I like this one:

And in a far different proposal, the mayor of the Atlanta suburb of Stonecrest, Jason Lary, said his city would use 345 acres of industrial land to create a new city called Amazon. Bezos would be its mayor for life, Lary said.

I wonder if they'd be willing to make the title heritable. It's not often these days that you get an offer to become a feudal lord.
