Superpowers are pointless ~ discuss

Heal people, get rich and then offer to tell people the secret to your success, for a modest price, but millions and millions will respond, so you sell them sealed and personally addressed letters that say "Do as I do". After a not inconsiderable time, fly to South America, conventionally.

I might even route through Indonesia and offload some superpower your way if you are willing to shout the first beer...

Actually, I have a minor superpower here which enables me to often not buy my round of beer without people noticing.

Back in the day we would buy rounds and after everyone started to get a little buzzed when my turn would come I would conveniently have to go to the washroom so next person would have to pay and it would go all around the table again until my turn. I'd end up paying ever 2nd or 3rd round and there were at least 8 of us!!

We all played tricks on each other, it was one of my brothers caught on to it, but never said anything about it until years later. Beer was very cheap back then, and we were all making good money.

When I play "rugby" with my girls we take turns running with the
ball and being caught. When my little one (3 but still wearing
18month-old clothes) has the ball and is about to be caught she
turns and gives us the super-hero look and "power-hands" says
"SUPER POWER" and we have to freeze while she gets away.

I've no idea how this started.

A truly charming image and an excellent contribution to the thread.
