You are now a Superhero

Sign in to disble this ad
Your name is your TB username.

What are your powers? (Ex.: Maki has the power to summon all Asian chicks in a 500 mile radius; Mark Wilson has endless fail; john turner has teh b&hammer of death etc.) Are you a good guy, villain, or do you not care? Do you wear spanex or stuff that reminds you of Rob Halford? Are you from some planet or here one earth? Any other stuff I haven't thought of you can add.

This is your assignment.

Me, I'd do the whole Batman thing, except with Thunder- infront of it. The Thunderphone is ringing, but I'd be an arsonist like Firefly.

Whoops.

I have the power of Great Apathetic Sarcasm. I can rob someone of their wills and dreams with just one breath.

The power to render men immobile by showing them pictures of me, and to disappear for months at a time.

I would use my powers only for good...

They're around... well, not in the newest thread because I come and go here. I feel guilty that I don't have my bass with me at school.

Yeah, you don't exist without them.

EDIT: Wait, did I just agree with username, or make a reminder of an unofficial TB rule?

I have the power to sit on my butt and drink beer. I will only use this power for good. You know, with great power comes great responsibility.

Your powers would be better if you could summon beers.

And bring them to me. That's another one of my powers... getting free booze from guys. Hahahahahah!

I guess that my username probably means that my power would be making people happy. However, I would only use my power for evil - like making people feel good about cheating on their wife or shoplifting.

There would be no spandex - I don't feel that it would be complimentary to my figure. I would have a big hat with a feather in it, and a Zorro-style mask, and an ankle length black coat which had a rainbow coloured lining, so that I could sweep it dramatically.

I'm human - I was bitten by radioactive bacon. Bacon makes everyone happy, right?

I can see the past, present and future.
In doing so, I show the evil the err or their ways and they redeem themselves.

-or-

During my life on earth, I turned the world on to the real reggae soul. I showed a nation and the globe how to stand up for your rights. My son carries on my dream.

So you're like a retired hero? You got any tips for an up-and-coming hero like myself?

I would say Thor has the power of the ban hammer since he is the god of thunder and all. JT has the power to simply pull the plug on your existence. Jive1, meanwhile has the pull my finger power. A force to be reckoned with.
