really crappy super powers


Jenners turned me onto a Tweet page called "Crap Super Powers" . P.S. : I don't Twitter, so don't go askin' to follow me or anything...but I found the concept hilarious.

I already have one useless super power which would be turning my food into poop (though I'm sure my colon loves that one!), but mine isn't nearly as funny....or as useless....as some of these that others came up with:


*The ability to squirt ketchup out of the tips of your fingers, but only when underwater

*Ability to fly, but only downward

*The ability to produce beautiful poetry, but only when attending a cockfight

*The ability to smell unscented candles

*The uncanny ability to turn one pound of chocolates into 5 pounds of butt fat

*Having the power to disguise yourself as an ant but only when in the company of George Clooney

*The ability to sort your recyclables with 100% accuracy

*The ability to convert other types of pencils into #2 pencils

*Being able to time travel but only to 1942 Germany

*The ability to turn nouns into verbs

*The ability to stare out the window at a bird without moving for an hour

*The ability to hear someone thoughts but only when they're thinking about Richard Simmons.

*Able to transform into a Cheetah --with broken ankles

Oh please tell me you laughed at some of those!

Then please tell me you'll comment about what crappy super power you wished (or didn't wish!) you had! It would totally make my Wednesday! :)

I am really thinking on this one, and I am drawing a blank. I'll try again later.
Maybe thats my crap power...to be relativly witty, but only that wrong time. Like when I went it hysterics and couldn't stop laughing during my dads second wedding. Yikes!

I have the ability to think up the perfect insult, seven seconds after the person I was going to rip has left the room!

Susie said...

My ability to create a useful spreadsheet in 2.5 seconds:-) Hee, hee, hee.

I have the uncanny ability to levitate dirty socks, however I lose it when in the presence of a clothes hamper.

I cannot come up with anything remotely clever...because the visual I have of Richard Simmons is overtaking my brain.

I need a super power to counteract that.

Maybe...
Billy Mays. He could take Richard.

Eye-yi-yi...
those two in my head. Kill me now, please.

No worries on topics or meaning. I write about what I know. And like you somethings are prevalent in my mind lately. I stand guilty of the crimes of which I am accused as someone else may be. But we can learn from our mistakes.

I write for me and sometimes to others with the hope that my work may help others also.

Sorry you have such material spurring your inner muse, but this to shall pass.

I think I'll try not to think so much now.

Best wishes for peaceful moments,

I have the power of quickly rearranging first consonants to make others chuckle, example:

Dot Hog (hot dog)
Nicken Chuggets (chicken nuggets)
Cherry Mistmas (Merry Christmas)
Bair Hush (hair brush)

Yes, I do believe this is a super power, or maybe I'm just really talented, either or.

I have a couple...

1) The ability to only buy cars that break down.

2) The ability to have your mind go completely blank. But only when you need to remember something.

3) The ability to know who's calling your phone before you pick it up

PS. Caller ID has totally ruined my 2nd Super Power, therefore making it "crappy". Everyone appears to have this one these days. :(

Rich said...

ok. so it wasn't a "couple" it was a "few"

Lizzie said...

I have the ability to hide the eyes on the back of my head, specially when my boys look for them. (and they do try to find them moving my hair around and digging in there)

Trish said...

The ability to laugh loudly at other people's crappy super powers without them knowing it.
