    sometimes i think that you're some sort of "real life" superhero.

    i mean, how many SUPER-tasters do we have in this world?

  • Matt Mikalatos · 3 years ago
    About 15% of men, and 35% of women.

    A super-taster's one weakness: cancer.

    I only saw part of the first (maybe a few minutes) and part of the second (again, a few minutes), but I find the Japanese dude rather endearing. :D

    I love the idea of a show about superheroes. Seems like this one has execution issues.

    Mir<--not a super-taster, super-sniffer, but maybe super-napper?

    My husband seems to be a super-taster, btw. Gosh, now I have something to worry about!!!

    Thanks for the comments! I gave Heroes 3 tries, and it is gone from my viewing schedule. All it has is sensationalism upon sensationalism to keep audiences coming back - not characters we can empathize with or clever writing. Oh well. Back to Monday Night Football for me.

    I have some serious Matt resentment right now. Not that I object about the show - haven't seen it. But HOW does he keep in touch with all the Stinters, be a dad, and a husband, and an RD and WSN A Team guy and write stories (that get published) and keep a blog, and read books and LEARN STINKIN HEBREW, for heaven's sake...and watch TV? I know!...he is really a super hero who does things at super speed when no one's looking...or he's an alien. Which do you think, BHRists?

    Ah..Carolyn, a good question. WAs Matt really found under a rock as a kid and that is why he can do so much? Maybe it's crazy multitasking skills, but he does get a lot done. Ken, along with my bro I am also a super taster (which helps in my profession, so maybe it is genetic.)
