3	''[[http://askblofeld.tumblr.com Ask Ernst Stavro Blofeld]]'' is a fanmade Website/{{Tumblr}} CharacterBlog for [[Characters/JamesBondBlofeld Ernst Stavro Blofeld]], Film/JamesBond's archenemy. Although in continuity with the classic films, the blog is DenserAndWackier in tone, with a clear emphasis on comedy.

6	!!''Ask Ernst Stavro Blofeld'' contains examples of:
7
8	* AmplifiedAnimalAptitude: Blofeld's cat Volcano managed to seek out his master's [[TheDragon right-hand woman]] Irma Bunt and lead her back to the abandoned factory where Blofeld was trapped, just so Bunt could rescue him. It would be a stretch to have a dog do this, but a ''cat''?!?
9	* AristocratsAreEvil: Blofeld tries to [[InvokedTrope Invoke]] this trope by claiming the title of Comte de Bleuchamp. (Nobody believes his claims.)
10	* CardCarryingVillain: “I’m not just a soulless murderous monster — I’m a ''cat-loving'' soulless murderous monster.”
11	* TheComicallySerious: Irma Bunt is making no concessions to the weirdness of her situation and the constant whims of her lunatic boss, and keeps being the stoic, creepy boss. Due to how silly everything else is around here, this makes her into this trope.
12	* CutLexLuthorACheck: Blofeld is an expert at biochemistry and it is clarified that he single-handedly developed ''Film/OnHerMajestysSecretService''[='=]s Virus Omega instead of having some paid MadScientist create it.
13	* DeathbringerTheAdorable: Sure, he's very devoted to his master, but Blofeld's RightHandCat generally does little but sleep in his master's lap while Blofeld strokes him ominously. His name is Volcano.
14	* DenserAndWackier: Even at their silliest, the original James Bond films of the 60's and 70's, on which the blog is based, come nowhere near its wackiness.
15	* DiabolicalMastermind: The canon Blofeld is a TropeCodifier for this trope and even provide the page image, so ''obviously''…
16	* EvenEvilHasStandards: [[https://askblofeld.tumblr.com/post/164134173169/would-you-ever-consider-asking-hans-from-frozen-to When a fan asked]] if he would ever consider recruiting [[WesternAnimation/Frozen2013 Prince Hans]] as a member of SPECTRE, Blofeld flat-out refused, stating that he doesn't let ''cartoonish fools'' join the ranks, despite knowing how he manipulated Anna into a false romance so [[UnwittingPawn she could unwittingly hand him over Arendelle on a silver platter]]. And he already has a minion named [[Film/YouOnlyLiveTwice Hans]], so it would be confusing for him to know which Hans is which.
17	* EvilCripple: Blofeld lost the use of his legs after the explosion of his oil rig base in ''Film/DiamondsAreForever''. He compensates by using a high-tech wheelchair, complete with a grappling hook.
18	* FullNameBasis: If you're going to call him by his real name rather than "Number One", call him ''Ernst Stavro Blofeld''. Not Ernst Blofeld, and ''certainly not'' Blofeld. Only Bond does that.
19	* IfYouKillHimYouWillBeJustLikeHim: [[https://askblofeld.tumblr.com/post/159269399064/why-on-earth-didnt-james-bond-kill-you-instead-of Stated]] as the most likely reason why James Bond had Ernst Stavro Blofeld jailed instead of killing him. Although Blofeld suggests there might be an element of CruelMercy to it — indeed, controlling people behind the scenes is so fundamental to Blofeld's character that he doesn't take being brought down to just an inmate in a prison very well.
20	* LiteraryAgentHypothesis: [[invoked]] The classic Eon films are said to be fictionalized, but extremely close to the real events. The Daniel Craig reboot is the result of the producers being forced to make stuff up now that the real James Bond has retired and that Blofeld is in jail. As a result, it is completely wrong in terms of events and very inaccurate in terms of characters — Blofeld is particularly disgusted by his MotiveDecay.
21	* MagicPlasticSurgery: Used to explain the jarring examples of TheOtherDarrin in the film series.
22	* MeaningfulName: {{Averted}}; [[https://askblofeld.tumblr.com/post/159267661234/hahahah-your-name-means-blue-field-what-an as one fan sarcastically points out]], "Blofeld" just means "blue field", which has nothing to do whatsoever with anything Blofeld is or does.
23	* PlatonicLifePartners: Blofeld and Irma Bunt may qualify, depending on how you look at it. Both are functionally asexual and they are pretty much each other's only friend, but don't see each other as such, due to Blofeld being Bunt's boss.
24	* RetiredBadass: According to Blofeld, Bond has retired from the [=MI6=] just to become the warden of the prison where Blofeld is staying in.
25	* RetiredMonster: Forcibly retired, due to having been put in jail. Though there are occasional hints that he still has more contacts in the outside world than Bond thinks he does.
26	* RightHandCat: This Blofeld retains his film counterpart's trademark white Persian cat, here called Volcano.
27	* TakeOverTheWorld: Blofeld's lifelong goal. And we ''mean'' lifelong. He was already trying at age 10.
28	* TakeThat: To Blofeld's MotiveDecay in ''Film/{{Spectre}}''.
29	--> '''Ernst Stavro Blofeld:''' ”Such blatant ego-stroking as to think I built my entire criminal organization ''for the express purpose of hurting Mr Bond personally'' is vile slander that could only have come from Bond himself.“
