I present my top 5.

1) Dr. Doom

2) Lex Luthor

3) Dr. Mile Dyson

4) Dr. Frankenstein

5) Dr. Horrible
