So. Went to the dentist--at seven in the goddamn morning-- and got a very unpleasant surprise.

Know how I don't have wisdom teeth? And I have, on many occasions, gloated about this fact, and joked about how I'm a mutant and will be joining the X-Men any day now?

Well, it looks like my membership application's gonna be turned down, because I got X-rays, and guess what turned up?

Yeah. Wisdom teeth. Two of 'em, which will have to go by the end of the summer. Apparently some people just develop them late.

So much for my mutant powers.

Don't give up hope -- maybe you'll be kidnapped and experimented on, or perhaps you'll fall in a vat of toxic waste or be bitten by a radioactive gecko.

You still have lots of mutant-becoming possibilities!

Dude, that kind of bites. HA HA HA HA HA...ha...ha...cuz...it...bites...they're teeth...and...::cough::...::vomit::

Anyway. Sorry about that. You have bragged to me on at least two occasions about your wisdom teeth (or lack thereof), whereupon I counter-bragged that even though I have them it seems as though there's no need to have them removed, cuz my teeth are just genetically awesome.

I'm sure you've got other terrible powers you can share with the world. Even if they're only terrible in that they're just really bad, not particularly noteworthy powers. Say, if you could make a really good sandwich, or were very adept at reading maps.

Sandwiches and maps are all very well and good, but I was hoping for, like, laser vision. Or whatever physics-defying force holds up Wonder Woman's costume.

Yup. I'll just have to hope that there's a horrible industrial accident with my name on it somewhere out there.
