Exactly once a month, I find a 20 on the ground. It can be anytime of the month and it can only be once a month. How great a feeling to find a 20 on the ground and no one is around?
The 20s are coming from scumbag people like jerks who donβt pick up their dogs poop or are mean to customer service people.
Taking photos with my eyes. Would help a ton with getting pictures of cool bugs without having to fiddle with my phone and get defeated by autofocus
Being able to find the exact book page or moment in a Netflix series where I was when I fell asleep last night.
Or when my cat starts to make her first vomit sounds being able to beam her from the carpet to a floor with tiles in a split second.
Not require sleep, ever, with no ill effects (fatigue, mental issues, shortened lifespan, etc).
So much time is wasted sleeping. I have too much shit to do! It's 2am because I was up getting some code working for another team at work, and we just moved, so I have tons of unpacking to do!
The ability to control the temperature (and perhaps humidity and/or composition too) of air within 1mm of my body. Like a personal air conditioner. Would make going outside right now so much more bearable, pretty sure it would help with sleep too... Sigh, one can dream...
Lie detection
Being able to manually adjust my focus on and interest in what I'm doing.
Someone once mentioned slowing time for like 2 seconds as a terrible super power, but as a skateboarder, I think this would be amazing.
The ability to know exactly the right thing to say at any given time. Because I often do the opposite right now.
I want an audibe achievment fanfare everytime something i do goes according to plan.
Zoom with my eyes! I love birding, having prismatic eyes would be neat.
To be able to stockpile time up to 24 hours. For example, if I'm running late on a project, I can dip into a time stockpile for 8 hours to get it done. At a later time I can then lose 8 hours from my time
With the example given, I feel like my go-to super power would still be applicable here:
Whatever I draw, I can make real. The first thing I'd draw is a pill that allows me to draw better.
Superhuman patience.
- never be bored.
- fall asleep instantly.
- pee and poop teleported straight into the toilet.
- grow fingernails back quickly.
- know how to do anything, but lose all memory of the thing when trying to do it, tell anyone, or record it.
- ability to shapeshift, but your bones and muscles are going to hurt like hell. You think breaking a bone is bad? Try having all the bones in your face rearrange themselves.
That I could tell someone to stop doing something and they'd actually listen and stop.
Maxed out luck stat
I don't want to know something would go well, I want to be surprised when something goes well
Not have a panic attack when someone is mildly displeased with me
Every morning when I wake up my clothes and dishes from yesterday are cleaned and put away
The ability to not mind driving a car. Like whenever I need to drive somewhere, I just completely black out and my body drives perfectly while my mind is full out. Then my mind awakens as soon as I arrive hand have finished parking.
This superpower is called living in a country with a sane public transportation
Shark hands, because it would be awesome
