Itâs the same superpower as Batman.
All we need to get this is someone with remote telekinesis, a major televised sporting event and enough stake money to get the ahem ball rollingâŚ

Well I would have gone with double sided tape and a wall, to each their own.
Ok, next level:
Phasing vs. Invisibility

Phasing. No question. Invisibility is riddled with problems, as weâve seen above.

If I couldnât have flying, I think maybe the power I would want would be to teleport people, cars full of people, and other people-related things somewhere far from me in a way that was ultimately not too harmful or inconvenient for them. This would include people at keyboards on the internet being transferred from their systems and sent somewhere where they couldnât comment, like a user block, except only for a few hours and in meat space. I would use my power for good, but thousands of horrible @RealDonaldTrump Twitter fans would be disappearing in bursts, and the people who take more than 15 items in the 15 items or less lines at the grocery store would wind up in the correct line. If the power was merely that I could teleport people who are in the wrong line to the correct one, that might even be enough.

This is the one I always choose as well, partly because it reduces to so many other classic superpowers:
- Faster than a speeding bullet? Sure, just pause, amble towards your target and unpause.
- Super kung-fu skills? If you stop/start fast enough you can dodge every blow, and be in exactly the right place to counter (possibly with a frying pan to the face, because why not)
- Super healing powers? Yeah, just pause, then take a couple of months off. Itâll be fine.
Itâs also the only superpower that has the mundane use of getting a lie-in every single morning.

Hell, yes.
- Run out of money? Stop by the bank!
- X-ray vision? Just take a quick peek around the corner or in the suitcase.
- Someone need medical attention? Get them to the hospital lickety-split!
- Forget your anniversary? Go grab some flowers!
- Need to zing your arch-nemesis? Take a moment to craft a righteous taunt.

I donât need to imagine any superpowers for myself. I only need to imagine that the powers that I already have are actually super:
⌠minus the rope thing. That is not one of my powers, and I get slightly dizzy imagining having to do that.

How I do wish that film had been better. The liberties taken with geography in Ann Arbor, alone, made it difficult to watch.

Still havenât seen it. I liked the book. It was one of those off-kilter, âhey its a $1 paperback science fiction novel at the used bookstore, why not?â reads.

Ya probably shouldnât bother. The only character with watching is Jacksonâs.

Why is Apache Chief blushing there? Did he accidentally make his âLittle Chiefâ grow to enormous size?
I have been told by various people that I have the power of disillusioning. If people have some precarious personal or social illusion they rely upon for creating some semblance of normality - I cause it to disappear.
