    Imagine if you got a superpower for coming out to yourself. Which one would you want and why?

    For example, I think it would be pretty useful in a practical sense, to have a fully functioning gaydar (since at the moment I have just about as much of a clue as the screen you're reading this off does). :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

    But I think it would also be pretty cool to dissapear in a cloud of rainbow coloured smoke and teleport to somewhere awesome. Like the top of a roof. (!!) I could host a party on a roof and nobody would be the wiser. Except for the great music, and the awesomeness that would be radiating from said roof. And people would say "damn, that's a rockin' roof party happening there." and I would be like "join us!". And all would be well in the world.

    I was thinking of the ability to read minds or at least read emotions like a Betazoid.

    What if your power only worked half of the time making you look like a fraud to some people? Would you still use it?

    If it worked on a 50/50 basis, and it didn't work the first time around, I could try again and again until it does work.

    I imagine the screen I'm reading this on has alot better idea of how to spot gay people than I do...

    I would also choose that one.

    Although if that one was taken, time travel definitely.
    I'd go back to poor little 13yo me and just be like
    "You're gay bro, don't waste your time not knowing.

    Turning guys I like into gays, that'd be very practical, I guess.

    I would have the power to grab anything I wanted from any type of screen (TV, Computer, Projector, etc.) and using any item that I grab for it's intended use, unrealistic or not. (Like pulling out a time manipulator and using it even though you normally wouldn't) My possibilities would literally be endless.

    I would love to be able to create localized time distortion. So let's say, at will, slow down (but not speed up or reverse) the progression of time in all other reference frames except my own, within a space of three meters (spherical) with center on my center of mass.

    Definitely would want to be a super genius. Then I could just create anything I needed.
