The History of Operation Teabag [Butlers for Everyone]

September 2009

Booleus approaches Presidential Hopeful William Duncan with Operation Teabag and urges him to launch it immediately.
This campaign carries on privately for the next 2 months, with Booleus' only request that whenever the eUK is attacked,
it is coined Operation Teabag. Others prefer "Operation Tea and Crumpets" but Booleus persists.

November 2009

Booleus presents "Operation Teabag" to Jacobi and Derek Harland. During the DAL presidential candidate debates,
Booleus submits the question "If you are elected, will you undertake Operation Teabag" to the moderator for discussion.
He writes this article endorsing whoever will launch OTB.

Booleus' obsession with this continues for the next 2 months, as he intermittently changes his avatar to a teabag.

January 2010

The name "Operation Teabag" takes off and becomes the accepted term for invasion of the eUK after Booleus presents
"The case for proxy war with the eUK" to congress. This is the first success for Operation Teabag.
Booleus decides that a slogan is required for Operation Teabag and writes the article "Butlers for everyone"
Booleus trolls the eUK irc as usual and
incessantly asks GLaDOS to come back to the new world and become his Mr. Belvedere.

Late January 2010

Operation Teabag has been launched, yet, the formal slogan "Butlers for everyone" has not been formally nor informally accepted.
Booleus believes this slogan is a bit of genius.

Please make the official slogan of Operation Teabag "Butlers for everyone!"
