SURVEY SAYS: Super Powers

Those who chose to give a reason said: 

I could take a nap and nobody would know. 🙂

So I could explain to my cat Cocoa, that it is Saturday and I do not need to get up at 5:30 am!

could move or lift anything

I chose commanding people with your thoughts so that I can get my kids to do what I ask them to do.

The ability to appreciate someone fully before expressing one's self might make our world a better place to live ie. the Golden Rule Love thy neighbor as thyself.

Would love to see cool places around the world without having to deal with traditional travel methods.

I chose flying, although I didn't think through the whole landing part.

Enough power to be life changing, not enough to be evil.

By becoming invisible you have achieved the ability to "be a fly on the wall".

I could stop a crime, just by commanding the criminal to stop.

Because when you can hear people's thoughts, artifice is gone (Pouf!) and you know their true thoughts and feelings.

Live by the beach, work downtown, take the kids to Venice for pizza dinner, and Northern Lights to relax before bed. -Or just an additional 1-2 hours a day to spend with my family and friends.

Each would be soooo useful in certain situations! I could send the annoying, back-stabbing ones to another place and let them annoy and back-stab somewhere else for a change....I would have bouth IBM, Apple and Microsoft when they were really young....and held on for the recovery! Travel without the torture....the possibilities are endless!

With this power, there would be no wars, no anger and no hurts.

Too many people in this world are hurting; to take away a person's pain would be an unbelievable gift.

Having the ability to make objects/people disappear would be extremely useful in all aspects of life. Having the same conversation for the umpteenth time about why a whiny employee is actually not underpaid? Poof, s/he disappears! Tired of cleaning up the house? Poof, make that clutter disappear!

Family is the only thing that matters is the only legacy for most of us.

Reduces time wasted in driving or walking between places!

Mind control is pretty cool yo

My kids live on the other side of the country. I would love to teleport so we could get together more frequently.

I did not choose any super power because I feel that any one power would only involve exposing other areas of weakness.

We share the planet with a vast variety of creatures that we assume we have the right to control. I'd like to hear their side of the story and become more "humane" and thoughtful in our use of resources, and no I am not a vegetarian or animal rights activist. I do believe in kindness and in preserving and protecting the natural world.

Because it's very lucrative if used correctly

I'd like to have dinner in Paris tonight...

to get somewhere quickly

Go where you want to go, when you want to go.

Best way to travel!

I've always dreamed of flying. Literally, I dream I can fly sometimes and it's awesome.

My life would be just like the movie Groundhog's Day. I would keep at it until I got it just right!

Beats being stuck in traffic.

Diet and exercise are a struggle and it would be great not to have to dedicate time and energy to them. Wouldn't it be great to automatically just "be" fit?

so I could be with my children who live far away whenever I want. They might not like that but I would love it!

I could go anywhere, anytime, even if just for a meal. I could also take a weekend trip to say, Rome, and not have to worry about wasting time in airports or on planes.

Great for moving that slow driver in front of you!

I would love to be able to influence people without them knowing that I am doing it. What fun that would be.

I know no one has bad thoughts about me but it would be nice to know who my friends really are.

I would love to be able to spend more time with my mother. It would also ease many peoples pain.

Then I could see/hear what people are really doing and what's really going on behind the scenes--i.e., kids, coworkers, bosses...

would like to be a fly on the wall and listen

It's a no brainer.

If you've got your health, you've got everything.

Teleporting would save so much on time and gas

That is the only way to have real peace.

It would have come in very handy for last night's Powerball drawing!

When I was young I wanted to be Samantha Stevens and be able to do all those fun things with a twinkle of my nose or snap of my fingers!

The first choice you listed was first because everyone thinks that would be amazing.

If I could turn my hearing off for or mute certain people at will I wouldn't have to listen to my co-workers in-depth and impassioned not to mention lengthy discussions about what happened on The Bachelor and General Hospital. Nor would I have to hear unending brilliant discussions about fantasy football teams and energy drinks.

That would open the door to many opportunities.

Good all-purpose power that would serve me well my whole life.

It was a tough decision between invisibility and teleportation; both give me the ability to "disappear" from unnecessary time and life-sapping meetings.

Because I could get anywhere quickly!

Because this job is hard and confusing sometimes. When I come home from work and see my family, I think that this is what Clark Kent must feel like. Because they have no idea what I've had to deal with all day!

Might help do some good. Turn things into food and tools that people ca use. Turn bad people into ... something else!

Invulnerability would eliminate a lot of my fears. BTW - you also left super-strength off the list.

My first choice is teleporting, but having extreme strength is really appealing when I'm trying to open a jar of spaghetti sauce.

Speed and ability to get anywhere

be able to stop disease & injuries from killing those I love

Flying seems to be the ultimate freedom.

Animals have this ability to know when things are changing - like the weather - long before it hits. They look at you as if they are trying to tell you something very important, but can't get you to react. I'd love to know what they are thinking.

I chose time travel because it would interesting to see my ancestors, historical figures and learn about history directly.

think of the money you would save on airline travel. You could take instant vacations

Snow piling up everywhere, it'd be nice to make that disappear and issues with a certain family member...In college I used to try to disappear annoying people and it never worked.. it'd be lovely to be able to do that.

Not sure becoming invisible is a super power, but it would sure benefit ME! How awesome would it be to have access to anything you want without restriction? Sitting in on the President's cabinet meetings would be fantastic.

If I could BE a superpower, as a person with great leadership skills, I'd be president of the United States - for somewhat obvious reasons....

You can do lots of things without getting caught if no one can see you.
