The ability to control the temperature (and perhaps humidity and/or composition too) of air within 1mm of my body. Like a personal air conditioner. Would make going outside right now so much more bearable, pretty sure it would help with sleep too… Sigh, one can dream…

Treatyoself,

Exactly once a month, I find a 20 on the ground. It can be anytime of the month and it can only be once a month. How great a feeling to find a 20 on the ground and no one is around?

The 20s are coming from scumbag people like jerks who don’t pick up their dogs poop or are mean to customer service people.

DrQuint,

Why not once a day? You’d still not be making much out of it and I think there’s enough assholes that you’re not making much of a dent to the asshole flux.

noksucow,

Superhuman patience.

ahal,

To get my kids to fall asleep at their bed time.

mycoxadril,

You’re thinking too small. You’ve got to ask to have your kids do everything you ask them to do.

So you say bedtime, they go to sleep. You say sit still and quiet for this particular moment, they listen. You say look here and smile, bam, instant beautiful family picture.

I’d settle for them listening after the third time I asked them to do something. I’m not greedy.

For the sleep thing, melatonin is magical. 1/4 of a 1mg melatonin chewable is barely anything but it’ll knock them out because they think it’s supposed to. I could switch to gummy bears now and I bet it would still work on them.

The ability to know exactly the right thing to say at any given time. Because I often do the opposite right now.

rclkrtrzckr,

Sounds like ADHD familiar. Maybe just think a second before saying something, then say the opposite (or anything appropriate) . Problem solved.

Nope, over thinking it has the same result. Still wrong.

I'd like to be able to double jump, platform video game-style. Mostly pointless in daily life, but imagine how good it would feel?

VelvetStorm,

Any species of insect of my choosing within 12 inches of my body instantly die and I can activate or deactivate this power at will.

Or the ability to be fresh out of the shower and perfectly dried off clean instantly whenever I choose.

200ok,

Every morning when I wake up my clothes and dishes from yesterday are cleaned and put away

DreamerOfImprobableDreams,

And every Saturday morning, all the clothes vanish from my hamper and re-appear clean and hung up in my closet / folded in my drawers!

The ability to know if a fruit is going to taste good just by holding it. Perhaps being able to experience the taste of it (when it ripens) by holding it. Perhaps also being able to tell peak ripeness. But that may be op. I’d settle for the first part.

Is it weird that I can already do this with peaches, nectarines, and clementine oranges?

anarchoplayworker,
@anarchoplayworker@lemmy.world avatar

Really‽ I’m so impressed. You must be some kind of superhero.

Happens when you eat about ten oranges every winter day and five peaches every summer day as a child.

(Also, nice use of the interrobang! Been a while since I’ve seen it.)

pseudonym,

Shark hands, because it would be awesome

CanadaPlus,

One of the biggest ones that still classifies as small?

Veritrax,

I’d take perfect aim when throwing something. You always hit the garbage can, you’re unstoppable playing darts. You never miss flinging a playing card at your friends.

Chrisosaur,

You’re suddenly a superstar athlete making tens of millions of dollars. I think we have to disqualify you from the game on those grounds.

aesopjah,

Weak earth-bending. Like just enough to like dig garden furrows or build sand castles. Even at the same speed that it would take with hand tools it would be pretty fun to mess around with.

Britches,

The ability to sneeze and get the relief even if the feeling fades.
