Transcript:
Pasquale: Last year I was as tall as this tree! You're not distributing growth fairly! I should be taller! Guardian: Let me process your complaint... Pasquale: I'm taller than the tree! Guardian: Yes. But there are a few responsibilities that come with this height! Pasquale: What are they? Guardian: Remain stationary with your arms outstretched. Pasquale: Why? Guardian: Birds will need a place to perch... I'll have to replace your hair with foliage! Pasquale: Make me regular size again! How about giving me the running and jumping abilities of a rabbit? Guardian: You're not going to like the fluffy tail and floppy ears!

You won’t like the dogs that come to play “fetch” with you as a rabbit either!

To truly explore the theme, try reading the “Wild Cards” series of books by George RR Martin and Melinda Snograss..What if a Virus existed that could, Randomly, grant you the same sort of “Changes” as getting struck by a Magic Meteor or bitten by a Radioactive Spider?
What are the Odds that, instead of getting an Awesome Power, you might instead catch the Joker and become Snotman?
Or Half Man, Half poisonous Snake? Or, just turn you Bright Purple with no “unusual” abilities at all?
Or, maybe turn all your Fingers into Crayons?.Or, you could just start growing your Hair longer and longer until you Starved to death because you couldn’t Eat fast enough to keep up with the Nutrient Loss…
