Friday marks the opening of X-Men: First Class and I am SUPER pumped about it. I love the X-Men films. This movie is a prequel to the others and I can’t wait to see how it all started.
I have such a fascination with these movies and the concept of having special powers because I wish I had one. I often ask people what mutant or special power they would like to have. Most say to fly, super-human strength, or walk through walls. It’s always something lame like that. I don’t even have to think about it. I know exactly what my mutant power would be. Mine would be mind control. The ability to change people’s mind or place thoughts into their subconscious, now you’re talking. I can dig it. I just think of all the things I can do:
To that old boyfriend: I would place in their mind the thought that they can’t live without me and that it will cripple their existence.
To a boss: I would place in their mind the thought that I am the best employee and I need a sizeable raise.
To a bank teller: I would suggest that they hand me the contents of their cash drawer. No pesky notes or guns needed.
To an annoying person: I would suggest that they be still and/or quiet in my presence or better yet, that they would find me just as annoying as I find them and want with everything that is in them to be nowhere near me. I like that better.
The possibilities are endless. I already practice mind control in the rare chance that I may become mutant powered. I well aware that mutant powers are a suspension of reality, but a girl can hope.
**No one specific has been referenced in the above mentioned mind controls. However, if you think it might be you, well my mind control just might be working after all…
