If you could have 1 superpower, what would it be?

Remember everything you've ever read or heard.......and use it for the greater good than the bad.

In fact, some savants seem to have this "superpower" (at least about read) but strangely it's always associated to not understanding the meanings. What a pity

Where is time travel? D:

Where is manipulation and control of matter? I have thought long and hard and that is the best ability for me I refuse to vote without it

Teleportation, because the world is huge and I don't have time to see it all! Oh but I would have to be able to teleport other people with me (future wife?), otherwise it wouldn't be worth it.

I'm with this guy

But if I can't have manipulation and control of matter I picked flight. I can go anywhere and the process of getting there would be freaking fun. If I could control matter, though, I could just chill on a comfy sofa and fly everywhere.

Teleportation would be cool, but you'd miss out of the awesomeness of soaring like a bird.

Oh yeah, I've studied this. All savants have a prodigious memory of a special subject but the issue is that it is not an understanding. So some psychology rebutt it saying that is it not about intelligence; it is about recognition. So these people can recall information quickly but they do not have the ability to put it to any use. Most savants have a form of autism and vice versa but that doesn't necessarily mean it happens with every savant. Nonetheless, its an amazing "disorder". I quote disorder since it is still in working theory. It is neurotypical since there are low-frequency magnetic pulses into the frontal left temporal lobe which is used to control language.


/ending Te moment..

First of all, why have 'super speed' and 'walk through walls' on the list if you're gonna put 'teleportation'?!
Second of all: "I wouldn't want a superpower even if I could have one"= laaaame!

It's between these:
Telekinesis- I could reach an epic level of laziness!
Create and manipulate fire- Avatar: The Last Airbender!
Create and manipulate electricity-Just cool...
Read Minds- I often wonder what goes on in peoples' minds and I'm tired of having to just sit around and imagine.
Remember everything you've ever read or heard- My memory for specifics is not the best, but I read a lot and do lots of research on random things that interest me. It'd be reeeeaally nice if I could remember it all
Teleportation- I could explore as much as I wanted to, for free. I could also get away from my adversaries
Transform your shape- Awesome-ness.

I'd have to go with teleportation, though. I really want to be able to explore the world. Wait...maybe I could 'transform my shape' into an airplane do my 'splorin' like that!

I would want super human acrobatics/jumping-but it wasn't there so i said speed. i'd use to screw around stalk people.

Oh, just do quick little teleports through the air then. :D

I chose "Remember everything you've ever read or heard" because it's the closest to my dream-superpower: being able to learn languages automatically, and apply them flawlessly.
