I could go on and on. (Actually, I really couldn't.....as I had to look up most of these "powers" on Wikipedia.)
The question at hand is, "What is the Most Useless Super Power?" Looking at that list above and even thinking of ones not on that list, I think I have the answer.
You might guess any of the following, Wonder Woman - An invisible jet....really? And bullet proof bracelets do you no good if you can't get the bracelet to block the bullets. Robin - What does he really do? However, by pure proximity to the Bruce Wayne fortune, I guess he has the same "powers" as Batman. Aquaman is probably a strong candidate for worst super powers. I mean, have you ever been swimming in the ocean and just wished you could communicate with that fish you saw? Do fish have anything interesting to say? I can't imagine they do.
No. The most useless super power is my wife's new pregnancy "super power" of.......wait for it..........her heightened sense of smell.
She came up to me and gave me a hug yesterday as I was working on the computer and proudly proclaimed (after she took a big whiff of my arm), you didn't shower today did you? Later that same evening she came home and opened the door to the ManCave and shouted, "I could smell dinner all the way from the garage!" She couldn't have been prouder. She seems to be sniffing quite a bit more than usual lately. It's getting to be quite comical.
All I can imagine now is that Superman and all the other heroes from the Hall of Justice are off on an adventure trying to find some bad guy. They are at the entrance of a cave which they don't dare go in..... Superman's X-ray vision won't work against these particular rock walls. They don't know what to do. They wonder aloud, "I wish we had someone with super smell who could tell where the bad guy is in this cave, or if he is even in this cave at all." If they only knew my wife.
My wife......the Super Hero.
I might need to think of a new Super Hero name for her.
Hilarious...Darin is dead serious! At one daycare center we visited, I could smell pee from the parking lot. I almost suggested not even going in, but, we'd driven a ways, and we had an appt, so, I felt bad. I mean, I understand there are going to be smells associated w/ these places, but, you shouldn't be able to smell diapers from OUTSIDE the building!
ReplyDeleteHahahaha SO Funny!! At least your not smelling stank night before booze breath and lingering cigs on Dunit every morning.....jus' sayin'! lmao!
ReplyDeleteSO HILARIOUS!!! Yes Em, be very thankful!! That goes along with no forced trips huhot or the china buffet! LOL
DeleteA better super power is to be able to turn your smelling sense off...at least per my wife.
ReplyDeleteEWWW...so true! I'm very lucky and grateful. D-unit smells good AND gives me a say in where we eat. Gen, I don't know how you did it!
