J.L. and I were talking yesterday about X-Men, who knows why, and the subject of mutants with useless powers came up. I made the comment that it would be my luck to get a power that was completely useless when it came to fighting bad guys. He laughed and said, “You mean like having the power to grow furniture out of your butt?” I said, “Exactly! Or the power to hurl terrifying wads of used facial tissue at your enemies.”
My wife said that I could always have the useless power of creating flatulence. I’m not sure, but I think that was more a comment on my current abilities than a thought for mutant powers.
What would your useless mutant power be?
