If you could instantly gain one REALISTIC ability?

[Taham]

The ability to stay calm, no matter what.

 

[lokicdn]

The ability to find a cure for Diabetes. Not being able to feel ones feet amongst other problems really sucks.

 

[zombie711]

super knowlege on school subjects

 

[thespyisdead]

the ability to put my new found programming skills to good use, like a job

 

[ThePenguinKnight]

Peak physical condition, and I wouldn't mind being a bit taller.

 

[Redingold]

Be adept at math at a P.H.D level, but not super-adept because I'd still like to smoke weed and not win Nobel Prizes.

There's no Nobel Prize for maths, so you don't have to worry about that.

I would like to be able to play some musical instruments with expertise. Probably piano, guitar and cello, at least.

 

[RedDeadFred]

Be the best hockey player ever. I would play for the Calgary Flames and lead us to victory in the Stanley Cup Playoffs 20 seasons in a row.

 

[Saltarius]

The ability to use a bow and arrow.

Because Hunger Games and shit.

 

[Shoggoth2588]

Eternal life.

Don't say it isn't realistic, those jellyfish have it.

Those jellyfish cheated god, now they must pay for their hubris.

Big stupid jellyfish.

Ssshh...they'll hear you and send in the little Jellyfish...you know the ones; the ones that can murder you to death. Being able to murder dudes with a single touch would be fun but it would probably get me into trouble.

So as for my ability...fluency in several languages (Norwegian, Korean, Japanese and, German). From there I'll just whore myself to the U.N. and various tourists. Or take up a job translating things for other countries.

 

[The Funslinger]

Eternal life.

Don't say it isn't realistic, those jellyfish have it.

Those jellyfish cheated god, now they must pay for their hubris.

Big stupid jellyfish.

I'm fairly certain they've already paid for their crimes by being 99% water, and having no brains, or anus. And being like that, forever because they're fucking immortal!

OT: I'd like to become skilled at playing the guitar, or drawing.

 

[SnakeoilSage]

To have enough motivation to get shit done. The rest is cake.

 

[A Satanic Panda]

Eternal life.

Don't say it isn't realistic, those jellyfish have it.

Those jellyfish cheated god, now they must pay for their hubris.

Big stupid jellyfish.

On that note, to live long enough to see Half Life 3.

 

[JamesStone]

Eternal life.

Don't say it isn't realistic, those jellyfish have it.

Those jellyfish cheated god, now they must pay for their hubris.

Big stupid jellyfish.

Your quizz awards are... ironic, mr. Blasto

OT: Having the highest IQ on earth. Turning my pleasent 160 into 260. Hell yeah.

 

[Dutch 924]

Extremely high intelligence

 

[soren7550]

I don't know which I'd rather have - to be able to do parkour (sp?) or read and speak fluent Japanese. I think I'd go with the Japanese since then I can understand game trailers that are in Japanese, read manga as soon as it's released (and not rely on translations that the quality of said translations vary), watch anime w/o having to have subtitles on, and a trip to Japan wouldn't pose much of a problem for me (except for that whole 'that cost money' thing).

 

[Malyc]

The ability to fully master the art of fighting with a pair of blades.

Surrounded by enemies? At least I have a second weapon to distract you with!

 

[DaWaffledude]

Social skills so good I can practically read minds (mwahahaha)

 

[userwhoquitthesite]

I want my archery skill back.

or the ability to compose music
