If you can't I suppose I could just tell you:There's a new ratings, and it's Psychic Powers. Current favourite line:

[Edited to wonder aloud whether it's correct to say "There is a new ratings", because whilst "ratings" is plural, it's actually referring to a group of things.] [This message has been edited by Maverick (edited September 10, 2001).] IP: Logged |

I'll contend that this is one of the best reviews that's come down the pike in awhile. I especially like the bit about getting killed by the toy bear at KB. A friend of mine in college claimed to have the metal power to make people leave a room if he silently focused on them. This seems as though it'd come in handy, although there are less strenuous ways to accomplish this than training your mind for years and years. Not showering is one such way, for example.

we enjoy this rating, pyrokinesis was just a tad low, but what do we know?
all concidered, this rating gets an A+IP: Logged |

I knew a guy at university who claimed he could cause clouds to break up with the power of his mind. He'd concentrate for a while, then a bit later point at a cloud that was breaking up, and then say "Look, I made that cloud break up!" Then we'd point out that clouds are perfectly capable of breaking up themselves without any help. Weirdo.IP: Logged |

I have psychic powers too. I'm telelethargic. It means I can make things not move with my mind. Watch that fax machine over there.*concentrates* See? Totally immobile. ------------------

Hilarious. I esp liked his take on pyrokinesis, where he admitted you'd pretty much have to turn into a psycho.I'm wish my Lean Pockets were safe. ------------------

I think Pyrokinesis would be an endearing quality, once controlled. Especially if you could replicate that bird-dog-backed-up-against-an-electric-fence look, like the kid in Firestarter. I would never have to bu a Bic again!IP: Logged |
