I wouldn't mind being the same proportions I am now, except eight feet tall... and crazy-stealthy.
Just to scare everyone.

I would have Daystar's ability to steal my thoughts. Damn you Daystar!Daystar Clarion said:

Other than having writing skills that would put Tolkien, Heinlein, King and Steven Erikson to shame, I would like to become a martial arts (Kung Fu specifically) grand master, including meditation and weapons skills.
Unwavering motivation to get things done. i'm not stupid, but booooy am i unfocused and incredibly proficient at procrastination. if i had that kind of motivation, i could do whatever i set my mind to within logical constraints.
this, god it would be so amazing, unless you saw something you didn't want to (Parents having sex or something) because you would never forgetDaystar Clarion said:

Since tangible/societal things can apparently be included in this, I'd like control over a book publishing house. That way I could write and be published. I'd have to make sure that I didn't get any special treatment besides the automatic interest of my editor, so that I didn't get away with publishing junk or with spelling mistakes... but having people who had to work with me until it was ready to go would be awesome.Auron225 said:
You know, as opposed to sending in your manuscript and getting a dear john letter before they even read it.
Immense knowledge of computer programming would help me make money, but to help humanity, vast knowledge of astronomy and/or engineering.
Scott Pilgrim has gained the power of self respect!
... I wish I had a regenerative ability, not unlike Wolvereen but much less op, so like I could break my back an providing that it wasn't too far up and broke that part of the spinal cord (that has a special name but I can't remember and CBF Wikipedia) I would fully heal. And injury should still hurt like shit... fuck it, Metal Bones, keep the uber regen, unbreakable bones.
Anyone know where to go sign up for the Spartan III project?

I actually know someone from South Africa[footnote]He's as white as they come, for anyone curious: blonde hair, blue eyes, slightly tanned white-y[/footnote] who speaks Afrikaans, so that wouldn't be a terrible thing to know.Auron225 said:For me it would to be fluent in Afrikaans - I have my reasons
OT: I'd either go with a prodigious gift for languages (I'd be like pokemon, except with languages and learning instead of pokemon and catching), or a photographic memory as Daystar suggested, and pretty much for the reason Daystar suggested.
OT: Another might be the capacity to have godly-good looks with minimal effort (so basically the greatest humanly-possible ability to put on muscle/lose fat/not get pimples/not lose hair/grow a beard, that only extends insofar as it makes me gorgeously attractive (don't want to be anorexic or have so much muscle I look like an over-filled balloon man)). Let's face it, being excessively attractive would have made all of us normal-people's lives so much easier.Daystar Clarion said:
To be as good at football (soccer for the americans) as Alessandro Del Piero would make me incredibly happy... or even half as good.
Kinda interesting observation though, many seem to have money as the main objective for being good at something. Now dont get me wrong, I think that is a perfectly valid reason for wanting to be good at something, I just never thought about it like that. Would just be so much fun to be really supergood at something just for the sake of it. Playing football with my friends and just totally owning them Del Piero-style!

Being able speak any language on the planet would be useful.

But for pure fun, would have to go with having circus skills.

I would want the ability to be the world greatest magician with absolutely no effort at all and also be an expert card thrower. Vigilantism anyone?
higntened senses, so there on a level to rival like a wolf's sense of smell and a hawks vision.
I have shit eye sight (i'm extremely short sighted) so improving all my sense would hopefully partially fix that, plus i'd be able to hear if anyone was talking about me behind my back whilst i'm in there presence. plus as a boon with hightened sense my reflexs might adapt to be slightly better
