Supa Powa!

My friend Christopher asked me this question yesterday: If you could have any superpower, what would it be?

Since he grew up on comic books (and by 'grow up on' I mean that is ALL he ever read as a child) he had his answer all ready: Wolverine's power to heal, his immortality, and his near-dauntless strength.

Frankly, the idea of accidentally stabbing someone when I shake hands, watching my loved ones die, and being around for the stupidity of man to endure...scares the shit out of me.

So I thought and I thought...I weighed all the pros and cons...I thought of every comic and superhero I knew...then made up my own quirky superpowers (i.e. the ability to eat whatever I want and never get fat, the ability to have a fatal fart)...

Nothing. I couldn't come up with anything at all. Because honestly, even if I had the most insignificant power ever, I would still be geeked out enough to think it was the coolest.

Maybe I'd want the ability to make you pee your pants.

What do you think? What would you want as your super power?
