If you had only one super power...

what would it be?

Mine'd be Superman's ability to see through walls, well for the obvious reasons

Amz · 06-02-2004 11:29PM

Wisdom

I'm severly lacking in that department (amongst others) so would like super wisdom

User45701 · 06-02-2004 11:37PM

It would be the abality to be invunrable.

When you said 1 super power i thought u ment nations. Most people belive that in the future there will be just 1 super power and it will be china

bus77 · 06-02-2004 11:38PM

Id like to be able to walk really really fast:D

Ban people from After Hours.

passive · 06-02-2004 11:43PM

It's be covered in ****, not very nice tbh. I'd rather like to be able to create money from Water.

To be able to control peoples minds (ergo, use all your superpowers to my best advantage)

Kold · 07-02-2004 02:58AM

Invisability....

Scratch that... Omnipotence

passive · 07-02-2004 03:47AM

Omnipotence

cheater....thats lots of powers rolled into one. the fact that its one word doesn't mean you can pick it anyway!

BEAT · 07-02-2004 05:48AM

I would like to be able to freeze time everything stops except for me for however long I needed it to. That would be cool...

Snap a finger freeze time, take an ice cream cone from a kid walk away and snap back the kid is licking his hand , yum

Mossy Monk · 07-02-2004 08:35AM

to teleport, that would be really handy

User45701 · 07-02-2004 08:44AM

Turns his eyelids inside out boy was quite powerfull.

amp · 07-02-2004 11:32AM

I'd pick the ability to fly. Not only would this make me immune to Dublin traffic but I'd be able to write a whole new chapter for the Kama Sutra.

Mad Mike · 07-02-2004 11:37AM

X-Ray vision

Sorry dementor just realised you beat me to it. By the way did anyone ever actually send away for those X-Ray specs that used to be advertised in the back of comics?

Tusky · 07-02-2004 11:56AM

The ability to throw people away REALLY far , sure i wouldnt be the ultimate superhero. Id be a quick fix hero until superman arrives

that gets my vote:D

kano476 · 07-02-2004 12:59PM

flying would be brilliant because if life gets crap you could just fly away to the canaries or something and just chillout there for a while and then go back home when your relaxed enough or maybe not and just go on a round the world tour for free! you would have to fly pretty fast though like twice the speed of concorde and have some sort of guiding map with you.

i wonder if i flap hard enough on my roof i could fly?

omnipotence is impossible. if you were omnipotent, could you create a rock so heavy you couldn't move it?

ps BEAT, thats my super power

Gordon · 07-02-2004 01:19PM

Yeah flying too, but I'd prefer some kind of levitation flying thing as I wouldn't want to be flapping my arms wildly to get to a crime scene like Kano.

As for the omnipotence question: It depends on what you wanted. If you wanted to create a rock so big that you couldn't move it then you would be able to create it as you are all powerful. The key is what one wants.

yes but with my speedwalking ability Id be able to walk back really fast:D

blondie83 · 07-02-2004 01:34PM

Definitely flying, without flapping your hands wildly, you'd have to be able to just step off and go up into the air, and control where you want to go with your mind. It happens to me a fair bit in my dreams, and is a really nice feeling:)

Raphael · 07-02-2004 02:12PM

yes, but the definition of omnipotence is the ability to do anything. If you could create a rock so heavy you couldn't move it, you wouldn't be able to move it, therefore you couldnt do everything. but if you could move it, then you wouldnt be able to create a rock so heavy you couldnt move it. therefore omnipotency is impossible

Flying Defo However I would Need a GPS system or i would be lost straight away

PrecariousNuts · 07-02-2004 03:01PM

It would have to be immortality, I'd love to see how the universe ends.

DUX · 07-02-2004 03:21PM

Definetly I would like to be able to read other people's minds.....

then make a dinner reservation with milliways

ferdi · 07-02-2004 04:44PM

invisibility, deffo

TheSonOfBattles · 07-02-2004 04:53PM

I'd pick immortality as well, i'd pick that on the day the earth was created, so was I, and I lived through it's history, evolving as nessecary to be able to observe it's species and advancement and history and to die with it. Flying and all that's nice, but the above would be interesting, and the ablitly to observe a world's lifespan would be cool.

If you had only one super power...
