    Many days I think songbirds have more interesting things to say than humans do.

    I have difficulty with modern fashion and want to design my own clothes based on historical designs, from anywhere between early medieval clothing and styles from the past decade.

  • Your Next Evil Overlord says:

    No matter which of my world domination plans I end up enacting, it will involve catapults. Catapults are just that cool.

    My skin is photosynthetic. I love how I feel on a diet of sunshine–the downside is that when I get sunburned I turn green.

  • Albert says:

    I realized that I was a mutant when I learned that not everyone could tell someone’s exact shoe size by hearing them sing.

  • The Fictive Florist says:

    My super power is to turn fake flowers into real ones and vice versa. It’s handy when the super villain’s evil plans hinge on floral arrangements, or when they suffer from acute pollen allergies.

    When encountering hanging lamps, I have to fight the impulse to push them and start them swinging. More than once I have been temporarily blinded when I have failed to restrain myself.

    When the kids ask me what I’m giving them for their birthdays I always tell them something ridiculous, like skunk perfume or porcupine hair sweaters.

  • Cube says:

    Sometimes I pretend that the world is full of square pegs with square holes, and it’s the round pegs that don’t fit in.

    I believe that my hair has superpowers and goes off to fight crime when no one’s looking.

    I like to spread out when I eat, so at restaurants, I tell the hostess we have one more person than we do

    I like to catch cicadas, tie thread to them and fly them around. Cicada flying is fun.

    When changing lanes, I try to avoid the lane divider bumps. If I don’t drive over any, I win!

    • Carson says:

      I only will eat when food is not touching on the plate. Gravy has to be separate, not on the food.
