Such superpower doesn't exist.

No, but if I ask for this one chances are good they'll let me have some form of omnipotence instead :)

I would want the power to think and have things be destroyed. But only when I'm awake and in full control, because who knows what my dreams hold.

That way I wouldn't ever have to sit in traffic jams, and I could destroy all the smart kids during a test, thus creating panic, as well as being able to set the curve. ;)

Peace,
GermyBoy

Mind Control would be great, but it would be bad controlling people. Super strength wouldnt be so bad, like the Incredible Hulk kinda strength. So many things.

I'd like the super power to be able to snap my fingers for a desired amount of money. :D

I'd like other super powers too.. but right now that one seems fitting.

I'll take some of that Jedi Powers. Mindcontrol, speed, agility, and so many other goodies wrapped around in a neat little package I call the Force. :D

Or I'll take that stop time around me thing.

I'm surprised nobody has mentioned the ability to become invisible at will (clothes and all). That's what I'd want. :)

That probably isn't what you were referring to, but tough sh!t. That's how I feel.
Being a relatively new parent I already realize that being a great parent does/will require greater superpowers than any comics character could hope to have! And thanx for the advice :)

Yes, yes I did. Just read it again and found that specifically mentioned once... and it was for 8 hours only. :p

Now that poses an interesting philisophical debate! I tend to agree with the Highlander theory that watching everyone you love grow old and die while you don't age at all would be like being sent to hell because eventually you would become insensitive and refuse to get close to others resulting in your either going insane or becoming a monster for all intents and purposes.
