If you could have any 5 super powers,

or any 1 collosol power (such as the ability to go back in time, blow planets away, mind control large masses of people at a time ect... Basically any super power which would be overpowering, or over the top),

Which super powers, or 1 Collosol power would you have?

[I_Like_Plants]

the power to spell.......

[NEOPO]

The ability to blink people like plants out of existence yet only temporarily, only to frighten and only when they become all anal retentive about proper grammar

Oh and a quick bmp. image of thier faces taken exactly at the time they realize they are in Yellow submarine Jeremy nowhere man land, sent via email to the nearest computer with a printer in my vicinity

The Beatles - Nowhere Man
Yet my personal favorite is The Beatles - Eleanor Rigby (1966)

Ok - I can see you really want us to play this game just like Jack wants us to pretend to talk to the president.
I think we're cracking up:?

Ok 5 super hero powers?
I know it is your game but thats alittle excessive dont ya think?
O Lanoo, This has occurred many times before and what you end up with is a bunch of super characters who cannot die, can destroy anything and who basically sit around bored eating chips and drinking mass quantities of soda pop all day insinuating that you are not a good dungeon master or something!!!

They appreciate thier powers much more when they have to earn them.
We are not good with things that come easy like oil for instance.

I would want the power to speak Chinese. I need to know what my future overlords have to say about my frozen country and how I fit into their plans for turning my backyard into a rice paddy.

Also I would like the power to keep from staring at Jessica Alba.



Well actually scratch the later one. I like to be mildly entertained while I eat Chicken Chow Mein.

[Jack]

Just one colossal power.

The ability to quickly, easily edit all elements of reality in all dimensions including space and time while maintaining personal immunity to the consequences of such edits.

Thus, I could modify the gravitational constant G on a whim. I could decide that a poster's great grandmother should have had blond hair instead of brown hair, and would give him a silver shilling with the word "rosebud" scratched on the face back in 1947. Or, I could decide that the supernova which created the Crab Nebula went off so I could watch it tomorrow evening instead of whenever it actually occurred.

So, how to solve the current problem with overpopulation? Back in the early 1950's, the U.S Agriculture department came up with the Green Revolution, which increased crop yields a lot. Arguably, it began in the mid-1940's when US Vice-President Henry Wallace took a tour of Mexico and, with Ford Foundation funding, helped them increase yields.

So, instead, Mr. Wallace would have had more interest in the hardships of residents of Appalachia. He would never have gone to Mexico, USAID would not have created the Green Revolution - and so the population of the Earth would be at 2 billion instead of 6.5 billion. Thus I would have deleted 4.5 billion people without screwing up my karma any worse than it already is.

How's that for a power?

[I_Like_Plants]

OK I'd have Jack's evil and creative sociopathic imagination

But it looks like I have a power, the Power To Annoy Neopo!

[Laughs_Last]

1. cast no shadow or reflection
2. be burned by garlic, holy water, and sunlight
3. exercise total stoicism
4. turn any alcoholic beverage into pure water
5. talk to bees about location of pollen relative to location of hive (requires dancing)

As god, I would proclaim my own divine failure in creating humankind.

And then I would snuff out the human race before the ongoing mass extinction of non-human life goes on another day.

[lateStarter]

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('DesertBear2', 'A')s god, I would proclaim my own divine failure in creating humankind.

And then bring about the total extinction of the problematic warring human race before the current ongoing mass extinction proceeds another day.

[RonMN]

I would choose the superpower of wisdom!

[jboogy]

NEOPO-"end up with a bunch of super characters who cannot die, can destroy anything and who basically sit around bored eating chips and drinking and arguing...etc."hearty chuckles, I'm thinking you've examined this scenario before NEOPO?

I think Jack kinda pulled the royal flush too with his "the power to basically bend all the laws of science at any time for any reason"

I'll play by the rules Kylon though I think 5 is a bit excessive.

invisibility,flight,erection at will,super duper lazers out of the eyes would be cool,and....indestructable

jessica alba? on her DIRTIEST day!

[hubbertspeak7777777]

I'd choose x-ray vision, so I could see what all the hot chicks look like naked.

[SeasonOfPain]

Silly thread.

I'd want telekinesis, of course, so I could hurl all those idiotic SUVs off the road as they pass me. Wanton destruction... oh it would be so gleeful.

Especially the ones with those retarded soccer stickers on the back.

Yes, I only drive 60 miles a week now and get road rage every time.

[chris-h]
