I'm curious why 60 people chose the ability to read minds - how that would enhance their lives? And why only 5 people chose super-strength. And those who chose 'the ability to change your appearance or turn invisible' - those are two very different options, so which one would it be and why?
Which superpower did you choose and why? |

I chose "change your appearance or turn invisible" because I always hate people staring at me and always wish I was invisible..even sitting at work or walking down the street. And Id like to be able to change my appearance because I wish I was prettier or skinnier
and I USED to wish I could read minds, but I really wouldnt bc I would hate to know what certain people are thinking bc I know I keep a LOT of thoughts to myself and I would NOT want people to be able to read MY mind or thoughts...Id be commited or in jail! |

Yep, my thoughts exactly on the mind-reading thing. I imagine most people would really hate it it if they actually had that ability!
I'm surprised more people didn't choose super-strength. People are often posting about how exhausted they are - a dose of super-strength would totally boost energy levels and increase quality of life tremendously. |

Mind-reading because I'm nosy! But we don't know exactly how it would work, right? So I mean, there could be rules, and it could be that you were allowed to choose one person at a time to listen to or whatever.
But since obviously it's not actually possible, that was just the most interesting option. Being invisible would be a good one, too, though, because then you could hide and listen in that way. |

I'm not sure what I chose... I think it was the one to become invisible and change physical appearance.
I could trick people *cackles* And ability to read minds would be so awesome! I could totally shock people by narrating their thoughts *cackles* |

Being invisible, because I would love to spy on people of interest. That being said, it would probably get boring quickly... But also I could steal money and shit :-D and have super freaky sex with my bf lol. Change my looks so I could be better looking.
I didn't see the strength one like that. I saw it like "what, so I could lift cars over my head? Pointless." but now that you've put it like that, I would have chosen super strength for sure. |

I can see a What Women Want-esque scenario happening if I were able to read minds. But I also firmly believe in Murphy's Law. heh
I picked the ability to fly, simply because I've had dreams in which I've flown, for many many years. |

I wouldn't want to know others' thoughts, so I wouldn't want to read minds. There's probably stuff in there I'm better off not knowing. Becoming invisible or changing my appearance seemed interesting and fun to play around with for a short time, but not very useful. When would I ever use it? I'm not one for sneaking around.
The idea of super strength really appealed to me. To be able to get all of my housework done, to homeschool my son, to play with him and the dogs, and still have enough energy to do stuff I want to do for myself? That would be great! So that's what I chose. |
