If you could have one "power", what would it be?
 
What I'm trying to get here, is if you had a certain "power" you could choose, would it be super-human strength, or invisibility, etc?

Personally, I would choose to be invisibility for too many reasons I don't care to list.

Strange Famous 08-16-2004 12:48 PM

probably omnipotence.

If it had to be a lesser super power... I think mind control over others

maleficent 08-16-2004 12:48 PM

Question's been asked... recently....

bastard beat me to it. bummer.

stonegrody 08-16-2004 12:49 PM

The ability to fly. That would kick ass.

skier 08-16-2004 01:01 PM

Well let's switch up the question. If you could have a CRAPPY superpower, what would it be? Like turn mustard into ketchup or something.

World's King 08-16-2004 01:04 PM

I just wanna fly. Or have the power to get myself laid.

That would be to locate the other missing sock.

Fremen 08-16-2004 01:26 PM

To be able to scratch my own back...

CoachAlan 08-16-2004 01:30 PM

I'm glad you changed the question to a "crappy" power, because this would have been my answer for a regular power, too, and that's just embarassing.

I want the ability to flick my thumb and have it light on fire. Like they do in the cartoons. Even before I started smoking cigars, when I was adamantly against smoking, I desperately wanted this power. If I were ever given three wishes, this would definitely be one of them.

Redjake 08-16-2004 01:39 PM

crappy power? I would definitely want to be able to conjure a penny, but you could only conjure 3 per day, so if you needed 3 cents you could conjure it but WHOA that's it. You couldn't become rich.

jester 08-16-2004 02:54 PM

Limitless transmutation of matter would be pretty cool.

raeanna74 08-16-2004 03:40 PM

Hmm Crappy power?

I'd like to have that "eye in the back of my head".

It could be annoying to me personally(sleeping on my eye and getting shampoo in my eyes) and very creepy looking but yet there are those times as a mother...

For a real super power? I'd want Telekinesis. Can you imagine what kind of things you could do with that? I've got a couple people who deserve a little messing with and that would be perfect. On the other hand the ability to help people would be so great.

Journeyman 08-16-2004 03:47 PM

I'd say the power to see perfectly well in the dark, but I don't know if that's a crappy power.

Nefir 08-16-2004 04:18 PM

I'd like to be able to lick my eyebrows. That may or may not be a crappy power, depending on your perspective. http://www.deja-fu.com/blog/wp-image...s/plotting.gif

Gabbyness 08-16-2004 04:45 PM

Definitely fly. That would kick ass.

Lasereth 08-16-2004 04:47 PM

I'd say the crappiest superhuman ability is to be able to unclog any toilet in the world without a plunger...by using your mind! Then you'd be known as the Shit Sucker or something and everyone would know you as being the guy that's good with piles and moats of shit.

-Lasereth

Xell101 08-16-2004 04:54 PM

I'd say the crappiest power in the world would be the ability to permenantly blind yourself at will.

Carno 08-16-2004 05:00 PM

I'd want the power of invincibility.

For a crappy power, I'd want to be able to always make it in when I throw paper balls at my garbage can.

Grondar 08-16-2004 05:18 PM

I think the power of reading anyone's mind would be interesting, but not necessarily a good power to have.

Invisibility would be really sweet, providing I could go visible and invisible at will.

Flying is also a possibility, but I like driving a lot, so I don't think I am as into flying as I used to be. ;)

orphen 08-16-2004 05:29 PM

omipotence, gotta get myself some of that :D

StormBerlin 08-16-2004 06:21 PM

I would have the power of persuasion for a good power. And the power to make all my dishes do themselves for a crappy power. Oh, and my laundry too.

Captain Canada 08-16-2004 06:25 PM

I just want The Force.

Sue 08-16-2004 06:29 PM

crappiest? to bend minds with my spoon :eek:

:D

RainbowBright 08-16-2004 06:30 PM

good power - maybe invisible but maybe i'd see/hear things I don't want to (like what people REALLY think of me) so I guess flying cuz there's a lot of places I'd like to get to a lot faster and cheaper

crappy power - the ability to unlock my house with my mind when my hands are full of groceries - and also when I lock myself out

Bentley Little 08-16-2004 07:02 PM

The super crappy power I would have would be to fart on command.

Bentley Little 08-16-2004 07:02 PM

The super crappy power I would have would be to fart on command. Oh wait, I already have that power. :)

sorry, don't know how that got posted twice.

Jesus Pimp 08-16-2004 07:25 PM

The ability to turn invisible at will.

tangledweb 08-16-2004 07:41 PM

Flying would kick ass !(if you had some good eye protection)

For crappy powers, the ability to mow the lawn with my mind. (mostly because my lawn currently needs my attention)

Seer666 08-16-2004 07:45 PM

Good power. For everything to happen just the way I want it.

Crappy power. Hum.. For every insect within 20 feet to just drop dead. Then I would charge 50 bucks to walk around peoples homes.

Speed_Gibson 08-16-2004 07:48 PM

blanket answer for 'crappy power' -
take all of the good powers in that first thread that I already posted in way back when and this thread and add one small clause: 'The ability to use this powers(s) will turn off or on at random for wildly varying lengths (could be anywhere from 5 seconds to a full week or longer) with no control at from you'

Adds a new twist to the flying, invisibilty, and others

spaceman spiff 08-16-2004 09:13 PM

the only superpower for me would have to be the ability to transmogrify(morph)myself into any object(yes, as seen in Calvin and Hobbes. I have a hard time letting go leave me alone!)

Jazzbone 08-16-2004 09:18 PM

Invisibility for sure...

Stare At The Sun 08-16-2004 09:21 PM

I'd want to fly. Yeup. :)

Erasmusred 08-16-2004 09:56 PM

I think a great crappy power would be if you could pre-taste things. You know, like be able to know if something was going to taste like shit before you actually ate it...I donno, that might be one anyway

oblar 08-16-2004 10:48 PM

hmm crappy super power. The ability to phase my right hand at any point to go through matter. That way I could always find the "special hidden prize" in cereal boxes and I would never be locked out of my house again!

But do you choose to use it for the betterment of mankind????? :)

Lunchbox7 08-16-2004 11:55 PM

Good power would be psionics.

Crappy power would be to give myself head.

Rodney 08-17-2004 12:12 AM

Crappy power? To make automobile tires blow out at a distance, through sheer willpower. Nobody would ever tailgate me again -- not for long, anyway....hehehehe

Good superpower? Teleportation. See the world and, by the way, make millions smuggling.

CoachAlan 08-17-2004 12:54 AM

Pre-tasting and paper-ball-throwing. Now those are some good crappy powers. What a creative lot we have.
