Worst Super Power Ever?

[Bohner239]

Pinecone Grenade Hand.


That explodes BEES.

All of them. At least all the major comic ones.

You would be more likely to damage yourself with super strength. Or damage whatever you where trying to work with. Think of how much force you would be applying with the tiny little points that are your fingertips.

There is no way to be invulnerable without not existing.

Telepathy would be confusing as nobody actually thinks in clear defined words and sentences.

Living forever sounds great but might actually be the worst curse of them all.

Something like what Doctor Manhattan had sounds even better, the man is basically a god. Problem is he is still a man, and even worse then that he no longer has choice. Everything he has done will do and is doing he has already done. He lived his life of eternity in an instant.

Super speed would kill you with out being super tough. Flight would be useless without being able to go super fast, which again would kill you unless you where super tough.

Most would take so much energy out of a person that they would be rendered useless within minutes or seconds.

I guess the only ones that would not completely suck would be an advance healing ability, or telekinesis. I always for get about that one, but it would seem to be the only real major power of the comics world that does not suck.

What about... MAGIC?

Do I get sparkle fingers every time I make jazz hands? Cause if so magic wins.

It's magic, you can do what you want.

Immortality (from Cracked.com)

Okay, after the first, say, few hundred years, everything's still fine and well. You've seen a few generations of people live and die, and had this happen to your family. Oh well, they were likely douches you could live without anyway at some points. Companionship is companionship, or so you think.

Not so fast: You know how when you were younger (by human terms, a child), an hour seemed like forever to you? As people grow, their brain starts to perceive time differently. An hour feels like less time. Now extend that logic to a year, or a decade, or a century. This means that eventually, you will be completely unable to form relationships with human beings because their lives and deaths will flash past you like a tape on fast-forward.

Let's keep going into the future, since you're a sociopathic recluse and think you're still okay with this whole immortality thing. There are so many things that could go wrong with the planet, an asteroid strike, nuclear war, the LHC, but let's assume the planet somehow makes it through all that without being reduced to dust.

Five billion years from now or so, the Sun expands into a red giant. You survive the first roasting, but nothing else does. The Sun eventually rips planet Earth into rubble with gravity. So now there you are floating in outer space, drifting along, or getting a bitching tan at the heart of the Sun so you can pick up some killer alien chicks in the Andromeda galaxy if you ever get there (you won't).

Either way, a few trillion years later, the universe starts to really show its entropy. Every where is the same. No stars, no planets, no black holes, just an empty, cold mass of subatomic particles that can never come together again. And you, floating along in the void. Forever.

Oh man, that would be SO awesome.

 

[Zersy]

The power to vomit out your internal organs and painfully return them into your body.

Isn't that a real condition ? or something some animal does ?

 

[Time Travelling Toaster]

The ability to make my fingernails grow or shrink on demand.

Meg's power in the Family Guy episode :?

The ability to remotely switch electric items on and off.

Oh, yes it would. I would be floating around like a biscuit... why a bsicuit? Well, I could say anything there and it would have as much relevence to the situation... apart from maybe a completely habitable planet. XD Anyway, floating... like a biscuit.

[ben---neb]

I have the ability to predict when someone is going to quote me on a message board.

The ability to die at will would be pretty useless, it's a bit of a one trick pony, use it once and that's you for life.

But imagine the possibilities.

"Isn't she so adorable you could just die?"
"Well actually."

Ok, that would be comedy gold.
