[ WP ] For decades , you 've lived with the most underrated yet useful superpower of all : eliminating all minor inconveniences . One morning , however , you wake up to find your powers have vanished .

Everyone gave me that look when I told them my power, but in truth I couldn ’ t be happier. With just a snap, I could eliminate any minor inconvenience: the dog in my way? Snap! She ’ s across the room. The fridge too far? Snap! It ’ s in my room. Then Snap! It ’ s back in the kitchen. Easy mac takes four minutes to cook? Snap! I can cook it in a second. 
 
 
 It was great, and eventually people started to see it my way. That ’ s when the favors started pouring in. 
 
 
 “ Max, this pasta is too hot! ” Snap! 
 
 
 “ Max, YouTube is buffering again. ” Snap! 
 
 
 “ Max, my pen ran out of ink. ” Snap! 
 
 
 “ Max— “ 
 
 
 That ’ s when I blew it. I couldn ’ t take it anymore. Hearing them ask me for these little favors, and snapping my fingers all day long. It was downright irritating. So I snapped—snap! —one last time. And my superpower, my greatest inconvenience, was gone.
