From Cracked,#6 Super-breath
As cool as it'd be to have any super-power… well, nobody's getting laid with super-breath. We don't care how many orphanages you save using it, it just sounds stupid.
"What's your power?"
"I blow things!"
" Pfff! No, seriously, what's your power?"
If wasn't bad enough, it also makes you look like a dumbass while you're using it. Even Superman doesn't look cool all hunched over, cheeks puffed out, pushing air through pursed lips to knock out an arch-nemesis or blow out a raging fire. We're not denying that it's useful. It's just not terribly dignified. Plus, if you plan on using this power on a regular basis, you'd best have some breath mints on your person.

That's actually one of the best Cracked articles we've posted yet. So much so I'll reproduce the list:
9. Telepathy
8. Super Intelligence
7. Wearing a Mech Suit
6. Super Breath
5. Splitting
4. Shrinking
3. Matter-eating
2. Magnetism
1. Being Aquaman
The thing is, I can see serious real-world problems with having numbers 9, 8, 7, 4 and 2 -- all of which are kind of "legitimate" super powers at face value.
Loved it!
