What Superpower would you NOT want under any circumstances?

[Treaos Serrare]

Laser eyes, seriously, cyclops is the best example of how fucked up that power is, then again his are always ON not a consciously activated power, so I'm not sure if that counts.
in lieu of that Midas touch, and being able to create things with your mind. the Midas touch is kinda self explanatory, but the mind thing; well imagine if you make stuff when you are asleep, you could suffocate under a mountain of crap or what if you bring a nightmare creature to the real world, i don't know bout the rest of you but the kinda shit that pops into my nightmares is not something i wanna face with real consequences(fucking land sharks and marlins stabbing and devouring you)

the other downside to super speed

 

[Irony's Acolyte]

Pretty much all the regular super powers without the mushy physics.

Super-speed? You'd probably catch fire or something due to the amazing amounts of friction you'd be getting from air alone.

Time-travel? Go back a month and end up in the same spot... which is currently in the vacuum of space.

Most are pretty crappy unless you have a bunch of other powers working together to keep you from accidently killing yourself with one of them.

 

[YonderTunic]

X-ray vision, even if you could control it. I do not care how awesome it would be, I can guarentee that at some point you WILL find something that you did NOT want to see ever, and it will haunt you for the rest of your days.

 

[Krantos]

Laser vision.

Can you imagine having to wear Cyclops's eyepiece during sex?

Other than that, anything I couldn't hide (i.e. Hulk, Thing, etc.). I'd want my powers to be under the radar.

i agree, its that or a seriously juiced up brain capable of calculating limitations and coordinates

 

[nbamaniac]

Having Green Lantern's ring. I seriously lack imagination. All i could make would be vaginas.

 

[Fiz_The_Toaster]

EXPLOSIVE DIAREAH!!!!!!!

Or the power to turn inside out.

I'd imagine having that power would turn you inside out. Ugh, messy.

OT: Being invisible, that would mean I'd have to take my cloths off. And what if my cloths disappear? That's embarrassing.

oh god that would be so disturbing*shudder*

 

[Kuranesno7]

time travel or reality manipulation in general. you would be the only one who knew that things changed and you'd be the only one to notice that the people you loved changed. You would be God, and what have you seen mortals given godlike powers do to the poeple they observe when their bored.
And really, I don't want to have sex with someone in the past only to find out I indirectly brought caligula or Glenn Beck into existence.

 

[Tommeh Brownleh]

Anything that prevented me from being stealthy. Playing Splinter Cell has taught me that its always better to sneak by and never be seen than to run in and kill everyone in sight, so I don't want big muscles, a sonic scream, MAYBE super speed if I could still have quiet footsteps, really the only power I WOULD want is invisibility, clothes included, and the ability to make everything I do silent.

 

[xxmyhero64xx]

Any size changing ability. I grow too large and I just cause more mayhem then I can prevent. I grow too small and I get to face my fear of spiders X 100.

 

[Daniel Allsopp]

The ability to read minds when you choose to would be awesome. But imagine if you could never turn it off? You'd constantly be hearing the dumb and disturbing stuff people are thinking about. Or worse, complete silence... And imagine being in a crowded place, you wouldn't be able to hear yourself think (Hur hur hur).

Edit: Damn ninjas. Here's another one then: The ability to cry acid.

 

[Ilyak1986]

Mind reading, because I really don't want to know what others are thinking. Imagine what you could learn about people. *Shudders*

And imagine the money that could be made by robbing everyone blind in Poker or Blackjack.

 

[The Apothecarry]

I would hate being a living electricity conduit, like Cole in inFamous. Sure, I can electrocute mean people or infinitely charge my laptop or iPod, but I'd never be able to take a shower without killing myself.

 

[automatron]

Teleportation. It sounds cool until you end up in a wall...or someone else.

Surprise buttsecks?

OT: The ability to knock people out with your stench.
You'd just stink

 

[jonyboy13]

Most of the good guys' powers. "With great power comes great stupidity."
Jokes aside about the ridiculous moral code, I'd go with super speed. One blink and you are smashed all over the wall. That or Batman's superpower, his "dark" voice.

awesome if you could turn it of and on as you want though. probably not manny superpowers i wouldn't want (i mean SUPER power, not something stupid that's not super at all.) Most powers i wouldn't have would be like midas touch, things you can't controll at all, like if you had super hearing so anyone standing near you shouting would just destroy your hearing.

My answer: i'd take any superpower as long as i can control it and turn it off whenever i want to. (which is reasonable for any superpower)
