Clearly we're full of shit.

I'd learn photography and then combine the abilities to win the Wildlife Photographer of the Year award.

I'd also take a moment to study the refractive properties of an invisible person in various transparent mediums, ie air and water. It would be an interesting investigation.

I always thought that underwater an invisible object would look like a bubble, as it would be transparent space submerged in a liquid. I would also reccomend that everybody see an opaque gas bubbled under deep water at least once in their life. Globes of colour rush to the surface, then dissapear into a puff as they hit it.

I wouldn't steal because others could see the stuff... but I think I'll destroy something.

No, don't worry.

Hrrm. What is it with people becomeing invisible thieves here?

shaman 10-26-2009 11:28 AM

I'm also going to go with settling some old scores.

Bullet Magnet 10-26-2009 12:12 PM

Doesn't anybody else want to use their amazing new powers for the good of humanity?

MA 10-26-2009 12:17 PM

I can't see how you could use invisibility for the good of humanity, if I had healing powers as well I'd sneak into hospitals at night and cure people.

Bullet Magnet 10-26-2009 12:28 PM

The laws of physics have been broken for you. If you can't think of a good way to use that, find a sidekick who can.

shaman 10-26-2009 12:29 PM

If i had healing powers i'd place my hands on the ground and reverse deforestation...

The moral highground is mine.

The power of anonymity can only be destructive, didn't you learn anything from the internet?

Bullet Magnet 10-26-2009 12:34 PM

I'd use it the same way it can be used on the Internet: infiltration for the purposes of study and documentation. I myself have naturalism in mind. I'd get into the BBC's Life... team.

MeechMunchie 10-26-2009 01:24 PM

It's on now. I can see it out of the corner of my eyes. Some cyotes are howling to their cute puppies.

MA 10-26-2009 01:28 PM

BM stop sneaking around the coyotes pups. they can smell you, doesn't matter if you're invisible.

MeechMunchie 10-26-2009 01:34 PM

Now it's scorpion vs. meerkat.

Josh 10-27-2009 02:42 AM

I have a list of things to steal:
HDTV
Fallout 3 game of the year edition
Another HDTV
A new PC
A laptop
Lots and lots of Coca Cola.

Sekto Springs 10-27-2009 08:15 AM

I'm with MA, fuck humanity. Humanity is an unstoppable virus, and no matter how many wars or bouts of mass plague we endure, we always fucking bounce back. We need something supernatural that nobody saw coming to really fuxxor the equilibrium.

Invisibility, going Super Saiyan, being so large and strong that the earth explodes every time you take a step, Akira explosion. All of these sound good.

You just gotta rape shake things up a little.

Bullet Magnet 10-27-2009 10:48 AM

Of course, being invisible necessarily goes hand in hand with being blind, since light must be passing just as easily through your retinas as the rest of your body. Even if it didn't, they would cast a shadow and therefore be visible, and also you would still see nothing unless your lenses and corneas could also refract light in their normal capacity, increasing the likelihood of being seen.

shaman 10-27-2009 10:56 AM

Alright fine, if you're going to be all technical about it, we'll do this.

When you go invisible, you go blind.

However due to mother natures sencse of humour, whenever you activate your invisibilty you also begin to activate your eye - mounted sonar, sending out sound and receiving it back and using a super sensative node concealed in your head to paint a mental image with preternatural accuracy in your mind. Now stop talking about invisibility causing blindness, it screws with the fun of it.

Assholes. :)

Spoiler,

Anywhoo, I think I would use my power of invisibility to:

Check out Holly Willoughby getting changed...yummy.
Go up to Harry potter and slap him whilst saying, "I don't need some pansy cloak".
(this only works if the invisibility also makes your clothes invisible) walk around the street naked.
Fuck with pious people to make them think that their God(s) doesn't love them.

These are a few examples of what I would do.

If I was invisible I would be blind because light would go straight through my eyes.

Somehow it seems more important when BM says it.

You need to carve your way into my niche first if you want to compete.

T-nex 10-28-2009 11:32 AM

I liked it when MeechMunchie said it though :) It made me feel all warm and fuzzy.

Wings of Fire 10-28-2009 11:33 AM

Lesbian.
