What I’m saying is anti-mutant sentiment in X-Men is explicitly designed to mirror anti-LGBTQ sentiment in real life, and Toad had to have dealt with some dickhead restaurant patrons at some point. Another customer would probably get it all on video and make Toad a viral sensation. Maybe that would be a boon to the restaurant. Like it becomes a tourist attraction or something. “Come watch the frog cook win a hot dog eating contest.” Maybe they could take inspiration from Chicago’s legendary shit-talking hot dog stand Weiners Circle and design a whole restaurant around getting your ass kicked by Toad. I’d watch a Chef-style movie based on that premise.
Did Beast Ever Catch Anyone Using A Lint Roller Around Him?
The power:
Beast is strong, fast, and agile. He has incredible hops (I’m beginning to think we could get a great dunk contest out of the X-Men). He’s a confused mix of non-human ape and big cat, giving him sharp claws and teeth, but also King Kong tendencies. He’s also a genius-level intellectual with a strong sense of decorum and dignity. Vacillating between violent, animalistic tendencies and ultra-politeness? No wonder they cast Kelsey Grammar.

The effect on normal life:
The cost of all of Beast’s powers is that he’s blue and super furry, and being Very Dignified is hard to do when there’s visible shedding happening constantly. Visibly shedding blue, too — if Beast’s hair gets on you, you’re not going to politely blame it on your cat or dog. Not even your CatDog. It’s Beast hair that’s on you. But do you brush it off in front of him?
