I think the best ridiculous superhero power I've heard of (and I'm not quite sure who came up with this one) is the ability to change someone else's internal soundtrack. So if you get stuck on, say, a David Lee Roth song, the superhero could change it to something different. Not necessarily better, just different
My super power would be the psychic ability to have elevators always there when I want them, to have a parking spot wherever I need it and to be in the fastest toll lane. Life would be easy and in fact that would be my superhero name "Easy Man" and my sidekick would be Exact Change Boy.Or, a less boring alternative that most of us mere mortals use is EZPass (It's called FastLane in Boston and other things throughout the country.) I assume I'm one of those people who zooms by you in the cash lane and it saves an average of 10 minutes on each trip over a bridge. :-) One thing I really like about Dallas -- you can zoom thru those booths on the tollway doing 50+ -- we poor NY'ers have to slow down to 5mph or so.
As for easy parking... one can only hope they're planning on turning the Hudson and East Rivers into a covered lot soon, cuz I wouldn't hold my breath for a positive change anytime in the near future!. :-)
BTW, "Easy Man" has so many interesting connotations to those of cursed with overactive imaginations.
