I didn't see this anywhere, so I decided to start this game! This is based on a Facebook post that got pretty popular.

The rules: Each poster picks a superpower. The next poster decides under what conditions they can use or have this superpower, the idea being to make it inconvenient, funny or both.

Example:

Troper A: Invisibility!
Troper B: Only when nobody's looking. Pyrokinesis!
Troper C: Only in hot weather. Teleportation!
Troper D: The location is always random. (Etc)

I'll start things off with ...

Talking to animals!

You can only talk to animals when you're alone. You want to talk to animals? You talk to animals.

The probability always works out in someone else's favor, never your own.
