Lardy has the power to travel through time by spinning a table in his presence. He can travel to any point in the past or future where a table occupies that same general area, allowing him to leave a boring modern restaurant and go visit the swinging speakeasy that sat on that spot in the Roaring 20s.

Lardy has the power to make people happy by giving them a good swat. This power is especially effective on masochists.

When Lardy hugs a woman, he only has normal strenght. When he hugs a man, he gains super-strenght, resulting in a man crushing bearhug

Lard Lad has distilled the powers of our own yellow sun into specially-designed "pagers." He always has one on hand in case the nearest Son or Cousin of Krypton is headed for a red sun and needs portable super-powers to fight evil.

While his detractors claim that this refers to Lardy's ability to be the life of the party, and make giggling references to something called 'Reefer Madness,' in truth, Double Joints refers to Lardy's ability to add joints to any object he touches, allowing him to fold it in half for convenient storage.

It's not the manboobs. It's the tassles. Once he gets them spinning in opposite directions, people's eyes glaze over and his accomplices can tie their shoelaces together while they are entranced.

Lard Lad is the only man in the English-speaking world who can do a Karaoke medley of Foreigner songs without inciting mass revolts. Yes, even "Double Vision" and shudder "Waiting For A Girl Like You" are spun into gold owing to Lardy's way with a vintage Top 40 song.

This is easily the power set that confuses evil- doers the most. Lardy splits into three women. while simultaneously speaking Japanese.

Lardy has the power to duplicate an inanimate object he purchases. There are limits to this power. Sadly, it does not work on cars, houses, airplanes, rare comics or grilled cheese sandwiches.

Similar to Letterman Letterman video

Lardy can exchange any single word in a sentence for another. This comes in handy in a wide variety of ways, such as changing "Fries will cost extra" to "Fries WON'T cost extra."

Lardy can reach into his pockets and produce any of a bewildering array of small items. He once was tipped over and a pile of items large enough to bury him poured forth, leading to onlookers using terms like 'Fibber McGee's closet' and 'plethora' and 'potpourri of junk.' Potpourri was the name that stuck.

This is an involuntary power of Lardy's. If a dirty person (defined as someone who hasn't bathed or showered in the previous 24 hours) comes within 1 foot of Lard Lad, they are instantly covered with a soapy lather. The lather disappears in 45 seconds, leaving the person clean, but smelling like they have been soaked in beer.

Lardy's other powers are at their most effective between the hours of 9 PM and 7 AM. It is during these hours that villains are least inclined to tangle with him, as he can pretty much use all his other powers at once, nonstop, without tiring appreciably;And without requiring food, sleep or trips to the bathroom.

Re: Total Static Head
Lardy can emanate waves from his head that cause all communications devices within two miles to get nothing but static.

This power is used for searching for buried treasure. It starts off with Lardy running in an increasingly widening circle. At just the right point, he starts to slide or skid along the ground. He will keep skidding until he comes to rest on the next hidden "treasure" in the direction he was skidding. Unfortunately, it usually just turns up discarded pennies.

With a touch, Lardy can turn any object into a mink coat. The object must be touched with his left elbow while he is standing on his head and singing the theme to The Patty Duke Show, but some of these powers do have rather odd limitations.

Everyone knows that those swanky glossies like Wine Spectator just make stuff up based upon how much advertising dough they get from the vintners and restaurant owners. If we only had Lardy's superpower, we could tell by sight alone which wine was worth the $60 price tag and which wine was just Franzia in a cooler package. As a bonus, we'd always have the power to verbally one-up those irritating culture vultures in black who always show up at wine tastings to make everyone else feel low-class.

Just by poking any leafy green vegetables, Lardy can instantly animate them into a flurry of flying leaves and stems, ably providing confusion to any foe. Obviously a salad would have a lot of these, and as such is a formidable weapon.

By humming any tune written by late-18th/early-19th-Century English composer William Crotch , Lardy can turn any object into a rocket.
