Where can I get some minions?

I need some to wash my dishes and clean my apartment. I've always wanted some minions to do my bidding. Where do you find them?

I'm not terribly ambitious; I don't need them for total world domination. I'm too lazy for that. I'd just like a few to do the things I hate to do. And maybe do my Christmas shopping. I hate that.

I don't know your orientation, but wives are easier to come by.

growing them.

I had a garden last year.

The minions didn't do as well as the scullions and carats, though.

I'd be more worried about you becoming your cat's minion.

So I think I may be on the shit end of that stick.

If you want to come to my house and eat out of a metal bowl and crap in the backyard, we might be able to work something out.
