At dinner:
Caitlan: "What superpower would you be bummed to suddenly wake up with?"
My son: "Stretchy eyes, like a slug. I could see around corners. The worse thing would be if you couldn't bring them back into your skull."
Caitlan: "Or X-ray vision, but nothing else. What could you really do with it?"
My son: "Or the power to talk to goldfish! With three-seconds of memory, it'd be like: 'What's your name?' and the fish would say 'Sherbert.' And then you'd say, 'Your name is Sherbert?' And the fish would say, 'It is?'"
Caitlan: "Or telekinesis of only very small things. You'd be so frustrated that you couldn't say 'Come here, backpack!' but you could say 'Come here post-it notes!'"
Me: "I'd hate to find out I had one stretchy toe. My supervillain alert would be: 'Evil is afoot!' Wait a moment while I take off my shoe."
Caitlan added "Weak Gecko Powers." stuff would stick to your fingertips but you wouldn't be able to climb walls.
