With great power comes great opportunity to abuse it.

Hmmm...Flying is out of the question because I'm wuss at heights...Super Strength...I'm not that type of person. Ya know I'll say the hell with it and go with ability to speak with animals. If I want someone to be squished, I'll get an elephant, if I wanted a flying monkeys from Wizard of Oz reactnament, I'll talk with monkeys, if I wanted any supervillian destroyed I'll order a stampede, etc.

That or psychic powers...maybe.

Not only do I not have to call the next day

Do gay guys have to worry about that sort of crap at all?

A few weeks ago I was hanging out with a buddy playing Mario 3 or something. His roommate left to go somewhere, leaving the two of us alone, and I jokingly commented: "Great, now we can have butt sex." And he said: "We could, too. It's a shame neither of us wants to."

That's the main problem with being a straight guy. For whatever reason, girls don't want to just fuck. Like, there's all kind of shit that has to go along with it. In a guy's world, you'd just walk up to some nice chick, quite possibly one you've never met before, say: "Hey, wanna fuck?" and they'd be like, "Okay, sure." Then you'd walk off to wherever, get it done in fifteen minutes, go on your separate ways, and neither of you would have to deal with each other ever again.

If gay guys think the same way, then it must be paradise for you lot.

I have no idea. I've never experienced sex first-hand. And I'm a big, mushy, sentimental, romantic sop, so chances are that I'd be the one who wanted a day-after call and not recieve it.

If gay guys think the same way, then it must be paradise for you lot.

That's the stereotype, but the gay guys I've met (including me) usually don't feel that way. Most want a long-term relationship, but there has been the occasional random screw - but it really only happens as much as an easy straight screw.

I tend not to be drawn toward the "stereotypical", debauched, random orgy gay guy crowd anyways. Although it does exist, it's not as large as the media portrays.

I'm gonna to with the classic Invisibility. The pranks I could play, the things I could see, the stuff I could steal... I would, obviously, use my powers for evil.

Quite true. I have met quite a number of gay men, me being half dyke myself, and most of them are of the romantic-sappy-squishy-looking-for-a-relationship type. Unfortunately, they always seem to be attracted to the let's-have-lots-of-sex-and-nothing-else type...

There <I>are</i> girls like that -- unfortunately, the stigma attached to women who fuck a guy without being in a relationship with him keeps women from saying yes to such a situation. There's also the old "what if he tells?" fear.

Hmm.. as for a super power..

I would love to have the ability to change into anybody I want, anytime I feel like it, for as long as I want. Just like Mystique from X-Men.

Just imagine.. I can turn into hot sexy female celebs and take nude pictures of myself masturbating.. HAHA! That'd be awesome.

I won't suck any dick though, but I would have lesbian sex with other girls! Finally the sex tapes would be worth watching!

You've probably seen this plenty of times, but if you're choosing invisibility, take a look <a href="http://www.homestarrunner.com/sbemail41.swf">at this.</a>

So, what if he does?! "Hey dude, see that chick? I banged her once. No, I don't remember her name."

It could be so easy. Why do women have to put up such a front for each other all the time?

Physical prowess? Keen detection skills?

The ability to banter well with super villains?"

If a girl has sex with one guy, for some reason - that means she has had sex with EVERY guy in the entire city, thus making her a superwhore.

The logic escapes me, but it's a societal thing. Men are allowed to go around making conquests by screwing women because they don't neccisarily have the deal with the consequences, but women - who get get pregnant - always must deal with them. Thus, even with protected sex, there's still a stigma.

God bless pre-Jersey Girl Kevin Smith.

I must be the only one in the world that doesn't think Jersey Girl sucked.

It wasn't excellent, I'll point out, but it wasn't nearly as bad as some critics seem to make it out to be.

However, the current commercial for the DVD ("Help a fat man out with the Bling Bling to keep his wife") is just... pathetic. It's very sad.

Out of curiosity, then, have you met any/many lesbian girls who were all for lots of sex and didn't care for sappy relationships?

And I want to be Pure Evil. Mmm.

Me? I'd have the ability to freeze time-- Think about the possibilties. If you get into a fight, freeze time, kick the guy's ass, and then unfreeze time. See a cute girl in a skirt? Freeze time, take a peek (or do...uh, more, if you're an asshole), walk away and unfreeze. Ahhh...

But you know what would be really interesting? To see a superhero with a truly useless power (Aqua Man not withstanding), like... Bullet-proof nipples, or the ability to transform your arms into palm trees, or being able to ooze shampoo out of your armpits. Now THAT's a superhero comic I'd be interested in reading.

I once wrote a short story about a "superhero" who only had the ability to materialize sandwiches - he would wave his arm and hoagies, meatball subs, and philly cheese steaks would appear. They were really good sandwiches, but it was sucky because he had some colleges in the same city who could like - create psychic swords, become totally invincible, and shoot ice beams out of their eyes.

Anyways, the guy ends up saving the city by making a spicy sandwich and tossing some jalepeno peppers in the eyes of some crazy terrorist.

And the people of the city still make fun of him. But he decides to fuck 'em all and moves away to start a fast-food franchise.
