I'd stop Global Warming, deforestation and polluting water.

I'd have the power to beat other people's children and not get in trouble. NO I JOKE! I'd have the power to... maybe fly, however lame that is. Like a bird. No, wait... I wish I had the power to converse with inanimate objects. I would love to talk to trees, or rocks or rivers or subway cars or billboards or speakers or boots or cameras or trash bins... that would be most excellent. Each one would have such a unique perspective on things. I bet trash cans wouldn't be nearly as lame as everyone would assume. Shit. Yeah. I want to talk to stuff. Hmmm. That's my cue, I'ma go take a walk. |

If I could have a superpower, it would be to turn invisible. I would sneak into people's houses at night, act like a ghost, and scare the crap out of everybody. Or i'd just loot em'.
I'm an entrepreneur that way. |
Technically, if you are invisible you should also be blind, or else your retinas would cast a shadow. Your cornea and lenses would not focus any light either.
|
It's magic BM. Logic not come in to it.

It's funny, I can accept that there would be some way to gain and use these powers in this hypothetical scenario, and that (in the invisibility case) light is either bending around a person or passing through unhindered, but I can't accept the inherent contradictions within those powers.
If light is passing through or around you, it's energy is not being transferred into the proteins of the light-sensitive cells in the retina and stimulating an active potential in the optical nerves. In other words, you are not seeing anything. If you are seeing anything, then this must be taking place, meaning that the energy that would otherwise be illuminating an object is being absorbed by the retina, thus casting a shadow. |

Superpowers are fine, so long s they make some coherent sense. Spider-man gets through his own body mass in webbing several times each trip across the city, but I can accept that with comic-book physics. Sighted invisibility, though, is just weird.

I kept trying to think of something to type in here until I finally decided that if it's this fucking hard it isn't worth it. This forum needs some better threads.

This forum needs some better members than you.

What superpower? Easy, the power to grant any wishes. Then I can just make wishes to myself and do whatever the hell I want, whether that's save the environment or just make myself a rich eternally youthful adonis with a harem.
|
So... Omnipotence?
What if you wish for your wish to go ungranted? |
Hmm I'd love to control the time...
|

I suppose I could also wish for you to stop being a smart-alec when discussing the different superpowers. ;) |
No! The source of my power!
|

Though you could just be saying that you want to be able to control every atom in the universe in particular ways, but just didn't want to say that... ... Yeah I'll go with that. Personally, I would want to be able to transfer me mass into strings of energy, and back (if you think about, there are a lot of possibilities in this). Not sure how I would control the energy, but as for keeping my mind when it's energy; the mind is just a bunch of electrical signals. |
Okay, let's not start this whole "time does not exist thing." Please. Also it does.
|
Yeah, if time didn't exist, wouldn't that like mean, every single second we stop existing and start existing again? Or something.
Or never exist and only think we do? Time has to exist. Measuring time doesn't really exist, that IS relative, but the passage of time has to exist. |
:
If not go and read Thief of Time and Night Watch now! |
Whatever, we shouldn't talk off topic.
If I couldn't have time control then I'd like to have a bag with 10000000000000$ in cash. |
