Pokemon. Just Pokemon.

Assuming I'm not granted the ability to fly a ship like a badass, I don't want to live in the Freelancer world.

I'd live on the Discworld. Seems to be one of the less dangerous universes. And if I do die, at most I'll just be annoyed instead of terrified.
This is definitely my second choice after the world of Pokémon.
Living in a world where everyone is a lovely, sweet, charming and helpful person (apart from a small rag-tag group of misfits) sounds like heaven... or Canada. The rag-tag misfits being Cancer Bats, of course.

Well since I can't get super powers and I can still be myself, the only logical option would be... "School Rumble"! I mean, if I were still in high school, the world would be a lot more fun to live in.

I'd choose to live in the future presented to us by Ghost in the Shell, there's really nothing there that would be unattainable to someone resourceful enough. Even if joining an elite group like Section 9 is unreachable it's still possible to get a prosthetic body and cyber-brain, which means access to the net anywhere you go without having to lug around any external device.

The universe in the Culture series. Post want, post anything threatening apart from isolated cases. What is there to dislike?

Possibly My Little Pony, because that world seems generally a good place to be, and to the extent that I'd be a freak there, it'd mostly be as an interesting oddity. "5 bits to see the hairless ape! Roll up, roll up!" - being a freakshow is probably a pretty sweet gig as long as you can make sure your share of the take is reasonable. On top of that, I could spend time trying to upgrade the low-tech parts of the schizo tech they have, and possibly learn enough to get other elements upgraded too.
Only thing I have to worry about is making sure nopony ever finds out humans are omnivores. Or just make sure it gets explained by the means least likely to result in my death by angry mob, depends on whether any of the animals Fluttershy cares for turn out to be carnivorous.

Alternately, I might go with the setting of the Culture series by Iain M. Banks. I'm sure if I was just dropped there I'd be able to join, and susequently have a pretty awesome life. Unless this just results in me getting dropped randomly on Earth at some time covered by the Culture series (which is hundreds of years and might land me in the 19th century).

And on that note, Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure and Meet The Robinsons both have awesome futures, so if I end up in those time periods of the settings, things can be pretty good.

Also, possibly Minecraft, because I can rule a world hundreds of times larger than Earth is.

Maybe the Artemis Fowl setting, because that's basically this same Earth, except for the super-technologically-advanced civilization of Fairies. So then I'd just be me, in my normal life, but with secret knowledge about said civilization, and in-depth knowledge about the only humans to contact them without memory wipes. Let the games begin. *Kira laugh*

I'd probably have to spend a few days thinking on it and planning if presented with this offer. So many choices.

Or of course, I could just go to the 40K universe, because then when my choice inevitably results in a horrible, horrible screaming painful ouchie death, I won't be surprised when it happens.

Mass Effect 1

I sign up to be a colonist, go out to Zhu's Hope, hope Commander Shepard's taking the Paragon route, then try to hook up with a green asari.

If I could use magic, the Dresden Files Universe...

If not, Ghost In The Shell, gotta love the cyber brain idea.

Fallout!

Preferably during the events of Fallout 3 because hey, the Capital Wasteland is awesome...As to why I've chosen the Fallout universe, well, no one in it is a super human. You could argue that the Lone Wanderer goes from 'Zero to Hero' which is what almost anyone could do if they were placed in that universe...assuming of course they were dropped in Megaton first, whored themselves out for a gun, then went training...yeaaahhhh...

Either Pokemon, because it's an easy choice.

Or One Piece, because I get to be a pirate. And all I need is to each a fruit to gain super powers. And it's not just limited to those kind of powers either.

The planet Caprica in the show with the same name. Right there at the peak of technological development. Holobands also look very neat.

Not a pony, eh?
...
Fuck it, I'd still go. It's not like they're going to perform gruesome tests on me like what would happen if a pony were to enter our world. I'm sure Twilight would do some research on me and I would be free to leave, and I could help out with stuff that requires hands in case a non-unicorn needs help carrying or using something.
I could hang with Lyra, everypony would grow to accept me and I'd live happily ever after...
Ahh...
...
Come on science, I'm not asking for much. Just an inter-dimensional portal to Equestria, thas'all!

Pokemon. No excessive danger, and awesome pets with magical storage containers. Either that or maybe Kingkiller Chronicle series, because I have enough education to enter the academy, if at a high tuition, and it is possible for anyone to learn sympathy, and sympathy is badass.

I would live in the Mass Effect universe after Shepard has saved us all from the reapers yet somehow kept the Citadel and Relays intact. I would either be a Quarion or Geth. Quarion probably. Make things more interesting.
Well, I think by the rules of this thread you'd still have to be human. But would probably still be a cool place to go.

ninja'd

The One Piece universe would be awesome. You wouldn't even need to eat a devil fruit for super powers. Just have a dream and you can kick through stone or cut steel. I would probably go with being part of the Marines instead of a pirate because characters like Garp show that they aren't always uptight.

Mass effect, would friging love that world, even the ordinary people have crazy awesome stuff happen.
Alternitivly Yahtzee's MogWorld, it'd be fun to run into Jim during the infusion.

Oh or the Being human world (UK version).
