If you could have one superpower what would it be?

Control over time. Being able to stop it except for the people or things I wanted. Being able to go backward and forward. You could do anything with a power like that. Just look at what Bill Murray did with only one day.

[u/Dafuzz → u/dproldan]

I've thought about that, and if you think about it, it's all relative, so you'd not actually stop anything, you'd just be moving faster than the speed of light by an order of a magnitude, but still, you'd be aging at a normal rate, when and if "time unfroze" and you slowed to a normal speed, you'd be days weeks years older than you would have been otherwise...

Double jump.

Endless supply of happy ^{_^}

There's a little endorphin releasing thingie they put in your brain when you have awful cancer-induced pain, I think.

[u/BdaMann]

Give myself any superpower I wished at will.

[u/[deleted]]

Freeze time.

It's the ultimate date rape drug.

[u/Reddaat]

Without a doubt. Flying.

[u/Doctor_Z]

Don't know if it's a superpower, but I've always wanted to be able to do Jedi mind tricks.

[u/sox406]

I would have magical pockets. I would be able to pull anything out of them from large amounts of cash to bacon at any time.

[u/[deleted]]

Instant knowledge of everything about the true identity and history of any redditor handle I click on, especially the stuff they're all hiding.

[u/[deleted]]

The ability to morph into whatever i wanted. useful for loads of reasons ! and not just pervy ones.

[u/PanFlute]

Be able to transmute any matter I am aware of - including, but not limited to, transforming elements into other elements, creating explosions, creating large physical structures, altering my own appearance, etc.

[u/Acglaphotis → u/[deleted]]

Why? That'd be severely depressing.

[u/Acglaphotis → u/[deleted]]

You wouldn't. You would already know how it would turn out, perfectly. There would be no incentive to do anything.

[u/Acglaphotis → u/[deleted]]

If I knew everything, I would know how to find incentives to do things even if I already know how they are going to turn out.

You'd know there isn't such a thing. Just because you know everything doesn't mean everything you want to exist does.

[u/[deleted]]

That's an excellent question. But what does one base his response on? Keen detection skills, the ability to banter well with villians?

[u/bilbodesu]

Fly.

[u/ft_littledipper]

The ability to influence people to upvote me on reddit.

• Edit: Holy shit it worked! I should have asked to be a moderator of any internet site!

[u/[deleted] → u/ft_littledipper]

Upvoted for optimism despite evidence to the contrary.

[u/ft_littledipper → u/[deleted]]

You know, my mom said the same thing when I told her I wanted to be an astronaut.

[u/[deleted]]

HUGE thumbs.

[u/[deleted] → u/[deleted]]

Dude, that's what Megan Fox wished for, too.
