If you could have magical powers what would they be and why? I would be able to teleport so that way I could........teleport?

I think I would settle for the ability to talk readily to total strangers of the female kind.

I would be invisible so that I could mess with people. But then I would be afraid it would turn out like Hollowman. I just wouldn't make as many enemies, and I wouldn't be as ugly as Kevin Bacon. Posts: 925 | Registered: Nov 2004

Mind control, teleportation, self-resurrection, telekinesis, telepathy/empathy, the ability to rip through the fabric of time and space, control of lightning and electricity, light and dark sides of the Force, etc.

No, because the limitation would be that I could only deny one person his or her powers, and as soon as I wanted to take on someone else's powers, I had to restore the first person's.
I'd use it for good! I wouldn't take flying from someone if they were in the air, I promise! Posts: 162 | Registered: Dec 2004

I would like the ability to answer any question correctly and completely, even if it's a question I asked myself, and even if it's about the future.

"What should I do next?" "Who loves ya, sweetheart?" "Why?" "How much wood could a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?" "What's so special about 7-foot lizards, anyway?"

I think it would be neat to have ears that enlarge and shrink at will. Good party trick n'stuff.

Actually, I can wiggle the outside of my nose, but I want to be able to wiggle the middle. Like a bunny. I can't wiggle my ears at all. Posts: 7954 | Registered: Mar 2004

How, exactly, could you prove that with a picture?
I now have three current and one future member of my family registered on hatrack. If you won't accept their testimony, I'm afraid you're just going to have to keep on not believing.

I thought about wanting the ability to control fire, but I don't smoke so the trick where you light a cigarette/cigar with your finger would go to waste. I also don't live anywhere with stuff to burn and what good is fire if you can't burn stuff with it? I thought about telepathy and mind control, but even I don't trust myself with that. I think it would be sweet to fly. Oh and maybe super human speed thrown in. Yup, that's all.

I was just talking about this earlier tonight with my friend. He wanted the ability to count really fast.
As for me, the only "super-power" I ever thought was really cool was being able to pause time. There was some Saturday morning live-action show about a girl who could do this that I used to watch when I was younger. I loved that idea...

I'd love to just be able to grab a person and know what they know instantly. It would save so much time. Rather than spend 50 years learning Russian I'd just grab some Russian dude, put my hand on his head, and boom! Instant Russian!

The ability to speed up or slow down time at will, coupled with eternal youth for me and my sweetie.

Some powers would be great to have so that I could find out the answers to nature-of-reality questions. Like super-microscopic sight, so that I could watch what was going on down at the quantum level.
Or time travel/super warp speed/super invulenerability, to be able to go all the way back to the start of the Big Bang and see what REALLY happened. (And, ideally, if there was a previous universe, travel back into that one to see what it was like and what happened to cause its end.)
(Then, if I was really bad, then I could hang out at quantum physics conferences, and make obnoxious comments like "Superstring theory? Yeah, right!")

Right at this point in time, I wish my superpower would be to control the water, and be able to push back tsunamis before they reach the land......

Oh yeah, Raia? In that I'm not dating, I'd have to travel time and have the potential to have to travel the entire globe to reach my girlfriend. So I win.

Well, if Jamie has the teleport power, I'm going to go ahead with telepathy/telekenisis. I like messing with her head.

One friend had a family crisis. The rest all drink and so I stayed in, drew cartoons, and watched movies. Posts: 14745 | Registered: Dec 1999

I had a Bloody Mary, realized it is not much different than how my brain feels all the time now, and decided to read until we had a sparkling cider toast at midnight.
For a power... Um... to instantly be able to help others feel better, no matter what their situation.
