If You Could Have Superpowers

Immortality. Anything else can be attained through that. [/quote]

I think immortality is cool, but it has its downside: what would happen if the planet exploded? Obviously, as an immortal you’d survive, but even immortals need something to stand on. You’d just be left floating through space…

Even worse, what would happen when you get to the end of time and everything is destroyed, except you? Scary stuff :frowning:

I’d want to be able to manipulate time, space, and even cellular machinery.

I’d want to alter muscle-fiber properties (so that my slow-twitch fibers became more like fast-twitch fibers), alter the sensitivity of my insulin receptors, and increase the number of androgen receptors in my muscle tissue.

Whatever power God has. I’d be unstoppable.

As for My Super Power?

I think if you crossed Hulk and Mr. Miagi… Well you’d have one helluva super hero right there. Only I wouldn’t be green, but some kind of blue, like Beast.

But I wouldn’t be all true blue honest Abe, I’d be for hire and shit, straddling the lines of good and evil for my own monetary gain and my catchphrase would be:

“Gotta pay the bills, son!”

And I’d ride a Myostatin resistant bull that wore a chain made of rodeo belt buckles named Zeke and he’d have a big “Z” branded on his ass.

My name would be “Blue Bonnet” because only someone as hard as me could pull it off.

Eventually I’d get all conflicted about right and wrong and fall for a chick with jet black hair and jet blue eyes with a big rack and latex thigh high boots that tries to steer me to into the villian realm for good but I fight against it even though I’ve fallen for her. Eventually I’d be captured and chained to a dungeon wall while Zeke is yoked by five ton rocks holding him down to the ground and my fair lady would sneak in and ask me to just submit and be a bad guy and I’d be like…

“I just can’t do it Lorraine!”

And she’d be like

“But Blue their going to KILL you!!! sob sob sob”

And I’d go

“Then that’s my fate…”

Because really I’m a hero and not a villain and I’d rather take the fall than be a dickhead bad guy and then she’d be like

“I’ll come back for you! sob sob…” as the guards drag her fine ass away and as they leave there will be a full page pic of me with my head hanging low in the chains of the dungeon prison all depressed that I’m going to die, but then I pick my head up breathe in deep and howl:

“YEEEEEEHHHAAAAAAWWWWWW”

Which awakes Zeke into this slobbery frenzy because back in the day he was a rodeo bull and used to get whipped by cheesy rednecks.

So naturally that sets him off and his myostatin resistant ass struggles and eventually pushes him up and out of the 5 ton rocks he was previously yoked under and he comes a charging my way and busts into the dungeon.

I’m so pumped by the event that I bust out of one chain and then another and hop on Zekes back and we charge out of the hole in the dungeon wall and rush up a green mountain to the villians lair where we find Lorraine tied up to a wooden table and whattya know…

The villians are about to have their way with Lorraine!

So I’m like “fuuck that, lets pay some bills son!”

Zeke and I charge in, I go Berzerk and Zeke goes apeshit and we wreck the place, knocking the lead villain out last and piling him on the floor with his henchmen.

I grab Lorraine by the waist and hoist her up onto Zekes back while I walk next to him and we fade into the setting sun falling behind the green mountain.

Last panel, though?

Lead villian cracks his eye open, and says:

“There will be a next time… Bonnet… and I’ll be the one paying… the… bills!”

That’s my take anyway.

Enough with the book report. I’m just gonna assume you want Hulk’s powers. Finished.

What can I say, found my groove and ran with it

A simple enough power the ability to activate black holes whereever and when ever I wanted too. lol

Fixed.

Fuck that noise.

Probability manipulation; perfect luck.

I’d inevitably win the lottery [money], be elected to public office [power, more money, complete abandonment of ethics], and finally stumble across someone with the power to create powers in others [I would of course pick immortality of the Savage Dragon variety].

Or the ability to activate the pleasure receptors in the brains of others. I’d be walking around town, and everyone would be too busy getting off to notice me robbing the bank.

If Vash had the pleasure receptor thing… I would let him keep that unmodified and unadulterated

why dont you just take steroids?

as for me. mind control, its not robbing a bank if they deliver the money to your doorstep and the cops arent going to arrest you if they think that by doing so their heads would explode.

id also convince my haitian neighbors to not act like fuckwads, stop listening to shitty music and not let their kids play in the street at 1am during one of their birthday parties.

i guess i would have had to have read the article first

I want to have the force. I mean, what cant a jedi do?

On a side note, would you rather have the force or a lightsaber?

I already have both. I wish other people didn’t have lightsabers though. That hasn’t worked out well for me.

Seriously though, I’d probably want a crazy healing factor. You’d have no lingering injuries, likely instant recovery and adaptation from workouts enabling you to get super strong, long life span without necessarily living forever.

Telekinesis would be my second choice.
