    Well the title really says it all.

    What would you have?

    Super strength? Super Speed? Able to fly? X Ray Vision? Invisibility?

    I think I'd want to either be invisible or be able to fly.
    Probably the invisible one though, I could go everywhere for free.

    i would have the super power that would allow me to have all the super powers i'd want.

    invisibility, easier to rob things that way


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 22,559 ✭✭✭✭AnonoBoy


    The power of stain removal for me.

    Clearly you want the power to invent super powers.

    Don't think it works that way.
    Didn't for Superman or those anyway...

    Invisibility.
    I'd love to know what goes on in some places when they think i'm not there..

    EDIT: Fixed for Anonoboy :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,328 ✭✭✭cafecolour


    Either the ability to freeze time or the Wolverine-esque self-healing body bit.

    The reason every bloke picks invisibility is because they want to look at women in the shower. Don't let anyone tell you any different.

    The power to see next weeks lotto numbers

    Everyone wants really crappy powers.
    I'd be like Superman if we all had these powers...

    One Superpower?
    I'd go for the Chinese; a great bunch of lads.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,526 ✭✭✭m@cc@


    I'd say invisibilty but that could end up being lethal. You could get hit by a car or anything. I'd like to be able to control time but I suspect I'd end up abusing it and lead an unfulfulling life. I've thought too much about this. :o

    Being able to go back in time. I could do good deeds, buy property back when a house only cost £100, see who really shot JFK.. it'd be great.

    Yeah, great minds think alike...but, either you happened to start responding first or else your mind thinks a tad quicker.
    Can't be your assistant, though; my ego is too large.

    or he types faster. which would mean he would make a better assistant

    Never heard of a strip club then?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,001 ✭✭✭✭opinion guy

    Try looking at women naked. (You're not blind are you ?)

    So, are you gonna be Peter Petrelli or Sylar?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,026 ✭✭✭Gulliver


    What powers you ask? I dunno, how 'bout the power of flight?
    That do anything for ya? That's levitation holmes.
    How 'bout the power to kill a yak, from 200 yards away...
    with mind bullets! That's telekinesis, Kyle.
    Or how 'bout the power... to move you?

    Seriously though, invulnerability would be so cool.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,647 ✭✭✭✭Fago!


    Rapid healing.

    Pfft!

    I'd love to be able to click my fingers and make people dance.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,001 ✭✭✭✭opinion guy


    Try looking at women naked. (You're not blind are you ?)

    Hmmm I should clarify as to who should be naked. If you want to see women naked then you should look at naked women as opposed to being naked yourself - that might get you in trouble. Come to think of of either might get you in trouble. Hmmm I'm starting to see why this might qualify as a superpower....


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 22,559 ✭✭✭✭AnonoBoy


    Which band? Who rocks that much?

    Chic?

    Their suits are so white they gotta be on the Cillit Bang bandwagon!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,190 ✭✭✭✭IvySlayer


    Anonoboy, you are not Barry Scott.

    BANG AND THE DIRT IS GONE!!

    How's that for a better impression?

    And to answer the OP, ability to fly.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,089 ✭✭✭ascanbe


    or he types faster. which would mean he would make a better assistant

    Given the relative brevity of his initial post, though, we could have started at the same time and despite being the faster typist, i would still have posted later; there are so many variables at play that, ultimately, we'll never know.
    Anyway, as i stated, i'm not available to fill an assistants position.
    If someone wishes to apply to be my assistant, i'll consider all offers.
