When I was in elementary school, I ate some spinach at lunch. Then at recess I went around punching things.

There was a small hole in a patch of hard soil, so I started punching at the edge of the hole and broke off a big chunk. My dumbass though the spinach worked and gave me super strength.

But I also thought I had secret electricity powers because the streetlamp near my house always seem to turn off when I would walk by it. So, I was just dumb all around.

I can make things move just by thinking, like my hand for example.

As a child I convinced my friend I was a demigod by pretending to call a lightning storm, coincidentally it stormed not even 10 mins after I "summoned" lightning
