I think I'm going to go with shapeshifting too, the possibilities are endless.

I've always thought the power to control the weather would be pretty sweet. You could make all kinds of cool entrances with a thunderclap and lightning in the background.

Have you ever dressed up like Thor? :wub
 
Have Japan and Mexico switch places so it wouldn't take so long to visit Japan.

Mind Control!

I'd use it to alter horror movies so the dumb bitch leaves the house and goes to a motel 300 miles away instead of up the stairs to the haunted bedroom or the possessed toilet.

And maybe some light world domination, nothing too extreme.

Shapeshifting. I would humiliate so many celebrities and political figures. :D

:lol I would LUV this.

*morphs into Pres. Bush*

Bush: I quit. No seriously...I quit. If you ever see me claiming otherwise, throw me in jail. This is a Presidential Executive Order, going into effect in 10 seconds *runs to bathroom to change back*

*morphs into Ann Coulter*

*flashes cameras*
 
Telekinesis and Flight

At least I'm currently able to do both in my dreams pretty regularly. It's funny every 7-8 years, I gain a new super power in my dreams. Pretty soon I'll be invincible.......in my dreams only grrrr....
 
If I were wise I would have taken up the superhero position I saw on Monster.com about 3 years ago.

It was asking for a superhero, short stature, broad shoulders, sharp wit who has the ability to seduce a woman from 100+ mi. with a single finger stroke.

It's called internet chat and yes, it does work!

Let's say that some guy in China is going to have sex. So I pick up my CockBlockPhone when I detect this, call him, and be all like "你的妈妈是死" and he'd be all like "什么?!" And his erection would go away and I'd win. Or even in Germany, I'd call a guy up and ask him why "mein Milchshake holt alle Jungen zum Gelände" and this would make his head explode.

Hahahah @ the Chinese :D

Did you use Babelfish? The part where it says, "Your Mom is Dead" is translated too literally so it's grammatically incorrect, but the rest is fine :)

My superpower? The manipulation of time of course! (Fast forward, rewind, bullet time, time stop all on demand!) Change anything! Change everything! There would be no villian/nemesis cuz I would've went back in time and killed him already :)

[Edit]: After seeing some selections made on the flight superpower, technically you're getting shafted.

Why? Mainly because if you choose Telekinesis you could pick yourself up and move yourself however you life (AKA Flight) So choosing just flight and not getting the telekinesis is like buying the Xbox360 tard pack for the same price as the "Premium" Pack ;-)
 
a superpower?

1000 years of guaranteed life, in a delayed aging process where by the end of the 1000 years I'm biologically a 50 year old. I'm 22 now, so ages 22 to 50 in 1000 years.

Irrespective of what I do, fate or my superpower will always intervene to save me until I've lived 1000 years.

Actually that's more like an outlandish wish.

I'd also sign up for the shapeshifting superpower.
 
I want complete invunerability, I want to be one of those Xbox live punks but in real life, without fear of getting pummelled.


Walking down the street, someone falls over..

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHAHHAHAHAAHHAHAHAHAHAAHHAHAHAHAAAH" *corpse hump* "HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA"

Get beat at 1 on 1...

"Whatever, you still suck, like your mom last night, I had bitchin' lag anyway, you cant beat me without cheating" *knocks other guy over & corpse hump* "AHHAHAHAHAHAHAHA"

At work in a meeting..

"Alright Mom, ill round for dinner in a minute, Im just kicking this guys ass..." *hangs up phone*

Coworker: "Heres my idea..."

"FUCK THAT IDEA IT SUCKS AND YOU SUCK AND YOU SUCK, YOU'RE ALL MY BITCHES NOW DO WHAT I SAY"

Steve Jobs: "Im gonna mute this guy"






ad infinitum



Playing on Xbox live:

"...."
 
Elasticity! Then I could fly (stretch into a kite) "web-sling" with my arms, reach shit that's far away without getting up, shrink and grow in size, and a bunch of other really cool shit.

Though at my current jobs (Quiznos and Ben & Jerry's) the power of multiplicity would fucking own. Especially if each of my dupes got their own paychecks! Cha-ching!
 
Folks didn't know what a Green Lantern's ring can do? Scary...

... and the yellow thing isn't as much a detriment as one would think. If you run into a yellow danger thing, simply will all dust particles in the surrounding area to clump around you, them will the protons within the dust molecules to shift just enough to transmute the dust into a fairly strong material. The ring's power then holds the super strong stuff against you like a suit of armor, and allows you to smash anything yellow in your way.
 
Telekinesis, flight, or super strength (all of which I dream about quite often; that's got to be the sign of a geek)

And super metabolism-the power to eat as much as I want and not gain weight (which I used to have - getting older reeks)
 
Dual psionics, telepathy/telekinesis...'nuff said. Anyone who agrees with me in this thread am winnar!

*Prepares to read thread and find a bunch of generic "supa strength" "flight" "invisibility" responses*
 
My superpower would be that I actually understand women!

Not only would I finally get laid, I can also write books and start a Dr phil like TVshow and get rich!

uhh... these days telepathy/telekinesis are just as generic
 
i would like to have the ability to turn everything that i want in to Pink!

money would turn in to PINK when i touch it.
people will turn pink when i shake their hands.

and my magic stick would be pink so every girl that sees it goes: ohh look how cute and wants to suck on it!

Don't you already have that power since you are a Mac fan? *runs*

Sorry to take so long to respond. In my altered reality you've realized the truth and have 5 macs at home :P
 
Scrow said:

Uhh...No.

There are too many of them yes...because people finally realized just how fucking amazing those powers are. I'm talking "generic" in terms of useability, versatility, and functionality.

Ooooh, flight...and? What else? With telekinesis you can fly AND do a whole host of other shit.

Telekinesis encompasses Flight, Super Strength, Protection(TK shields/armor/force fields), object creation(TK hooks, weapons, platforms, etc), invisiblity(bending light), teleportation(instant transference of matter), transmutation(telekinetic molecular manipulation), Fire(spontaneous combustion of oxygen and other flammable substances), Environment probing/awareness(able to detect changes in your surroundings), body reconstruction/healing, etc

Telepathy encompasses mind reading, thought projection, instant memory recall/never forget, time-compressed learning(crash course language for instance, flight training, martial arts, scientific knowledge), instant memory dumps(experience a whole person's life in an instant...share different perspectives of the current battle and devise a tactical plan etc), no language barriers, possession, cohersion, illusion casting, control of bodily function including hormone secretion, involutary functions, immune system, etc, psychic blasts(psi-bolts), astral projection, precognition, functional invisibility(telepathically mask your presence), transfer your consciousness from one body to another, exist without a body, anticipate the actions of others by reading their thoughts, slow the perception of time of others(giving you the illusion of super speed), have an entire conversation at the speed of thought, etc

TK/TP=Win!

Why wish for a dollar when you can wish for a license to print money (legal issues and laws of economics nothwithstanding, but you know what I mean).
 
For awhile at work I thought my superpower was the ability to pick up a stack of $1 bills and have them count out to exactly $50 every time. It happened to me three nights in a row while counting the drawer down (there was more than $50 in ones in the drawer, but tie amount I grabbed was always $50).

Anyway, I think laser vision would be sweet.
 
The power to stop time would only be great if it were under the condition that you didn't age while time was stopped. Otherwise you could end up being a lot older than you should be.

If you can freeze time, everyone else thinks that you can teleport.
 
Id like to have the power Mel Gibson had in What Women Want so I could read womens minds. If only I had such a power I would be able to unlock the secret of how women think.

I can keep dreaming
