If I have Dr. Manhattan level superpowers I'd be all angsty about losing my humanity. Otherwise I'd be all angsty about having some super-powers but not Dr. Manhattan level superpowers.

depends on the superpower.
Ultimately I'd try to make it so I would make a lot of money and only do things that I enjoy. Whether or not that means rob a shit ton of banks, threaten society, etc. then so be it.
Also I'd capture Haggis just for the fun of it and make him my slave.

i'd just like to teleport wherever I want. because then I wouldn't have to rob a bank to visit tahiti, I could just throw on some swim trunks, teleport to the beach, get wasted, dance with models, and then teleport right back into my shower before hitting the hay.
And, maybe super speed, so I could rob banks to supplement my teleporting lifestyle. this is important because the speed allows you to not be caught on film, whereas the teleporting means you exert less effort

Back when I was trying to write comics, one of my ideas was that people with superpowers would generally use them for nefarious purposes and not to save people (my contention is that people are selfish). So there would be 10 criminals for every one super hero.

I would choose Super Seed to help my marigolds in the garden.

I would use them to efficientize my lifestyle. (my powers are shields and portals) I would use the shields and form them into any object I wanted, so I could easily build structuress with them. Also, I'd start a endless cereal box company. You pay $30 a month for an endless box of cereal (there's a portal in the bottom to the cereal bin that gets refilled constantly), and you get all the cereal you want.

You would probably make more money with a gloryportal.
I would be lame and just fly around. That's pretty much all I've ever wanted. I guess i could save cats or help build tall things.

depends on the superpower honestly.
i like to think that i'd use it to enact some kind of justice, but i would probably be too lazy to do so lol

I would walk through the most gang infested, violent places in the middle of the night wearing a gold watch, then perform fatalities on every mugger that attacked me. Unless I was "unharmed by a nuke to the face" powerful, who can resist trying to conquer something in that case?

it'll be awesome if you could grab the spine from inside the mouth and leave them spineless but with the head intact.

It depends on the superpower, really.
I just know regrowing my body or parts thereof into new forms at will (call it "shapeshifting" if you want) could be all kinds of fun.

If I had that power, I would just make it so I wasn't short anymore.
I wouldn't have to mess with my dick size though. God knows it's already one of the biggest.

Hey, quick question:
what's that book/fantasy novel where after you kill someone, you can take one of their abilities/powers; however, you must also incur one of their negative aspects as well?
