I swear I'm not bossy in any other aspect of my life - it's just on set.
One of the most remarkable aspects of the occupation of Japan and Germany was the relatively free hand the occupation forces enjoyed in imposing policy on the conquered country. This was especially dramatic in the case of Japan. There, the occupying forces wrote a new constitution for the country and essentially handed it down to the occupied with little local consultation in ways that are quite astonishing today for their radicalness and their dictatorial quality. In Germany the occupying forces had the luxury of postponing national elections for three years giving them precious time to purge the old guard and reestablish order before putting the new political system to the test.

I will it, I order it, let my will stand for a reason.
We have to remember that Putin was a member of the KGB. He has already demonstrated that kind of macho, dictatorial attitude. Russia has breached their pledge to uphold the Olympic charter. This is a great opportunity for the IOC to say we cannot, given the situation that exists currently, allow the Olympics to take place in Russia.
Seeking to ban things is as bossy as you can get.
I would hate people to think bossy is all I can do.
People who try to boss themselves always want (however kindly) to boss other people. They always think they know best and are so stern and resolute about it they are not very open to new and better ideas.
I know I always look like the evil one bossing the band around in 'Scrubs' - well, I'm the same in real life too.
Steve Jobs had his critics. Some saw him as an egomaniac, and others, as a control freak.
There is no human problem which could not be solved if people would simply do as I advise.
