WIN 20 SBD - 2 Sentence Catch 22 SuperPowers Contest # 4 (Original Contest)

in #contest7 years ago (edited)


This is the last week for this SuperPower Theme, next week a new theme will be introduced for another fun contest.



Who doesn't love superpowers? Wouldn't you want to have one? But what if they came with a catch, a controversial aftereffect? Can you come up with a cool superpower with a major setback? I always want to keep Steemit interesting and introduce contests and engaging creative opportunities that I want to see here in our thriving, growing diverse community. I don't have much to give, but it's always important to give back, whether we have a little or a lot. So let's run, swing, fly and batmobile to it!



RULES

What kind of Catch 22 SuperPower can you describe and write within a two sentence frame? In order to be a valid entrant, please be sure to follow my other profile @peacemaker, up vote this post and resteem it and Submit your 2 sentence Catch 22 SuperPower below in the comments section for it to be a valid entry. I am making this a weekly contest, and will rotate out some different contests as well. The deadline to submit is Sunday July 16th, 2017 at 11:59pm Germany time, so anyone entering on Next Monday will not be a valid entrant. One entry per person so give it your best shot. There are no length restrictions to a sentence as long as your two sentences are grammatically structured and readable. Don't rush, take your time, and check for spelling mistakes as it might ruin my experience reading your Catch 22 SuperPower on the first time through. Winners will be announced Monday.




That should give you a more than enough time to think up something creative with an unforeseen , detrimental or even funny twist. I look forward to being entertained by your endless and limitless ideas of imaginative super capabilities.*




The winner will be announced on Monday, have fun brainstorming



Thank you for reading this post in its entirety, I hope you enjoyed it for what it's worth.

My very own wonderful gif logo provided to me by the generous and kindhearted @papa-pepper Thanks again very much!

Sort:  

The ability to seduce anyone, the downside being the loss of one's soul. A very real and ever-present danger.

Thanks for your seductive soul stealing entry, however please follow all of the rules in order to be a valid entry, thank you

Apologies. I hope I have it right this time.

Thank you I have added your entry to the list on the most recent contest post.

Thank you for the honorable mention.

I must say verbal D is hardly fitting. Such eloquence I've seldom noted here on Steemit.

Thank you very much, I appreciate your kind words. Verbal D is what my fellow lyricists and Hip Hop emcees call me, and I am happy with the moniker :)

You are most welcome, I just posted the new themed contest. Feel free to participate and have fun

The ability to stop time for a few seconds time but you also stopped your heart for that same amount of time. There is high potential to die from a stopped heart, however you can also do a lot of cool stuff by manipulating people and things while time has stopped.

Thank you for your unique and cool entry, however please read all of the rules and once you have followed them, I will gladly accept your entry as valid, to be considered eligible for winning. The rules clearly state you must up vote, resteem and follow my other account @peacemaker

The ability to cure any illness, but every time you do so, you get older.

Thank you for your altruistically aging entry, what a cost to heal those you care about and have compassion for.

The depth of my power would unwind the very essence of time and space until which only I and The singularity exist, intertwined in the essence of the one true balance. In the moment of blissful findings and revelations, I realize that I am to weak to return with the knowledge of the One and the "self" and therefore I am no longer...

Peace,
The Last Sage

Thank you for your profoundly thoughtful and poetic entry, sometimes the deepest of knowledge of power cannot be contained in the most simple of beings.

Oh So well put my friend! You really have the ability to let the words flow through you. It is great to see someone in tune.

Peace,
The Last Sage

Definitely and like wise, appreciate that!
Peace indeed

Just recalled another Superpower I suffer From!

My Catch 22 Superpower is the inability to walk past an obviously Pregnant Lady , without asking when the Baby is Due?

Problem with this Superpower is that none of them are pregnant? , and all are seriously lacking in any form of Sense of Humour!

resteemed

Thank you for another hilarious entry, you are funny. I'm not sure if that qualifies as a bonafide superpower, but not being able to refrain from offending plus sized women who aren't pregnant will definitely bring some backlash! lol

hey, did you know you just reached 5,000 posts exactly?

just thought I'd let you know ^_^

Hey thank you yes I saw that, I appreciate it, I will make a milestone post soon giving thanks to everyone for all the support

The power to control Weak and strong nuclear interaction, so you can control fusion and fission of atom,
So you can transmute one element in one other, do powerful explosion like a H bomb, create a unlimited source of energy without radiation and many other application

Thank you for your scientifically dangerous and powerful entry, however I do not see any clear cut downfall or backfiring negative reaction for using this superpower.

I would really love to join bro verbal..but its defficult for me because i only use cheap mobile..i dont have laptop or any pc...all i can do is resteem and congratulates the winner...very nice entry..i love super heroes...THOR here..hehehe

You are eligible to participate bro, just write two sentences of your superpower that comes with a big problem using it and you have already followed all the rules, you upvoted, resteemed and you are already following @peacemaker account, the only thing missing is your comment with your superpower lol it is very easy to enter in :)

My special power is I had an ability to lift up any kind of things no matter how many pounds it is...
But everytime i lift up those things i dont know how to put them down back!

That is a great super comment bro, but for this contest your superpower must have something bad happen when you use it. For example

My superpower is the ability to speak in All languages,
but when I open my mouth to communicate, I spit flesh burning acid onto the person in front of me.

I'l probably turn that into a post :) it'll have some nice imagery

Please change your entry and edit it with a real Catch 22 Superpower like my example :)

Thanks again bro, one entry per person, you can change your entry and edit it, but you cannot give two separate entries

Done bro..thanks verbal-d

You're welcome bro, funny superpower entry thanks. Once you pick anything heavy up, you are stuck there in place forever lol

Yeah..and i will do it to my own house..😁😁

The ability to see the future of anyone I touch but I can't tell it or do anything to change it. This way I get satisfaction from knowing things no one else knows but I can't prevent any loved one from getting harm nor dead.

Thank you for your sad entry, it is indeed a heavy burden to be psychic and not be able to change the inevitable.

This post received a 1.2% upvote from @randowhale thanks to @verbal-d! For more information, click here!

You can have any amount of money you want, but payment is only in pennies. And you can't use banks.

Thank you for your inconveniently heavy and funny entry, however please read all of the rules and once you have followed them, I will gladly accept your entry as valid, to be considered eligible for winning. The rules clearly state you must up vote, resteem and follow my other account @peacemaker

Your kiss can cure any ailment, whether it is physical or emotional. But if you kiss someone that doesn't have any physical and currently bleeding wound then the person you love the most dies.

Thank you for your intimate healing entry, I shall add it to the most current post on the valid entry list. I would hate to find out someone I cared about died while trying to heal someone else I was worried about.
