Super power - So what if it's a cliche? I still want to fly!
Smarter than...hmmm. 15 years ago, I was smarter than everyone else around me (or so I thought.) I keep losing brain cells as I get older (or so I think, anyway)so there are days I feel I'm not smarter than anyone out there. Even Dubya.
Gender conflict. It's not sex, or the toilet seat. It's the fact that guys can remember columns upon columns of, say, baseball statistics - but never manage to remember, say, birthdays. And women don't think a recitation of baseball stats in lieu of a birthday rememberance makes the day a 'special one.'
Height. I want an extra six inches. And no, not the mythological "six inches."
Cynicaliscious said...
Superpower: To let my steely gaze cause offensive cretins to burst into flames.
I am so much smarter than the average bear.
greatest conflict between genders: I would have to say that the definition of cleanliness is the primary conflict - both personal and spacial.
Height: I actually wanted to shrink a few inches. Perfectly happy where I am, thank you.
Esiotrot said...
Super power- Breathe underwater
I am much smarter than Jonah
Greatest conflict between the genders:
Him: Let's do it and feel closer
Her: Let's feel closer and do it
A-okay with current dimensions
1. X-ray vision. Who would want anything else?
2. Mick Jagger.
3. Who is supposed to pay at the end of the date.
4. No less than six more inches

Hypotheticals: If you could possess one super power, what would it be? Super fast because who wouldn't want to be able to vibrate their fingers at super speeds?
Anything Goes: Fill in the blank- I am so much smarter than the average bear.
No-Brainers: What is the greatest conflict between the genders? That god-damn toilet seat!
Personals: How many inches would you increase your, um, height by? I'm not really sure about the whole 'by' thing but adding any more inches would make it hard to fit anywhere...
Punky Brewster said:
Super Power: Telepathy, mind games. Move things with my mind.
Smarter than: Haha, everybody is smarter than me.
Greatest gender conflict: "Little" things. Women see them, men don't.
My height is fine. My weight is not.
Salsa said:
Super Power - mind control. The ability to bend people to my will.
Anything goes - I am so much smarter than many of my supervisors.
No Brainers - The greatest conflict between the genders? Sex and what it all means.
Personals - I wouldn't increase my height. I'm happy right where I am.
smithee said...
Superpower: "Motherlode". If you get this, you'll know who I am. If you don't, oh well!
I am SO much smarter than, well almost everyone. ;)
Greatest conflict between the genders? The "say what you mean and mean what you say" issue.
I would add three inches. Just 'cause.
Smug said:
Super power: I'd like super-strength. That would come in handy in my everyday life.
I am so much smarter than...Kelly Bundy from "Married, with children"
Greatest gender conflict: Men use love to get sex, women use sex to get love.
Height: Well, in order to be more height/weight proportionate, I'd probably need to grow at least 5 more inches. Or so.
I am so much smarter than.... I was 15 years ago
The way sex complicates things. Makes it near impossible for members of the opposite sex to "just be friends."
I have never had a desire to be taller.
Very interesting. How did all these people I don't know peg me? Who's been lurking?

Okay. I got two, counting me. Anyone for Candy Land?
Posted by: Vicki | August 17, 2005 at 01:29 PM
I'm gonna go first as I'm playing, but not to win. I tried not to cheat, but I had a bit of an advantage as I was monitoring the comments long before I should have peeked. Next round, I'll curb my curiousity. Besides, we all know that I have my ways of getting a copy of that mix from Jim. ; )
My guess:
AnneFitten is Gatsby?
Betsy is Playmate??
Bob is MM... maybe, cuz of the whole x-ray vision thing
Bonnie is Fricka-- the whole soundtrack to her life thing
Brian is Salsa- his give away? Being smarter than his superiors
Cameron is Pat?
Jane is Smug...well, I don't think so, but the request for super strength made me think it was her so she could knock out the next mother of a student who feels it's appropriate to "poke" her in the chest
Jim is brain-e-ack? Oh, I know I'm never gonna live this one down if I don't guess right
LouLou! is Punky Brewster? Only because I swear she made some reference to PB at one time or another. Perhaps I dreamed that one? Yes, LouLou! I just outed myself...you are the stuff of my dreams. ; )
Marian is sooo smithee because of the clue she gave of "Motherlode"... I cheated and googled to find out the connection with Sims
Monty is Cynicalicious-- I've been reading her long enough to know that this has got to be her
Snidget is Jcrew girl-- I know Ms Snidge is a shameless clothes-horse and a subscriber to the Jcrew catalog
My guess for Vicki is Esiotrot as it is tortoise spelled backwards (thank you, thank you very much) and she and I once had a fascinating IM conversation about the difference between a turtle and a tortoise.
Oh, and I'm yumyum : )
