I was thinking today about having sweet super-powers and choosing which one I would like to have was hard enough but then when I tried to decide to use them for good or or nefarious deeds... what say you?

Hero. I wouldnt go around announcing myself to the papers or wearing a costume but it would be the right thing to do.

Depends on the day. If I feel crappy, some people are going to die. If I feel happy, I'll save some people.

I'd be in the middle. I'd feel guilty if I was evil, but I would be too lazy to save the day every fucking day.

I'd use the powers for that grey zone. some must die so that humanity might live, and all that.
Use the powers to unite the people of terra :)
I wouldn'tput myself as leader though. just facilitator for the unification.

Id probably go destructive out of frustration. I expect the government would turn against me trying to stop me from going vigilante or trying to capture me for study. So depending on the scale of my superpowers id either dissappear and live quietly or destroy whoever tries to get in my way.

Id also go "falling down" on everything I think thats wrong with the world.

I'd be in the middle helping people out but also helping myself out to everyone's belongings

I find it hilarious that no one would use theirs for good only. I imagine mostly I'd use mine to enjoy myself but I doubt I'd break the law.

I would attempt to be a hero, but with flexibilities on my methods. Still, all I would do would be for a good purpose/reason/cause, and I wouldn't kill people not involved.

Although, I fail to see the correlation between truth and justice, and the "American way."

EDIT: More specifically, what kind of hero I'd be, I would be a cross between the Punisher, the Comedian, and Neo: Kill criminals/baddies with guns, have some awesome powers that make it easier, and get the government to accept me and every now and then give me a lead.

I'd do whatever the hell I wanted. Not necessarily evil. I may splatter people I hate against walls, or I may proclaim myself the God Emperor.

Or I may decide that both are too much trouble and just use my to get snacks really quickly during ad beaks.

I said I would :(
Seriously? I spend way too much time thinking about stuff like this and came to the conclusion that at best you'd end up with some people supporting you and the rest thinking you're a tosser for thinking you know who deserves justice. Far easier to use your powers for your own benefit and entertainment.

Yeah? Well, a lot of the German people were cool with Hitler killing the Jews, but does that make it right?
