Chapter 2, Misadventures: A Brief History of the Ministry of Blerp
The Ministry of Blerp was formed in 1987 by a group of rogue bureaucrats who sought to revolutionize the way paperwork was done. Led by the enigmatic and feared Director Blerp, they set out to streamline the process, eliminate redundancy, and create a more efficient system of inefficiency.
However, as the years went by, the Ministry of Blerp became infamous for its Byzantine processes, Byzantine bureaucracy, and its love of Byzantine paperwork.
- Byzantine Process 1: The infamous "Blerp-ification" of the filing system
- Byzantine Process 2: The creation of the Blerp-ometer, a device that measures the exact amount of Blerp-ness in any given document
