Scruffy, you broke character dude. Better go clean that up.

Can we get back to the business of pointing out the more questionable aspects of super powers?

How come the Flash's body isn't destroyed by g-forces when he runs really fast?

I always wondered why he didn't wear goggles or something. And how come he never ends up with bugs in his teeth?

If ever low-bridges a tree branch, it would decapitate him.
I don't know a whole lot about the Flash, but if he was going from New York to Miami, would he run on the interstate?

Why doesn't he show more pain when he breaks the claws out considering he breaks bones in his hand every time it happens?
I can't remember the issue, it was back around the time in the 90's before there were a bazillion X-books (the cover had Logan and Rogue on the roof of a train, I think), Logan popped his claws after losing his healing ability and his hands started bleeding. Rogue asked him if it hurt when he popped his claws, his response was "every time".

On the subject of healing powers, would the cheerleader from Heroes be a perpetual virgin?
Another thought on this, would she be able to get pregnant or would her healing ability see a fertilized egg as a virus or bacteria to be killed?

Has anyone asked why there isn't more attention given to the super GPS powers of every character that can fly?
Iron Man I get, but how does Superman know exactly what route to take to get to Kazakastan?

The Speed Force encapsulates him in some sort of layer of protection?

As a non-vagina seeing nerd, I can verify that Flash does indeed generate a protective field as he runs which protects him from friction and the like.

That's kind of what I was thinking about with my question about the Flash taking the interstate.
I saw an episode of Smallville the other day where Clark ran to Honduras or something. How did know the exact right route to the exact right remote jungle village?

Because Superman is also a genius (most folks forget that, but how else could someone build a fortress in the Arctic and staff it with robot duplicates). He also could possibly navigate by the stars or use his telescopic vision from space to find the "Welcome to Kazakastan" sign ;)

Is there anything more frightening than the thought of a telepath being real?

Ok but what about all the others? Green Lanterns ring can navigate. Shazam? Maybe magic I guess.
Ms. Marvel, Storm, Rogue, Wonder Woman, etc?
Or, as Project pointed, how does Flash know how to get where he's going? Dude is constantly pulling a Jesus and running straight over the ocean. How???

Btw, this thread is taking great advantage of my adhd combined with a healthy disinterest in doing any work until quitting time.

I'm slightly hungover right now, and when I'm hungover I'm at my most cynical POV. This thread is a great creative outlet for that.
Why does it seem like every character that doesn't have the ability to fly is an expert pilot? And where do all these planes come from?

Wolverine and Cap should have a drinking contest. Tony Stark can judge.
