discussion You wake up tomorrow with a superpower

[Dip!]

Something I think about every once in a while. You wake up in the morning with a superpower (just the one, no Supermans powerset cheating nonsense)
Everything else about your life and the world is the same.
Whats your super power, how does it change your life and do you let people know about it or do you hide it to avoid becoming a guinea pig or designated
public enemy No. 1

Personally I'd go with telekinesis and never tell anyone. I'd have some extremely lucky roulette streaks in vegas and never get stuck behind someone
who is camping in the overtaking lane ever again.

Live in fear that the government or some organizations will kidnap me. And also freak out because i am Christian and this will shake my world view.

I would want an incredibly subtle power. Good luck super power? If thats not an option, the power of painless shapeshifting. I can stay fit and if i choose to reveal my power, imagine the fun you could have with painless shape shifting.

With shape shiftting i could find some way to make a separate being or one with a physical connection to me still. Give them their own brain and stuff. They can help me with whatever and i could have some fun with them.

The power to turn on happiness for everyone, including myself.
Or simply cure depression

Control of time for the win. Of course, that is more "god-like" than "superpower."

complete time control is the way go forward back and pause time. so many possibilities

Hm. Quick side question? If you could choose between a superpower (not including time control) or a functioning time machine (think DeLorean, not TARDIS), which would you pick?

Probably the superpower, because there's just way too many ways to ruin everything with a time machine.
