If you could have one superpower, what would it be?

Btw, I see that regenerative healing is the most popular choice. It shouldn't be if you still experience the pain.

Why?  I have regenerative healing.  I can shoot as much heroin into my body as I want.

And OD over and over without dying?

Wouldn't invulnerability be more useful than healing?

I'm somewhat drawn to mind control, but that seems like it would be ethically dubious...

I think I'll stick with my curling broom +1. 

Would invulnerability prevent you from getting surgery?

I feel like with invulnerability, immortality is not implied.  If it is, you're right, it's the obvious choice.

Inmortality is not something desireable, IMO.

Mindblasting Nerds.

I'd use it to steal nuclear weapons, threaten to detonate or disintegrate them unless student loan reform was enacted.  Or unless a hundred beautiful young women with some sexual experience, but not, like, you know, a gross amount, were delivered to my headquarters.

Steal the nukes, then drop them on the nerds.

I mean, it's two-three billion years at most.  At some point, you're going to stop functioning/be incinerated as the sun heats up, even with "healing."

Actually, immortality up until about 1990 would be pretty great.  Now and going forward, it'd be very, very hard to keep assuming new identities or to hide your "inheritances" from the authorities.

This is why I should have chosen telekinesis.  With telekinesis, you can just make scientists' and their families' heads explode until they come up with a way to make you immortal.

after a millennia you'd probably be bored out of your mind.

Regenerative healing, if it includes immortality.

It does not.

Wouldn't it be simpler just to mind control them into coming up with immortality, since ethics obvioujsly aren't a concern for you?

Ed already is, and he's not *that* old yet.

Then fuck it, that's lame.

I only have telekinesis.  Mind control would be dull.  Too easy.

Flight. I would travel anywhere and everywhere.

I'm fine actually.

Glad to hear it.
