Hey, what's your superpower?
What? You don't KNOW?

Check http://www.emode.com/tests/superpower.html to find out which superpower you can call your own!

They told me mine was "animal communication," putting me in the leagues of Aqua Man and the like. My cats are currently sitting in a row next to the computer, staring at me and laughing hysterically.

I can't complain about my test results. I tested positive for Super-Speed. And the test software didn't even ask me if I grew up in Speedway, Indiana, USA (yes) or if I was wearing a Flash t-shirt when taking the test (yes).

*Irving, who has been here all along, slowly resolves into view* Apparently, I'm a chameleon! Which means that I could be anyone and everyone you meet! You wouldn't even know!

~Irving

Apparently I'm invisible. So technically you shouldn't be able to read this. I don't *feel* invisible...

Strange, 'coz I'm invisible, too. It's okay by me as long as people don't start making comments like "I can see right through you..."

Now, does this mean I can start sneaking around wherever I want??

I got chameleon firat time, but then I tried again and I got invisibilty. Invisibility would make more sense; I'm rubbish at accents and remembering people's names, which would be useful, I assume, for chameleons.

Thing is, if I close my eyes and concentrate on invisible things, how do I know if I'm invisible?

My superpower is making other people calm down. The bad thing about it is that I have a lot of quite nervous friends who often come to me when they are particularly upset (what is not a negative thing per se), but, worst of all, I'm in constant company of myself (for more that 20 years now), so that I'm practically as calm as a stone or a sea (when there is no wind, of course). Anyone has a recipy against this superpower? I tried Kryptonite, but it doesn't seem to work...

Mine's Super Speed (raucous laughter from all who know me).

Mine's communicating with animals, just like I thought it would be.

EmirTR- a solution for your problem. Actually, I am not sure just what your problem is... are you tired of being around yourself, or are you tired of others being around you!??

And by the way, I also a chameleon.... ooooooo... so I will try my best to utilise my intricate knowledge of human behavior to come quickly to your aid!!!

How do you like THAT!??

You realize, of course, that all of these cameleons could be the same person posting over and over again... with new identities!

~Irving?

Hmmm...my problem in clear terms is that I don't have a problem. Or something like that. Or even when I have a problem I don't worry really, I'm just calm clam calm. Maybe it has something to do with calmaleonts or what the heck they're called...So my superpower of making people worry less about their problems becomes my problem, because I don't have anything else to worry about. Sounds complicated - and it IS.
By the way, before writing this I didn't worry about this kind of problem...

Well, my REAL superpowers are as follows...

I can eat my weight in Ding-Dongs...

I can change red stop lights to green by looking at them...

And I have "Super B.O."

(Cheers to all who got the Space Ghost Reference!)

But according to the test, I have X-Ray Vision. Hmmm... I was wondering why everyone always walked around naked all the time...

-John

I have the power of Premonition.
I knew all along....

Space Ghost reference has been duly gotten. (I love that show.)

My power is that of Super Speed! Not hugely surprising, given that I walk faster than most anybody.

Oh, and I also have the power of eating as much as I want and not gaining weight. (I am sensing envy...great envy...)

That's part of your super speed. Like you, your metabolism is super fast!

Ah, that explains it. Now that I think about it, I'd actually need a super metabolism to sustain my super speed.

Exactly. I mean, have you ever seen the flash gain weight?

No, not really...

But, come to think of it, I don't think any superheroes have ever been shown eating. (Not that my experiences with the field have been too numerous...)

Also, plenty of exercise would burn the fat. And superheroes get a LOT of exercise.

I've seen Batman eat. Or, more accurately, I've seen Bruce Wayne eat. Clark Kent (Superman) doesn't need to eat often, but he does to keep up appearances. I think those scenes get left out, though, as eating isn't exactly the action an editor is looking for in a comic book that will sell.
