Prompted by [livejournal.com profile] steer: What is your super power? Your actual one, rather than what you'd like it to be.

Mine appears to be breast enhancement. Any small-breasted woman sleeping with me on a regular basis goes up a cup size or two. One went over the course of five years (starting age 25) from a large A to a D.

I must advertise this power more widely.

(With one exception, men sleeping with me appear to become straighter. Dammit!)

(Clarification: It does not make big ones bigger. Except one ex who went from DD to G. Whoops!)

I am Captain Equanimity. In time of crisis I can step into a phone box and emerge 30 seconds later totally unaffected by the situation. According to a couple of my friends about ten years ago, anyway.

It's a well known non-fact that a womans breast size increases in proportion to the size of the mans hands. Why do you think I like big tall men so much? :oP

I can locate small lost objects belonging to other people, usually with a high level of sarcasm. Sadly this does not extend to lost things belonging to me, which tend to just stay lost.

I can also convince people to have kinky sex, though this is more of a life-skill than a superpower.

Wow, super power number one sounds familiar in all of its details, save the sarcasm. Um, wait, mabye that is true, too.

As for the life skill ... I think I have the "convincing people to do things they would normally never consider" down, but perhaps applying it to get people to come watch duelling ukeleles has been a misapplication of its true powers ...

Smaller powers: keeping other people's toddlers happy (not my own); caffeine-powered giggling fits; ability to decipher to an extent written passages of any romance language whether I've learnt it formally or not.

Greatest power: video memory - I can reel off someone's precise words so long as I've been paying attention weeks after the fact - very useful in exams, very annoying if you're arguing with me.

I am Useless Trivia Man.

Important stuff, I forget. Useful stuff, I forget.

The largest swarm of locusts ever measured was in the Congo in 1959, and covered 8000 square hectares. I read that when I was 10, in the Reader's Digest Book of Facts.

...useless and inconsequential stuff, I remember.

Oi, that's my superpower, too! Except my retention is centered mostly around pop culture.

I can tell you everything about movies I've never seen. I can name 90% of people who recorded music in the 1980s. Etc.

From: [personal profile] karen2205
I was about to say I don't have a superpower, but I do:

1, I can juggle lots of balls (metaphorical balls!) - sometimes balls specially made just for me, things no one else can handle, I can deal with effortlessly. I even deal well when people throw more balls at me without warning.

2, I can run camps for other people's children - this is a special superpower - everyone runs away in terror when I tell them I can do this:-p

3, I am absolutely and completely unprovokable - this is a *very* useful superpower.

I can make bad songs, in perfect rhyme, spontaneously, on any subject. Afterwards I completely forget said song. (And my super hero/villainess name is "The Queen of Doggerel.")

I am Teflon Tom. Mud does not stick.

For some reason I am seen as:

  • being a nice person

  • having integrity



The net result is that if anything bad is said about me, nobody believes it, even if it's completely true.

Very useful, as I am in fact highly inventive and deeply vindictive.

I am the exact opposite!
People will believe the worst possible thing about me after looking at me just once.
In any police line up I will be picked as the guilty one regardless of what the actually guilt party looks like.
Old women pointing out the bag snatcher will make comments along the lines of "It's him officer" "but you said the thief was a small black man with one arm" "Yes, well, I mean just look at him! He HAS to be guilty of something!"
