Blue Laser Minion

From Homestar Runner Wiki

Blue Laser Minions are the foot soldiers of Blue Laser, an evil organization of evil that does evil stuff for few explored reasons. The minions are led by Blue Laser Commander, but they are always defeated by the Cheat Commandos.

Blue Laser minions wear blue bodysuits with the Blue Laser emblem on the chest, head visors, and blue patches on one arm. Just about every sentence they say ends in "sir", whether or not it is actually addressed to a superior (or a man, for that matter). Each one speaks in the same monotone voice, a reference to the fact that, to this day, many cartoons use only one or two different voices for generic footsoldiers. In more recent cartoons, this has been explained away by making all the soldiers robots programmed with the same voice, or clones of the same person, but in the '80s, viewers were expected to ignore the fact that every single member of various armies sounded exactly the same.

In the Cheat Commandos Commercial, six of them went to build and protect a radar dish, which Reinforcements destroyed, crushing all but one. On a second mission, two were sent to protect the Blue Laser mountain headquarters, where the Blue Laser Commander was planning to blow up the ocean. However, Firebert blew a part off the headquarters with explosives, crushing the two guards.
