Tennis is very big on Rimbor. And Keeper of the Rackets is THE top political post.

On Bismoll, the Keeper of the Rackets is also the top post. It requires a great deal of self-control not to eat the Rackets, after all.

The Rackettes is Dirk Morgna's favorite dance company! Unlike similar dance troupes, their legs aren't what their most known for!

Rah Ketts was an unsuccessful applicant in v3 issue 14. His ability to play any sport at top level was considered not useful enough since the death of Legion foe Sportsmaster V the previous year.

Oh dear. I had to check that was a real character.
David Beckham's wife referred to him as Golden Balls.

Interior design mags often show that sharp contrasts between curtains and carpet can make a room much more interesting.

A lot of physically attractive yet bland, boring people use that tactic as well.

In a superhero role playing game I created a villain assassin called the Bore. He spoke in a monotone and could bore you to death.

I had a hero called Politeness Man. If he asked politely enough you would do as he asked. Although if it really went against your interests, it would not work. For example, no matter how politely he asked, you would not hurt yourself.
The way he joined the team was by asking if he could.

Poor Politeness Man. These days he'd have too much trouble getting people to look away from their phones to ask them anything.

"The Fantastic Mr. Frump" was an episode of Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends in which a random guy gaining fabulous power by accident.
I remember that watching it as a kid was the first time I ever heard the expression "Go jump in a river!" when Mr. Frump says it to someone (who then promptly does as he says!).

Psimon was another example of this power although he didn't have to say "Psimon says" to use his powers.

I do remember at least one cliffhanger splash page where Psimon makes the Psimon says pun. "Psimon says you must die!""

That was in one of the issues of Crisis, as I was thinking of it too. Probably the bit when he was going to kill Luthor and take over the villains.
