If you had your choice of super-powers which one/s would you choose?
Limit yourself to known super-powers .. you know like those that really exist
LOLS ..
nah .. you know like Super Man .. super-powers (SP).. Invisible Man SP .. or like Hercules SP .. or any of the Greek god-like powers .. or a mutant like the X-men .. make up your own ..
or what about being a god ..
... mmm .. i could go being a god .. if you were a god what would you and could you do??
mmm .. i like it!!!
ok so who or what would you be and what are your powers?? what could you do?? .. would you champion a cause? would you use your super-powers to do some good .. or to make bags of money??

There goes my thread about immortals down the drain.
I`d like to be Wonder Woman - in fact hubbie already thinks I am
I like the way she handles herself in a fight, like the lasso thingy - no man is gonna get away from her if she so desires, she has a cool invisible plane and the costume is pretty cool (just have to make sure I maintain my figure and a tan for that one).
Oh, and I forgot - doesn`t she have those funky wrist bands that can deflect bullets and stuff?... And the headband that acts like a boomerang? .. or is that a figment of my imagination?
Don`t think I`d be greedy - just fight for truth, justice, and the... erm..... democratic way?

I think the Power of Invisibility, coupled with major league strenght, and the ability to summons flaming balls of disintegration and desecration from your hands and tossing them in the direction of those you don't like.....would be cool.
It's kinda like Charmed meets Superman with a bit of Invisibility tossed in...

Invisibility would be among the coolest. But I know that I'd never leave the women's locker room, and I'd waste my entire life. So I'd have to pick flying. Which is cooler anyway.

Hmmmmmm...I always thought being able to fly would be incredibly cool! I've had a few dreams were I could fly and these dreams still stick with me to this day! It was an amazing feeling (although, in the dream I did need to get a running start!)!
Invisibility would be cool but I'd prefer to be more of a participant than a spectator...Let's go for some form of mental control or maybe even the ability to change into someone else (Ala Mystique of X-Men fame).

I've always thought the ability to teleport from one place to another would be the coolest. Go anywhere you want, put FedEx out of business, etc.
Reminds me of a joke, but it's on the adult side (gleaned from the movie Hollow Man with Kevin Bacon)
So one day Superman is flying above the city. He looks down and sees Wonderwoman sunbathing completely naked and thinks, "Man, I'd like to have a piece of that... Well, I am faster than a speeding bullet. I could fly down there, do my thing, and be off before she even noticed." So he does. A second later Wonderwoman sits up and says, "What the hell was that?!?
"I don't know, but my ass sure is sore," says the Invisible Man.

Funny, that joke actually popped into my head as I was reading this thread also! I just didn't have the nuts to post it! Very funny though!

Well ladies, there is the perfect reason for why a girl shouldn`t marry Superman.

I would choose to have both invulnerability and increased strength; adequate enough for me to pick up a truck, and throw it about, say........to Pluto.
Then no bad guy could stop you, because you's just put a fist through his chest.

I wouldn't want super powers! The burden would be too heavy, and power corrupts, they say.

I would want super intelligence. It is the most useful power anyway.
Astral projection would be a good second I think.

For reasons that are too complicated for any of you to understand, it hasn't done as much for me as one might expect.
