I think I'm a superhero because... What's the most hilarious/unorthodox reason you can think of that you might be a superhero?

Awkward Powers Activate!

My awkward powers can calm the anxieties of those around me. My social disabilities can sometimes be so terrible that my friends or peers who are equally awkward, will watch me fail at a human interaction so badlly that they gain the bravery points necessary to finish and/or patch up the mess I started.

It's like I delve soooo far into my head, trying not to screw up the conversation that all the brain cells necessary for proper human communication is forced out of my head for the taking. For example:

Me: Hi um can I um please have the uh, oh...oh wait no- okay can I um have combo number 2 instead- I mean... okay wait between combo 2 and combo 5 which do you think is better?

Cashier: huh?

Friend:...

Me: *in a quieter less confident voice* betweencombonumber2and...actuallynevermindI'lljusthavecombo1.

Cashier: Um... sorry I missed what you said...

Friend:...

Me: *covers face* Sorry, I mean-

Friend (with the boosted power-up effect of my social incapabilities):

She'll have a small size combo #1 please, with a Nestea.

Me: Yeah that.

I wish I was exaggerating, but this^ happens almost everytime you find a TaiSensei in the wild- I mean- in public.
