HEY! That's my dream!
Nah..but Next is one of his pretty underrated movies. He can see 2 minutes into the future.
Nooooooo, you've turned my apples brown. You monster!
Hope you don't get involved in a duel.

You guess one, he guesses none.
Unless you're Andrew Jackson.
Yeeeeah...on that note, if you like starfruit (carambola), be careful if you're taking blood pressure medication. It can amplify/extend the effects of those meds...

I actually just rolled a character for a Marvel Tabletop game. I picked my first two powers, but didn't really care for anything else, but the rule is you start with 3. So we randomly rolled for my third power. I don't remember the exact name, but it's basically:
- Emotion Push
I can heighten or lower a certain emotion that someone is experiencing. If they're happy I can't make them sad, but if they're angry I can make them VERY angry.
I'm actually not even sure I can lower it.
Anyway, it's not useless, but it sure as hell isn't prime pickings.

Reminds me of rolling characters for GURPS. To get extra points, I'd take some disadvantages, and my first go-to disadvantage was Odious Personal Habits (-5). But there were some real doozies if you were really wanting to minmax. Suddenly Minmax from the Goblins comic giving up his ability to rhyme for an extra skill point sounds positively mundane.

Oh good, now Fade can make everyone not like it, either.
William H Macy stars in a movie about that. He's a person paid to make people become unhappy and unlucky at casinos by one of the Baldwins.

Pretty much this. Any time RPG'ing if my character wasn't going to be one of the main heroes, comic relief was always nice.
And I meant the "Well, ok then" to represent that I was accepting of this, followed by a pause and slight shrug and a return to what I was doing.

I want the power to do the slow motion "Nooooooooooooooo" leap, complete with the extra deep voice.[DOUBLEPOST=1413861850,1413861692][/DOUBLEPOST]Also, ever since I was a kid, I thought it would be really cool but ultimately useless to open outwardly swinging double doors telekineticly.
Retractable claws. I would waste the HELL out of these, scratching up the walls, picking my teeth, and in years time they'd be useless.
Which is why I'd get puma style claws, more natchy and easier to adapt to.
The ability to know the most efficient way to get anywhere. Always take the best route in a car or instantly know which flight will be the best to take.
The ability to reach into my pocket and to pull exactly as much money as I need at any time (it appears from nowhere), but only for thing you would actually pay for in cash. So I could go out and pay for dinner at a nice restaurant, but I couldn't go out and get a car. Clever uses might include paying a ransom on the spot and always paying exactly 15% on tips.[DOUBLEPOST=1413921455,1413921403][/DOUBLEPOST]
Oh geez, I'd love that with my allergy problems.
