    Hi, my name is Cara and I have 2 especial super powers:

    1. I can hear and recognize pretty much any song playing in a supermarket/store/crowded restaurant.

    2. While I may not have BIlbo's ring, I still manage to look loads younger than I really am. I attribute this not only to spending the last 25 years avoiding the sun/tanning like poison, but also to my adolescent tendency of banging on about music and bands I love...and Star Wars.

    Greetings!

    My real name is not Molly, but it will have to do. :)

    My super powers are:

    According to my kids and the kids in the school library - I've mastered the mum glare. It stops any misbehaviour in its track.
    According to my husband - I never grow up (yay!)
    According to my friends - I have awesome google fu.

    Secretly, I wish my superpowers were to be able to make Lasagna and nutella calorie free.

    (ps. Feel free to send any invites my way.)

    Hey guys. My name's Kelly, and I like games and math. So, yep. I'm 23 and I have a lot of weight to lose, and I've signed up to several weight loss sites and even made a Tumblr for it. I wanna be a success story, dammit!

    As for my superpower... I'm a robot master. And I'll kill you if you're made by Dr. Wily. *nods*

    Hi I'm Kristi and my superpower is obscure nerd jokes. I was quite proud of my highly rated comment on digg several years ago. It was an article on Microsoft having its own branded soda. My comment (drumroll...): "The first 6 versions had no tabs." Get it? You know, the big change from IE6 to IE7? Yeah, I was a web developer.
    Also, my license plate says "AFK".

    Hi, gang !

    I'm Mary Ann ......

    I have the ability to hold my breath for a very long time ....... which comes in handy after my husband shows off his superpower ....... to turn thin air into copious amounts of noxious fumes !

    I also have the ability to annoy the heck out of him in seconds flat ........ whenever he wants to watch the Military Channel, I'm already hogging the TV with Dr. Who, Torchwood, Walking Dead, Stephen King, Farscape, Stargate, Chronicles of Narnia, LOTR, Harry Potter, etc, etc :heart:

    Peace !

    Hello good people of the Geek Squid. Paul here and my super powers are numerous and utterly useless. They are, in no particular order:

    - Being British and all that comes with it (cuing skills, tutting/newspaper rustling in tense situations, a general sense befuddlement, a posh evil villain style accent etc).
    - The ability to geek the hell out about movies, super heroes, fitness and cooking.
    - The ability to suddenly and inexplicably increase my weight the second I get to my goal weight and think about whether it's safe to eat a bag of M&M's again.

    The list goes on and on and on!

    I finally found you! My people!

    My name is Kylene and my super power is being able to look at a mess and not see a mess -- I see the organized bliss that is hiding underneath. Someday I'll be able to help other people with my powers. Until then, my back-up plan is being good at anticipating what people around me are going to need. I almost always know where my husband's belt, keys, and wallet are located and I can anticipate what my boss and coworkers are going to need. My kryptonite, unfortunately, is excessive amounts of stress, which is when my skills are needed the most.

    Geek Squid! Message Board. Well hi.
    May as well be upfront, this iGirlAndroid character is a weird one. A geek to the core, random and marching to the beat of a different gadget-sized vacuum powered drum machine. Clearly so, as she's already referred to herself in the third person.

    In all seriousness, I just simply have an odd sense of humor. In regards to my superpower... one word. Metamorphose. It covers every answer I debated on when I saw the question. ^_^

    Hi!

    My super power is... indecision! Hahaha. And flying. Telekinesis would be cool, but I've been a fan of flight for much longer so I must stay loyal.

    I've been a heavy fantasy/sci-fi reader since ever. I also like girly domestic things like sewing, knitting, and baking. Horribly awkward sitcoms (Peep Show, The Office, Arrested Development, Parks & Rec, etc), and anime with good plots and/or fun characters are my visual entertainment preferences.

    That's all for now. :)

    P.S. Truck loads of points if anyone knows what my username is from. It's kind of obscure, though. You probably don't know it. [/hipster]

    My name is Josh, and my wife calls me a social camillion, because I have moved so many times, and have changed who I hang out with and what music I listen to. I have something in common with just about everyone. But truth be known, I am a geek inside!
    My arch enemy is spelling. I can know that I spell something wrong, but not know how to spell it correctly. LOL.

    Also,

    I don't always speak in incomplete sentences, but when I do
