Default If I could have a super power, it would be....?

If you could have a super power, what would it be?

After watching the Xmen 3 and Superman returns trailers, my kids asked me that. I told them, my power would be the power to mentally invoke uncontrollable diarrhea on my foe. Imagine facing off with the Green Goblin or somebody.... as soon as they raise a hand to me: "Uh,...oh... ooohh, I gotta go, I'll get you later!" Goblin runs in shame.

Imagine I'm trying to get a good parking space and some guy tries to cut me off....

Imagine one of my co-workers in a meeting tries to take credit for some of my accomplishments....

I don't know why but my kids thought this was a riot. "Yeah," my 11 year old replies, "but Dad, that means Diaper Man would be your arch-foe".

My super power would be one of three countrys

1) Great Britian once again
2) Japan
3) Germany

Reasons:

Britian has always had a great naval tradition and need to be asserted once more a stong navy would do us justice

Japan cause thier modern fleet is just well mouth watering

Germany cause they make excellent looking subs

Ok il go back to dream land.

Kapitan, i think you just missed the point

I'm Supermann and i can Fly

I realy don't know which Power i would like to have as they do influence your environment so much that it either would have only local effects or you would have to "work" all over the world.

Imagine the new Infantry Wounder weapon "Oncle Neal the diarrhea King " :rotfl: :rotfl: Call the Pampers brigade

I'd like to be able to turn myself invisible...


....for obvious reasons


But on the more serious note, the real advantage would be I could sneak upon terrorists and other scum of this earth and put a few slugs in their necks. I'd be the Elite stealth assassino

If I could have a super power it would be the ability to TOTALLY ignore people who are just obviously ignorant and naive about everything but think they know it all.

To be able to fly, that would just own everything else. Imagine just walking along and fwoosh, and you fly home, and avoid gas prices.
