**Mr. Smith** , I notice you haven’t stopped by the actual MMP lately. (Yes, we take attendance.)

I’m afraid this will make you ineligible for the MMP Retirement Plan. Apparently all the villainy you’re perpetrating in that henchperson thread has made you lose sight of the long-term picture: stability, being spoiled in our old age; they’re all much more important than world domination.

😛

**jsc1953** , we’re [over here](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=366740). Hop in; no need to read the whole thing.

Indeed. It’s become a bit of an obsession. :biggrin:

Hush, **Ya** --you know we don’t talk about his troubles in front of company and such!

MMP stands for More Military Police–they’re new to the Dope. If you haven’t seen any around, you must be blind! (haw)

Things were getting out of hand in the Pit, so Cecil and **Tubadiva** thought that a show of force would help. They recruited **swampus** and **spatialrift** and **Bumbazine** among others to be their “helpers”.

Piss them off at your peril.

**spats** has the whole physics of it figgured out and **Mr Bus Guy** is the getaway driver!

We female Dopers, we --what exactly do we do, anyway? Hmmm…
