If you could have superpowers, what would they be and what would you do with them?
Bored so here's a random thread. If you could have any special abilities what would you want and what would you do with them? I would want the power of Empathic Mimicry (Peter Petrelli's original ability on Heroes). It would allow me to mimic the powers of others through empathy and to use them at my disposal. What would i do with it? I honestly have no idea.

Invisible shield. Not only for my protection but so I can place them in doorways of people I don't like.

I will take immortality like Vandal Savage.
Quote:
Savage was immortal, meaning he did not age and had healing abilities that allowed him to survive any injury that would maim or kill a normal human being.
Being a prehistoric man, he was already exceptionally strong before his transformation, and continued to grow in strength to a nearly superhuman level.
His long life gave him vast knowledge, a genius-level intellect, and great technological inventiveness, which includes the invention of the time machine.
Finally, because Savage had literally "all the time in the world," his plans, when sprung, were always well-prepared in advance and difficult to upset.

I was going to say immortality, but the prospect of being buried alive or hurled into space would freak me out a little.

Tough one.
It would either be time travel to get lottery numbers or invisibility to hang about a college volleyball dressing room and la senza etc etc

It would be good to be the Hulk and just beat people senseless because you can.

I'd like the ability to heal people's ills - cancer, depression, whatever it is. I'm sure there's a more appropriate superhero that does it, but I'm thinking along the lines of what the alien can do in the movie Paul, LOL.

Mind reading... Selective mind reading, of course. Id be a bajillionaire and slaying the ladies left right and center with my vast knowledge of the business needs/wants of billionaires and the sexy needs/wants of the ladies.

The ability to augment breast size by touch. Could make good money taking a piece out of the plastic surgery pie but I worry that old ladies would show up wanting the saggers adjusted

Not me...Do you realize how long you would have to work? Not to mention you would outlive everyone you ever fell in love with. Sounds like a horrible curse to me!

Supermans powers for me (as long as nobody knew about Kryptonite of course).
He pretty much does it all....strength, speed, X-ray vision, shoot lasers from his eyes, time travel. Where do I sign?
Oh, and what would I do with them? Go back in time and kick Hitler in the nuts, Stop 911 and everything in between.

While i do think it would be a lonely existence, I think witnessing the evolution of mankind would be pretty tempting.
