Same as Vintage Girl, only my powers are greatest in airports.

I give off a form of energy that causes the person in front of me in the ticket line to decide to attempt a last second ticket/flight/destination change that is incompatible with their original itinerary or fair. My power is so substantial that the person becomes incapable of understanding any language the ticket people speak and instantly locks all the credit cards that person may try to use until such a time that I am late for my own flight.

Their is a minor gravitaional effect associated with my curse, as well. It renders all baggage belonging to the person in front of me 8 pounds over the weight limit and requires the owner to sort, prioritize, and loudly narrate each discovery and the subsequent deliberation required to determine whether said item should be jettisoned or retained.

Once at the boarding gate, my powers morph into an uncontrolled force that enlarges the person in front of me's bag to beyond carry-on size. At the same instant, the bag owner becomes incapable of parting with the bag for even the shortest flight time.

Once on the plane, the most tragic part of the curse takes effect - it attracts any collicky babies within a 40 row radius and renders the child's parent deaf to the catterwauling of their spawn.

Also, all the shoes I buy act as puke attractants in bars.

Either that, or people's shoe fashion sensibilities are far more delicate than previously believed.
