Is there actually any way to give yourself super powers? And I'm not just talking about the idiotic 'accidental' excuses like rolling around in toxic waste or being caught in a nuclear bomb test.

Tony Stark did it.

In a cave.

With a box of scraps.

My crazy thought? What if we all see different colors?

like where i see red, you see blue, but because of how we were raised we each believe we are seeing the same color!

there is no way to test or disprove this, and it keeps me up at night.

I think aliens are human beings from thousands of years in the future, traveling back in time to study us. It's the only rational explanation I can come up with for why they wouldn't invade or make contact. No matter how you shake it, for an alien species to travel all the way here and just take some photos is a bit odd.
When "you" go out into the african savannah to observe and document Tigers, do you try to communicate in the language or tigers or do you just "abduct" them into a strange place with bright lights?
Yeah, but I also don't travel millions upon millions of light years to go see the tigers. And last time I checked, the tigers had been publicly shot, run over, or generally "made contact" with oo-mans a while ago. There's no reason they'd maintain this degree of avoiding contact I can think of beyond time travel concerns.

You know? I've actually been thinking the same thing for most of my life. o_O

Now here are my thoughts:

* If you burp and fart at the exact same time, do you then get a vacuum in your belly?

* What happens if you put a lightsaber against a mirror?

* If you invent something, then go back in time and explain to yourself how you invented this new item as your past self where trying to figure out how to invent said item, what would then happen?

* What would happen if you had gone back in time and brought your past self into your present, and then never ever send him back again?

But how would that work..?
Well, if you had a flammable gas that increased the conductivity of free space, you could replace that with the acetylene. Then the gas would literally draw electrons from the cyborg whilst toasting it.

Although, given the nature of the gas, it would probably be majorly toxic, corrosive and radioactive as well.

Nope, because the two channels aren't directly connected and the exhalation is performed by a spasm of the muscles rather than a pressure difference.

No more mirror. The Photon Blade's heat radiation would distort the material before it had a chance to reflect or refract the blade.

Closed loop paradox. No problem.

Four theories:
1) He would return anyway
2) He would be replaced.
3) At the point of his death, you would be eliminated from the time line.
4) Imagine every atom of your body exploding at the speed of light.

There is a way to prove it statistically insignificant.

Given that colours have a specific range of light in which to exist, we can determine that the light from certain objects is determined by a specific colour name; and the few of us unable to determine that have difficulties with other colours; therefore marking them as the probable mutation.
So, a specific colour is named after the majority opinion of what level of light is reflected from the object; within a common consensus.

Thats not really him having super powers or you could also count Batman as well. I'm talking powers that are actually of a biological nature.

Another crazy thought, is it actually possible to die of laughter?

Does half a bee only half-exist, and does it merit having a song written about it?

You'd pass out, stop laughing, and start breathing, before you could die. Unless, y'know, you were so distracted from the laughing, that you walked off a cliff, or into a shark, or something.

Right question, poor follow-up. If humans interpret the various light wavelengths differently from person to person, the chance that we'd use the same colour pallete at all is rather slim. I reckon it'd be more likely that each person A would see the world in colours that person B can't even imagine.

Except, really, it's a moot point, since, as I said, colour is only the way our brains distinguish between different wavelengths of light. Trying to draw comparisons between them would be somewhat akin to attempting to calculate the mass and density of a two-dimensional man.

Although, a substantially more fun way to continue the question would be: if people see different colours, what happens to sound?

Depends if it's called Eric.

:p Your mom.

If people see different colours, sound wouldn't necessarily be affected as they use differing functions of the brain. Best way would be to ask a Synaesthetic though.

I think that it is fashionable to make fun of people who drive Hummers because of their gas mileage. Today I saw someone driving in a new one and I realized that pretty soon we were going to be in world not unlike the world in Mad Max. So, your going to want vehicles like Hummers then. Roads will deteriorate, and people will probably shoot you for a gallon of gas, so it will put Hummer drivers at an advantage for speedy, offroad getaways.

if every McDonalds says, "over 9 billion served" wouldn't that mean that EVERY SINGLE PERSON ON EARTH has visited mcdonalds at least once?

Not that. People seeing different colours would imply that each human interprets signals in a different way. Person A might hear an octave higher than person B, for instance.

Er, if petrol is such a valuable resource, you'll be wanting a car that goes easy on the stuff. Hummers would be better suited to the landscape, but it doesn't matter if you've got a Harrier jump jet, if you can't get the thing to move.

I got another one, is there any actual, tangable reality? our atoms are held together by nothing, and our senses are just signals hitting our brain from waves and impulses. also, if antimatter is the anti-thesis to matter, what would dark matter be the anti-thesis to? what happens if matter and anti matter colided? what was before the big bang? or was there a big bang and it was just a previous universe the crushed in then rapidly expanded? And if this is true, how long was it crushed in? and what was the previous universe like? was it exactly like ours? or was it entirely different?
