    I can put a bodywire in my jacket... without taking the jacket off!

    Admittedly, it takes me longer than just taking off the jacket would, and I look kind of odd, wandering around with one arm up the air, hopping a bit...

    I used to, but I hurt my ankle once during a basketball game in high school.

    Yourself?

    Easy to fix - you just need more tar...

    What exactly is a "hadoken"?

    Ah, that explains a few things.

    If you could have one superpower (besides flying, of course) to help you fence, what would it be?

    AKA D+F+P (down + forward + punch). This is the where DFP's name comes from.

    I can press my opponents blade, and then send a wave of plasmic force down my blade powerful enough to push my opponents blade off of mine and far away enough that I cant hit him.

    I have the ability to stand directly in the path of an oncoming blade and NOT MOVE OUT OF THE WAY OR PARRY.

    Of course, this means I get hit quite a lot. But it is my special skill, of which I am quietly proud.

    It was actually a rather pleasant conversation at the beginning there... granted, sonic boom super powers may be better discussed in the water cooler, but hey - at least everyone now knows what a hadouken is...

    ... because, clearly, none of us could live a full life without that bit of knowledge.

    no. noone can call their lives complete without being able to roll out a haduken.

    the physics of a shin-shoryuken on the other hand, is maybe a topic up for debate

    It's strange that all female super heroes are only allowed to wear skin tight suits that look almost like they're designed to "be sexy"!
    I'm so cool; put me in a fridge and it gets colder!
    I'm Australian and that makes me MANLY!

    I think it's just because the comics artists couldn't draw clothes, so it's easier to draw a naked body and color it in as if it were clothing.

    Or maybe they don't get out enough.
