What superpowers do you have? Lighthearted thread.

Inspired by a few of the current threads and by a very old one I vaguely remember about being she-ra, what superpowers do you have...

I'll start...

Apparently I can perform telekinesis, my (now) exh said it was my fault his favourite beer glass got broken - I wasn't even in the room - he knocked it off the draining board.
I can also control the weather as if we were ever on a day out and the weather changed it was my fault (even if the change was not forecast at all).
I made the exhaust fall off our car -telekinesis again I suppose.
I am also all-seeing and all knowing as it was always my fault if he couldn't find anything - even stuff he brought into the house and I'd never seen.
I'm also telepathic as I should know exactly what time he is collecting the DC's or what time he expects them to be dropped off to him. He doesn't have to text me this info, I should know.

There are loads more superpowers I have but would like to hear what powers others have!

Semi-serious note, the blame thing that abusers use is mind-bending and draining, I thought this thread may help people see just how unreasonable and insane they really are. Sometimes it only sinks in when you write it down or read other's experiences.

Sorry for any typos. On my phone.

I have super nerves of steel, as I never get frightened, despite DS's best attempts.

I second spider sense. No explanation couldn't explain it but something isn't right. Now. The interesting thing is I told all my children about this "spidsy sense" and only my daughter got it. My son's thought I was barking. Still. I always told them phone me.if u are staying somewhere and something isn't right.you can't explain it you can't verbalize it...phone me. And only my daughter ever did. Something about her friends grandad. She couldn't explain it. No proof just something didn't feel right.

My super power is being able to supremely piss off people who are idiots/nutters, with surprisingly little effort on my part. I believe I developed this super power in response to the shenanigans of my narc mother and my schizoid father. I use this super power judiciously, and would never use it against people I like. Recently, I have found it comes in handy when MN is invaded by fuckwits Grin.

I think negatively about people or things, and bad things happen to them (for example, my workplace burned down when i told it to - next day it had gone).
I hear a voice that warns me about stuff.
I know things in advance, sometimes. Prediction.
I can find things by putting out my hand and asking for them. My hand is drawn to them.

I am a little concerned about the above. Blush Its omens and not Godly. I've been good most of my life but this last year I've left the straight path. I need to be good but I don't want to. Blush

Oh, and I can't use it to be generally helpful. I've tried, 'looking' for missing persons etc. I get mixed up messages. For example, a girl when missing. I sought. I saw the child in a tartan skirt, wearing a gas mask. Her body was found near a heating installation - not right at all but linked to gas. I've 'looked' for madeleine mccann. all I got was 'pink dress, drain, no shoes'. she was taken at night, what's the pink dress about?
so no, no major practical application.

'when' should be 'went'. sorry.

I have the power to make my husband invisible whenever my kids need something from a parent.
