Aside from being able to put up with me, the ability to break ANYTHING created by man or nature, having nagging down to an art form., being able to clog any toilet with the 30 feet or so of toilet paper she "needs", I would say her uncanny timing. Knowing the exact micro second to distract/interrupt you when you are at that critical point in fixing something (that she likely broke) that requires six hands/ precise attention/, and causes you to drop/break, slip &cut yourself or scratch the bluing or otherwise ruin the very thing you were trying to fix. The timing to call you on the cell phone the second you just finished waiting on the long checkout line at the store, to pick up a critically important item, & just got the key in your car door. Says "here take this" trying to hand you something when your hands are so full to start with, you are like an octopus juggling 12 bowling pins. After sitting together in a room for hours in silence as soon as you get one foot out the door to go somewhere, from 75 feet away, now she wants to talk. lastly the ability to remain completely silent during the TV commercials and speak non stop whenever the show starts and ANY character is saying a line, & then ask "what did they say"?

Did I mention cooking? To the others I get it she's standing over your shoulder & told you to type that, right?, You can keep your man cards.

I had to go back and look to see if I was the one that typed this.
 
You know, guys, reading through this thread so far makes me realize how much I miss being married.....ROFLMAO!:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D
 
Powers normal to women vs. superpowers

All women have radar that is uncannily accurate. If you put something in your pocket or slip it into a drawer, she comes from the other end of the house to say, "What have you got in your pocket" or "it's about time I tidied up this drawer."

"Hide Woman" - moves things and puts them where I can find them. Usually ends with me yelling in frustration, "What the hell happened to my so and so?" "Oh, I put it in the top of the closet so you could find it. Well, her heart is in the right place.

She can drive a car forward without it moving. Let's say we have both cars at church and want to caravan home. I wait until I see her wheels rolling, then I slide away very slowly so she can drop in behind me. Late at night with no traffic on the road. I drive slow as Christmas and make sure I catch every red light to give her a chance to catch up. I get to the interstate and go the minimum or less so as not to lose her. I have stopped out of sheer frustration on the interstate (no traffic at all) and backed up about 30 yards just to kill time. I mosey down the frontage road to the turn off and slide into the driveway. Then I start waiting. And waiting. And waiting. 15-20 minutes later she pulls in and says something like, "Wasn't the traffic terrible out there?"

She works.....hard. And always has something cheerful to say.

She has the ability to affect people deeply. 30 years ago she was a High School Special Ed teacher and when we run into her old students they still cry and say how much she did for them.

Perfect.....no. Amazing.....yes. I don't have good fortune, but fortunately I married her.
 
She has the ability to know what I need even before I think I need to do it. She can smell money in my pocket. And she is smarter then the GPS in my truck.
 
My wife's super power? She is kind and good. She is kind and good to everyone. She works in a field where some folks are very hard. She is kind and good. Yesterday I had to have surgery on my left-eye. She drove me all the way over (1.25 hours) and waited till all was done. She understood the medical terms and acted as my advocate as I simply didn't know squat about what was being discussed. When all was finished, she drove me home and fixed a supper that I felt like eating. Last night she saw to it that I got the drops in my eye correctly. This morning when I got up, she had already left for work. On the stove was a biscuit for me. She had also bought my favorite coffee and had it ready for me. Like I said, my wife is kind and good. And I thank God for her.
 
My Wife has super hearing. Her parents were both born deaf and met at a school for the deaf. I have often wondered if that has anything to do with her very good hearing. She once heard our phone ringing when we were out taking a walk and were probably close to 1/8th of a mile from the house. But then we do live out in the boonies and it is very quiet here to the point of making my ears ring.
So I gotta say, unreal hearing.
Peace,
Gordon
 
My wife has the uncanny ability of making the non-stick surfaces of pans dislodge in circular pin-prick fashion simply by repeatedly jabbing a stainless steel fork into them.

She did it most recently with a 10-inch $100.00 saucepan of mine.
 
Well, these days we are retired and she spends a lot of time with her iPad shopping on-line.

BUT, in the late 1990's her super power was day trading!! I had a small 401K where I worked. My company allowed me to do pick where I invested it. I handed it over to her with, "There isn't enough money in this account for us to retire for more than a year. Play with it." Five years later she handed back to me 550K and said, "Let us retire!"

I'm going to keep that woman forever!!! Nothing she will ever do will upset me........:)
 
YOU REALIZE I AM JOKING, OR THIS WOULD BE ABOUT THE EX.

How about blocking doorways? If ANYTHING has to be left on the floor like vacumes / garbage cans/ boxes, they must be left smack dab in the center of the doorway so you trip over them, or have to move them to get in/out, going on for almost 20 years now w/o sign of let up. "I moved your car keys so you wouldn't lose them". Being suspicious. Being asked what are you doing/where are you/ what's taking you so long? Cuz you know Chics can't keep their hands off old/ fat/ gimpy/ bald guys right

Three years ago, my wife lost nearly all her vision, yet amazingly, she can still "see" others in need much more clearly than I and demonstrate genuine compassion and offer encouragement.

Strangely, since losing clarity of vision, I have become much more handsome to her. What a coincidence.

My wonderful wife is the world's toughest wimp :)
Kids and dogs INSTANTLY love her.
 
Missus P&R Fan has lots of Superpowers.:eek:
Her sense of smell is uncanny. She can smell a leftover steak is going bad DAYS before it actually does.:rolleyes: And if I make my awesome chili, well, lets just say she reminds me of her exceptional olfactory abilities when we go to bed.:D
She can read my mind. Always knows what I'm thinkin'. (I guess most of the time it's pretty obvious).;)
She is a Super Spy. If I so much as LOOK for a second at a good lookin' Woman, she notices right away. I should probably have her do surveillance for me.
She calls herself a B.A. (Bad @&!). She retired 5 years ago and runs an E-Bay business so she's always home. She discovered it's kinda fun to ride the lawn mower on our 4 acres. I haven't mowed since.:D She also does the plumbing and electrical work. Good thing, cuz I'm never home and have no talent in those areas.
She can drive from the passenger seat. Will give me advice. I always remind her "I'm behind the little round thing".:D

Plus, at 53 she's still a looker.
I appreciate that one most of all.:cool:
Jim
