I wish I had me some intelligence... Wacko

This is all I got:
1. I only play Opeth when my parents are far far away (or with headphones)
2. I can't order foods at restaurants without messing it up, but I still always get what I want
3. I mentioned Genesis once in class and the teacher gave me extra credit
6. I can count real good
5. I can....play guitar. And bass. And keyboards. and tuba. and sousaphone. And...I know how to hit a drum. And mandolin. and...kazoo. and sing. and...I know how to run.

Can I be considered intelligent?

EIDT: I also do karate (first degree black belt). Might that be useful in say..taking over America (or whatever it was that you were plotting...)?
EDIT: I spelled Edit wrong the first time^

You're in for misspelling Edit and your karate skillz could come in useful... or if not you could at least be my meat shield

well... ok, I would've waited a month or two and then attacked the Eastern Hemisphere, but I can't help it; I'm just a man.

But we could've utilized satellites to launch strategic nukes on highly populated areas in Europe and Asia (not so much Africa, as they're still in bad shape economically and militarily). Then we use careful diplomacy to convince various parties that some other country was responsible. Then, while they're ganging up on the scape goat, we blitzkrieg with nukes and aerial assault, setting up military bases in the conquered coastal countries we take first, and using their population and resources as a buffer against retaliation.

... if only you hadn't been ousted (dam buffalo penis)... we could plot for you to regain control of Central America perhaps...

May I humbly suggest an alternate strategy?...

First, take over the vineyards and buffalo ranches in any given area you wish to conquer.

Second, offer free glasses of wine and hors d'oeuvres of buffalo penises to those who join the great state of AR - I suspect the acceptance of a new ruler will be quick and encompassing, especially if you use a nice cabernet and AAA penises.

Third, move to the next area.

Fourth, repeat steps one through three.

Remember the golden rule of war, when conquering a hostile force ensure that the vineyards and buffalo ranches are not damaged.

My liege, I offer my neck and should you find my comments distasteful, please lop my head off.

Your humble servant, FP.

Long live Atomic Rooster!

Excellent, this could work... until we run out of buffalo, but for the time being you shall be made my Secretary/Minister of Buffalo Penis and Fine Wine Strategy

and yes, you can have a Cabernet

hmmm, yes he is an official member, though he is somewhat... expendable.

I'm keeping him for now as advisory staff (every king needs an adviser), though he won't have any decision making responsibilities.

Oh boy, I can be a meat shield. I've always wanted to use my intelligence just for that reason.

by no means evil, perse; no more evil than necessary surely... it's not like I'm going to have myself deified or anything...

are you volunteering for position as meat shield as well?

If it isn't evil, then I'm not in.

well, it does involve a one-sided nuclear war (maybe), potential for MASSIVE casualty rates, the invasion of Canada, infiltration of Central America (potentially through drug trafficking?), and a pyramid scheme

Perchance I could be the Court Jester!?

Or the Butcher?

But please don't put me in charge of the cheese,
