Choose Your Ability: Invisibility or Flight? *POLL*

[BrokenVisage]

This is one of my favorite poll questions of all time, I've posted it before but felt it's been long enough to be asked again and decided to bring it back.

So for all you new people, here are the rules:

Flight: Within the Earths atmosphere at speeds up to 1000 MPH without harm.

Invisibility: You are perfectly transparent, you can become visible and invisible at will. All items on you at the time of changing become invisible, so if you picked something up or spit the object/loogy would be visible.

Taking into account these restrictions, which ability would you rather have?

 

[Safeway]

Invisible voyeurism.

 

[blurredvision]

Easy...invisibility. It's offers many more opportunities.

 

[NikolaeVarius]

Invisibility. If you fly, you run the risk of being shot down by the Air Force

Both have downsides.

1000mph is still slower than the average jet can easily travel in order to shoot you down with machine gun fire alone.

Invisbility serves you absolutely no good when most environmental variables - water being splashed on you, dust being blown over you, heat-sensitive cameras/lenses aimed at you can all compromise your position.

I'd probably go with flight simply because out of the thousands of ways I could possibly be killed through the normal course of my life, being able to fly would be EXTREMELY likely to see me live through the encounter than being invisible.

Edit: Not to mention to all the closet nerds on this forum who've never actually been in a social scene or had to interact with a woman in the real world, I'd MUCH rather be able to use the pickup line "..so, have you ever wondered what it would be like to fly?" and actually be able to perform on the boast and score the woman of my dreams with the opportunity for countless romantic endeavors. Spying on chicks is great if you're into chronic masturbation. I'd rather have something so cool to show them I'd get laid through proxy. Talk about a way of making the mile high club have a whole new meaning.

Avg jet? Really?

Invisible. You could always sneak onto a commercial flight for free.

Perhaps I should have been careful in my post and made sure to add stipulations so anal retentive retards like you wouldn't come in and try and be a smartass to fan your own ego.

Allow me to re-iterate. Considering I live in AMERICA, and to my knowledge the most common active U.S. Airforce fighter is the F-15, which happens to have a top flight speed of almost 2,000MPH (1875+MPH since you want to get all technical and arrogant) - then YES, 1000MPH is MUCH slower than the average U.S MILITARY AIRCRAFT I would be likely to encounter.

 

[Captante]

Invisibility.

Slam-dunk.

How would you stay out of everyones way?

Flight, without a doubt.

More importantly, who the hell would want to stand up the entire flight, assuming there were no empty seats.

Kind of an odd reason. Definitely not on my top 10 for if I was able to become invisible. Though I'm pretty biased, my top 5 would all be ways of making money and the next 5 would likely be ways of taking over the world.

Your pompous, self serving answer made me laugh after your response to me.

 

[Baked]

Flight > Invisibility. Too many people think like mortals.

You'll simply have to forgive me, it wasn't personal, I simply couldn't fathom why out of everything you picked that to pick on.

Maybe my response came out with a lot more malice than I originally intended. Either way, it's not often I use emoticons, but ..

 

[ObiDon]

i voted for invisibility just because it would be fun screwing with people by making things move around or fly at them.

however, if i was able to fly, i think i would use that ability to be the world's fastest pizza delivery guy!

Invisibility would only be used for immoral sexual or thieving purposes, but flight would get you tons of sex and has the opportunity to make plenty of money. Plus flight is more fun.

 

[FreshPrince]

flight will score you chicks to bone

invisibility will only score you the chance to jack off in some lady's room...how lame is that?

The real question here would be; who the hell would you find to fabricate the swing-harness you'd need to attach to get some good midair fellatio?

 

[RESmonkey]

Can I travel to other planets given that I grab nuff oxygen with me? And given that I don't somehow die?

Yes, but with invisibility YOU get to pick the chick.
