Making inflated objects explode with my mind.

Car tires. Birthday balloons. Bubble wrap. Bagpipes.

Yes, I'd be a villain... or at least a vigilante. Don't run that red where I can see you... pop pop pop

How is this not an S-tier power? Did you forget that lungs are inflatable?

Photosynthesis would be really nice. Even if it didn't totally replace the need for food it would be cool.

The power to always pack exactly the right things that I will need when I go somewhere.

I just want to get the USB in the right way on my first attempt. Is that too much to ask for?

[โ€“] Spasmolytic@lemm.ee 9 points 2 years ago

I wanted to reply with an image of USB C that appears Holy because it is your savior, but this was the closest thing I could find.

Perfect hearing man.

Might finally get rid of my tinnitus and I could hear silence again.

Having a hydrophobic presence covering me at all times, sans wanting to shower, drink water, etc. so I could run, bike, hike in the rain and never get wet, unless I wanted to.

Another fun one would be having the ability and skill to cook anything I want without training or recipes. However, I would gain an excessive amount of weight though.

I always thought it would be cool to be able to imitate any sound effect. Totally useless but perfect for jokes.

To be able to put together the perfect response for any interaction I ever have man

"always knows the right action" is a S tier power in the superhero book "Worm."

It basically meant the person could accomplish any goal, even if it took 1000 actions.

A Tier? AAA ranging on Universe Killer Tier. The perfect response becomes the perfect negotiator, the perfect social infiltrator, the master manipulator. He casually gets free coffee, he cajoles his way through national secrets, he convinces his landlord that the concept of income through scarce resource stockpiling is immoral and that they should see the property as a shared commodity. Genius

I alread have my super power and love it: high definition vision in low light conditions.

Bright lights hurt my eyes and I only get my supervision in b&w but it is really useful.

I already have. Things break 10 times faster when I touch them.

Gets the USB-A the right way the first time man, which is really an underlying true power of like a glove man, where no matter what it is, it will always fit - like a glove.

[โ€“] Kase@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago

I'll take always being able to understand what people are saying, even if the voice is muffled or on a low quality recording or whatever. In conversations, I'd never have to ask people to repeat themselves.

(It doesn't mean I could understand any language or code, just that I can correctly make out the words.)
