If I could have a superpower thread

[WYP]

We all spend at least some of out time considering one very important question.

If I could have any single superpower, what would it be?


The Idea behind this thread is simple, if you could have a superpower, what would it be and why.

If you can think of any downsides of this superpower, please mention it. You can also comment on someone else's choice of superpower and the potential downsides.

This thread is designed to be a little bit of fun with some light-hearted humour, so please bear this in mind.


Personally, I would like the QuickSilver's power from the recent XMEN movies, it would be very handy to be able to do things faster. I could be a lot more productive.

Can you think of any downsides for this power. What would be your superpower?

Immense intellect like Ozymandias from Watchmen, since Knowledge is power after all

Invisibility for sure! I'd find a street mime and beat the hell out of him, make him earn his money.

Pfft, you would just spend all your time in the ladies changing rooms!

Nah I don't need too but I would follow Derek Acorah around and make his life a misery.

Hitch a free ride to the states and give a certain new "most powerful man in the US" and good hiding.

The power of Thor!

Now that would be handy, but if you were that smart wouldn't life be a little boring? Then again I guess that depends on how you plan on using your knowledge/power.

Invisibility for sure! I'd find a street mime and beat the hell out of him, make him earn his money.

I wouldn't like that, especially at this time of year. Since I assume your clothing will still be visible.

The power of Thor!

But are you worthy of that power?

To make neurotypicals feel like some one with a mental illness. Just for a minute, that would probably be enough.

Haha, just got it.

timelord would be a nice power
or
Give men the power to understand women
or
The funny one I always thought would be to make people feel the pain they inflict, so if you hit someone it would be hitting yourself and they wouldn't be hurt

Very interesting, what would you change if you could go back in time?

I'm with you on that WYP. The possibilities it presents (responsible and otherwise) are endless. Also I wouldn't have to worry about being late anywhere again which is a bonus

Apologies but I would use mine and sit in changing rooms.....

Invisibility, as long as you could keep your clothes on, you could just go into a bank when the staff go in and follow who ever goes down to the vault then start filling your pockets

See!! This guy gets it

Why not Wolverines? Isn't Deadpool's healing factor the cause of his deformities?
