Superhero - 1 Power

Boom_Bap

You can become a superhero, you can have one power. What would you go for, invisibility, flying, x-ray vision or leave it to chance to be bitten by a radioactive animal?

I'd for flying, I'd get to the shop in no time to pick up chocolate milk. I could go for speed, but I'd imagine negotiating traffic would be tricky.
I just really hope that chocolate milk wouldn't be my kryptonite.

Ruu

Anything I touch turns into cheese. Not soft like feta, Brie or Camembert because that would be disastrous.

My super power would be Booms Baps sidekick!! We could have matching leotard and tights. Mine would have a gigantic P and yours would have a big fist to show your boominess!!

We would save the world one beers night at a time!


:pac:

The fist may give the wrong impression.

No it would be in the shape of a bro fist. You know a kind of solidarity symbol.

Oh wait. Maybe that's a communist symbol. No you don't want that.

mikeym

I would make it rain money :D:D:D:D

Like a modder from Grand Theft Auto

Your Face

I'd like to have the power of love.

maudgonner

The power to have all the powers!


(Shut up, you didn't say I couldn't)


Also, why don't you just give yourself the power to lactate chocolate milk? Cut out the shopping altogether like?

I bet you'd use them for evil as well.

KERSPLAT!

The power to open automatic doors 2 seconds earlier

Nothing worse than walking up to one and getting a good wallop because they're slow as ****!

The AH Beers could take a strange turn alright...

You'd better make the left one chocolate milk and the right one vodka, Boom.

Wha, you don't want to be Stalinman?

Tombi!

I'll take a page form Eric Cartman's book:
I am Bulrog and I have lots and lots of powers.
So basically whatever I want.

I'd go with a sort of telepathic power - not complete mind control. A sort of senses manipulation. Seeing things different from how they are, etc. Along with being able to sense what the person can (IE I could see what John in the house three doors down sees). But of course nobody knows that I have that power.

If it's a power that people know about: Hulk. Government try to murder me? Hulk comes out. I'm safe then.

Samaris

Teleportation. Although it'd need to have an inbuilt "pushes things carefully out of the way when I arrive" thingie, because teleporting -into- someone else or a tree would be really awkward.

Yeah, I've thought about this one before...

I was thinking of something along the lines of HessMistress.

Even chocolate milk won't have me change my mind!!

tomwaterford

Time travel....even if just backwards I'd mess things up to see how much a difference it really makes


Also possibly turn up to a lot of famous world events caught on TV camera in a Waterford Jersey just for the randomness of it



Edit: yes I wouldn't use my superpowers for much/any good....just having the craic for myself

What about Mint Chocolate milk?

failinis

To be able to cure any illness in myself or others (or at least find the cures for incurable things - not like some Jesus figure healing people) :pac:

This is getting weird now.


A good whiskey and you have a deal >.>

Fr_Dougal

The power to heal the sick.

And it can stop right there, for me So many fantasies to live out. Maybe even touch a (sleeping) ladies boobies?!

Renegade Mechanic

Pick things up and throw/manipulate them, without actually touching them. Plenty of uses for that.
Pick up tonnes of nearby water and fire it over a burning building.
Fire a rock at cannon ball speed at someone/thing.
Push my car along the road so it uses feck all fuel.
Loads of uses...

Ah but you have Boom offering his (her? :pac:) baps to you

Time Travel
(I'm posting this from next week)

I would like to have the power to create magical worlds from books and bring all of the characters to life. So there would be a Westeros and a Shire and a Narnia. The only thing different would be no badness or evil doing. The rivers would flow with Hoegarden and hunky dorys would hang from the trees.

There would also be an After Hours world where all of the posters would live in harmony and with kindness for each other. We would skip through fields of lavender with our hair blowing free.

I can see the Shire...and the Westeros. Even the Narnia.

I'm struggling with the After Hours Happy World though. O.O

I'm pretty sure you'd regret that. Maybe not the first 10 or 20 years of it, but by year 150, having watched your children and grandchildren die, you'd see your super-power as a curse!

When my time-travel superpower arrives I'll check how you feel about your immortality in 2166 and report back to you next week.

Barry Badrinath

With the click of my fingers...

*click*

A meal! No shop, no prep, just grub.

The power of mind control.
Being able to give people a good mind **** anytime I liked

Yeah I'd probably regret it for a while but I'd eventually get over it life goes on.

Rothko

The ability to go back in time

Don't be so skeptical! The nice posters will have clones to help the happy vibe along.

The Sidewards Man

A boards.ie cop.

A clone? Of me??? We'd kill each other and destroy the kip in doing so.
Or we'd get on like a house on fire and destroy the kip in doing so.
Clones = bad. Someone once told me that my one redeeming feature was that I killed my twin on the way out, as she wouldn't have been able to deal with two of me

Hmm well in that case you might not be the type of inhabitant suited to my magical world. The clones help increase the loveliness vibe but everyone else is also lovely.

Are you lovely RM?

major bill

The ability to know what a girl is thinking so I know who to talk to on a night out and who to avoid

RobertKK

The power of invincibility.

RayM

The ability to travel back in time and change history, like Sam Beckett in Quantum Leap.

I would also use this power to go back to the 1940s and sing Beatles songs, claiming that I wrote them myself, like Nicholas Lyndhurst's character in Goodnight Sweetheart. Might do something about Hitler too, if I have the time.

corner of hells

Eurovision man , I'd have the power to win all Eurovisions for ever.

Dodgy. Once ye go there? No coming back.




Okay. That whole concept is now wrecking my head ....!

bogwalrus

Time travel. When i get bored of that ill just go back in time and make another choice.

The ability to always make the right decision.

timmy880

I was going to say time travel but can you handle the responsibility of knowing all the bad things that are going to happen in the world? Nah.... Fly... I would like to fly.

cowboyBuilder

I'd have the ability of my knives coming from my knuckles ..

keano_afc

The power to stop time by putting the tips of my fingers together, like that kid in that American sitcom from years ago.
