What superpower would you have?

[neil1990]

the ability to read minds (selectively of course) would be brilliant. Socialising would just be so easy

 

[Macgyvercas]

Does the Thu'um from Skyrim count? Because I want those shouts.

 

[itsausernamewhatofit]

Mind reading. It would make life so incredibly easy and it's one of those powers that you don't have to conceal. Think about the possibilities of knowing everything anyone is planning to do and exactly what you need to say to get what you want.

 

[Final First]

The ability to control the fabric of time and space.

"Looks at Scarim Coral's post"

Damnit.

 

[sooperman]

The ability to reverse time by a few seconds. Kind of like having foresight, but you get to try again if you manage to mess up. I, personally, fumble simple tasks with alarming consistency, so that would be my power, no question.

 

[ozium]

The ability to control matter at a sub atomic level. Basically like Dr Manhattan. Technically I would have every superpower.

 

[George Barrow]

Yes, just change everything to be more FUN, no more war, turn the guns into flowers, no more famine, just spawn food in front of everyone, no more disease, just shift the dangerous cells into normal ones, also immortality and invincibility can easily be achieved.
Ultimate super power and going mad with it is the expected thing to do.

Captcha: Jam Tomorrow
Well I know what is going to be on my sandwich.

Healing. It is the most beneficial to me, the community, and it is the easiest way to profit (if you're one of those 'sell-out' types) from the power itself. Easily, it can save more lives than any other power I can think of. And working up the resulting cult following and power complex accommodating it is always a nice thing.

Alternatively, The ability to control technology would also house an optimal opportunity to change the world for the better. It's primary use (or misuse) would be messing around with digital banking. Steal from the rich, give to the poor. De-fund the neer-do-wells and their causes, alter criminal records and judicial reports. Right all the wrongs in the system. Make a bit of money on the side. Corrupt yourself with power. Blow up entire countries just because you feel about it. It's all for the betterment of humanity.

Also, invincibility would be nice.

Good thinking. But other countries would try to assassinate you. Surely?

"Also, invincibility would be nice."
Perhaps the powers can be discreet. Healing ~ from a distance. Digital Manipulation ~ 'seven proxies, lol'. Every superhero has an alias, mine would go unknown. If I can hide it. Maybe. Probably not. Yeah, people would probably want to kill me.

 

[Malty Milk Whistle]

The ability to completely drain, and store kinetic energy, E.G get hit by a car, absorb however much force it would have hit me with, then do a giga jump with that stored energy.
Or Stealthy'ness.

 

[The]

Transparency. You can't hurt what you can't make physical contact with. Along with invisibility and teleportation of course. Gotta have more than one power.

 

[Gatx]

Controlling time. Stopping, slowing, speeding, reversing... seriously, you can't beat that.

 

[Stuntcrab]

Shape Shifting

Why be human when I can fly to school as a dragon or plane, then turn into a parachute.
Or I can be a Cyriak video such as http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jX3iLfcMDCw

Just think of the possibilities... not the dirty ones....

 

[Brawndo]

Mind control. It beats every other superpower.

Oh you shoot lightning bolts from your hands? Cool story broseph. I'll just mind control you and make you jump off a tall building.

 

[Guffe]

I don't know, too many choices.
But being able to control weather like storm from x-men would be pretty awesome.

 

[Dethenger]

The power of absolute persuasion. I'd know exactly what to say to convince anyone of anything. That, or to always have a couple of bucks. Like, no matter what, I'll always have like, a couple of bucks. And the amount of infinite spare cash I have is proportionate to my purchase; if I'm buying something that's like, twelve bucks, I'll look in my wallet and find like 4 extra bucks, 3 times. If I'm buying something that's like, $500, I'll have like, a hundred or so extra bucks, like five times.

 

[WaReloaded]

The ability to never need sleep and not feel any bad effects from it.

Think of it, I'll never be tired again, I have an extra 8 hours or so every day to do stuff, and it won't be a power that will draw attention and lead to Mulder and Scully knocking on my door.

I loved that episode of The X-Files (The soldiers that had the experimental surgery so they didn't have to sleep, etc)! It had Tony Todd in it, too.

OT: I've always dreamt of having Telekinesis, just being able to life cars with the power of my mind would be insurmountably satisfying.

 

[Panorama]

The power to fart as much as long as stinky and without following through as is needed.

 

[EHKOS]

Either electrical powers (I wish I had these since I was a kid, do you know how awesome it felt to know inFamous was coming out?) Or the ability to make technology work no matter what.

 

[TheVioletBandit]

I would want an unlimited shape-shifting ability where no matter what form I am in I retain my consciousness and intelligence. So, I could for example become light and travel across the universe to other systems or become a gas or vapor and be practically intangible. I would never age because I could simply shape-shift into a younger form and as far as being hurt or dieing, how do you kill light? or water? or air? I would be wonderful.
