AIBU : If your were a superhero

[Alicewond]

You can only have one superhero ability, what would you choose?

I've discussed this ub detail with my 11 year old ds. I would turn myself into all sorts of extinct animals and confound the world!! Dodo one week, woolly mammoth the next. Such larks.

@Floralhousecoat wouldn’t you worry you’d get skinned and end up in a museum?

I'd like to run very fast, do back flips and be able to leap over tall buildings - not quite spiderman or flying but faster then Usain Bolt. A sort of super-athlete/gymnast.

Floralhousecoat Some idiot big game hunter might try to make you extinct again!

@Someoneonlyyouknow what would you call yourself, your have to have a superhero name!

To be able to be invisible

I would be Multivenger which is all the Avengers mixed into 1 awesome Superhero!

@AvengersAssemble would you use your powers for good or evil?

@Alicewond, nope, I have the power to turn into anything so I turn invisible and escape once I've managed to convince the scientists and the world at large I'm not extinct after all.

@someone. I will be the most protected animal on earth, big game hunters won't get anywhere near me!!

I’d have a magic voice that when I samg it would put anyone to sleep for a specified amount of time. I’d use my powers for both good (exhausted parents/insomniacs) and evil (security guard at the Bank of England/beefeaters at Tower of London)

Multiply myself. I'd send one version to work and have a nice lie in.

I'd be a time traveller. Could go back in time to say / do all the things I wished I had when parents were alive. Forward in time to see what's ahead for my family and humanity, might even get to see Brexit happening

Teleportation.

This is the only right answer, btw.

Hi @Alicewond I would use my powers for good. No point in having them if your going to be evil. 😁

Reckon Karl Pilkington has it spot on...

Yy to teleportation (or appiration if we're talking muggles and wizards). I've always thought it would amazing to just be where I needed to be without having to travel there.

I would also definitely want to be able to time travel and stay in the
80's!!

Another vote for teleportation 🙋🏻‍♀️ No more petrol money, traffic jams, smelly buses...

DD2 wants to be the baby off the Incredibles.

Invisibility cloak
ability to waggle a finger and all housework etc done
Also able to eat whatever I want and have the figure of a supermodel (or even just someone not quite so short and fat as me!)

Dh always says he would have the superpower to make everyone agree with him/can't refuse something he asks.

"Hey boss, wanna give me the week off work on full pay?" etc etc

To stop time for everyone except me so I can spend the day doing whatever and not lose any time at all. They’d all be frozen or something.

I wouldn’t age during all that extra time, obviously 😁

I would have Peter petrelli’s (Heroes) power - as long as there were other superheroes in the world - he can take on the powers of other heroes once he’s been close to them.

If I was the only super, then I’d like captain America - to look super hot and not age - yes please!

I need a few, invisibility, time travel and the one where you can go from one place to another in a split second, through walls and stuff.
Initially I would use my powers to make myself rich, then I would only use them for good.
