Superhuman Powers
 
Alright, you get the power for a week, and what would you do with it?

Flying. I would fly.

Invisibility...re-enact the Rhona Mitra scene from Hollow Man.

Invisibility. You can always get on a plane, and if you were invisible, you could sneak on pretty easily.

I don't like this poll. It's missing a lot of good stuff. I would take teleportation over anything else, without a doubt.

What would be the best way to make a lot of money to live on for the rest of my life?

Invisibility, I'd screw every hot chick i knew and they'd never knew what hit them

It's pretty close between invisiblity and flying, though I went with invisibility for a few reasons. Actually, just the girls showering.

I'd like to fly. chicks dig guys who can fly.

why is the ability to regenerate like wolverine not on there? There are so many things I'd like to do if I just knew that there was a 99% certainty that I wouldn't die.

X-ray vision and go play some cards :/

x-ray vision id see everyone naked

More like see everyone's bones and organs.

Any of the powers on this list would get you money and/or laid. So I choose Super-human strength because as a friend of mine pointed out, there's very few positive things you can do with invisibility. I mean after you stole a bunch of money and watched Kiera Knightly in the shower what would you do?

Re: Superhuman Powers
 
Immortality beats them all.

Particularly since anyplace super powers work, immortality gives you plenty of time to pick up new powers (find glowing meteors, ingest weird chemical concotions, hunt for magical/alien artifacts, learn obscure magical lore, etc)

If we're only getting the power for a week, immortality gives you the opportunity to do some crazily dangerous [censored] in the pursuit of more permanent super powers (glowing rocks and whatnot).

Alternately, "super-genius" also gives you the opportunity (even in a week) to come up with some long term super powers, even if just in the realm of super-science gadgets, weapons, armor, etc...

Flying. You know because flying would be such an awesome experience.

Re: Superhuman Powers
 
Of those listed, I think invisibility and flight are head and shoulders above the rest. Given any super power in the world I would definitely choose a regeneration or immortality type power, with shapeshifting a close second.

Re: Superhuman Powers
 
Given any super power, I think teleportation or mind control is by far the best choice.

If I only had these powers for one week, I would be concentrating on amassing a fortune in a way that wouldn't require too much hiding post-powers.

I think flight would be very overrated.

Call me a cynic, but when the Earth is eventually destroyed, you're going to enjoy tumbling through space cold & alone for all of eternity.

I chose invisibility and I would watch a whole lot of people have sex.

This was what I was trying to figure out. Which one would make me a quick, large, sum of money.

Re: Superhuman Powers
 
I would take X-ray vision. I would schedule my power to coincide with the WSOP ME. I would dominate, cause I would know everyone's hole cards AND I would know what cards were coming next.

The ability to grow my fingernails.

If I was invisible I could travel around raping and pillaging and never get murdered. The witnesses would merely see blood floating through the air. Or perhaps I would wear their skin, hah, that is one way to be seen when you are invisible.

Blarg 12-20-2005 10:24 PM

Re: Superhuman Powers
 
Nothing would be as fun as flying. I had another flying dream last night. Damn those are great.

Invisibility to get rich. But it sure would help to have an invisible satchel so people didn't see money rise up and start floating out of the bank.

People choosing invisibility just because they can watch people naked must not know what the greatest thing about the internet is...

Flying is obviously superior.

Re: Superhuman Powers
 
So you guys choosing flying, you are just pretty much gonna have a good time flying around for a week right?

I think flying would get pretty boring pretty quick, also it would be damn cold.

Blarg 12-20-2005 11:50 PM

Re: Superhuman Powers
 
I don't think flying would ever get boring.

I would think that Invisibility and X-Ray vision would be the only two that wouldn't result in gunships hunting you down. I don't see any real advantage to X-Ray vision over invisibility.
