Superhero

We all wanted to be one since we were kids. Some of us still want to be a superhero on the inside and don't say it. However, what happens when one of your fears keeps you from being your favorite hero?

Would you be unable to "Hulk Smash" if you had arachnophobia and saw a spider somewhere?

That's pretty manageable, if you ask me.

But I got upset because in a recent talk with my girlfriend, I realized my fear of heights would prevent me from being my favorite superhero, Spiderman.

The web slinger, who jumps all over the heights of New York in order to save the day. And imagine if he were unable to jump all that high due to fear of heights...

So we got thinking into what kind of superhero I could be, despite my fear of heights.

We concluded that:

-Even though Hulk doesn't fly, he can jump pretty damn high and would bring down the aggressive force if that fear were to come out.

-I would probably not want to fly as Iron Man.

-F@ck being Superman, this one's a no-fly zone.

-I would be unable to be as awesome as Batman.

-I refused to be Aquaman, since he's just a swimmer. There have to be better heroes.

Perhaps I could be Flash? He's just really fast...

Maybe I could be from the X-Men, like Gambit or Cyclops. It seemed that was my only option, since I can be on a jet just fine...but flying? Nooooo...*sigh*

Oh well, here's to being a grounded superhero...that is, if it came to that.
