If you could have one superpower

If you could have one superpower what would it be?
I'd defo go for invisibility. Travel the world for free and whenever you want. Wouldn't have to worry about getting tickets for events. Just walk in. Etc etc.
One stipulation though would be my clothes would have to be invisible too whenever I'd want to activate my superpower. Wouldn't fancy having to walk around barefoot and in the nip in order to be invisible.

If the plane was full though, you wouldn't have a seat would you?

Not really any space to sit on the floor anywhere either.

To be honest mate, i don't think you've thought this through.

Teleportation would be better.

I'd put up with standing, arsing around finding somewhere to sit for a few minutes at a time. Or if the plane was full could just walk out and wait for the next one

I have this power every time I approach a bar. It's not all it's cracked out till be.

I'd definitely go for teleportation though .... so long as it was silent and with no flash of light etc. Fort knox would soon be emptied.

You'd be jockeying for space constantly though wouldn't you? There's nowhere you can just stand on a plane without some git wanting to walk past. One awkward bump when trying to evade someone walking and there's sexual abuse scandal everywhere and they'll know its you because how many people can make themselves invisible? It would be a lonely existence then, @Vintage

Reckon I'd rather not go invisible even if I could and just pay the money for a seat.

Steady now. Time travel isn't so simple. You have to incorporate the movement of the planet. If you only travelled a few days forward or backwards you'd find yourself floating in space, unless you moved in the same way as earth.

Ya space on a plane wouldn't be great but if some git is trying to get past I could just slightly push them to the side. They would probably just logically put it down to turbulence or something. Obviously you wouldn't be announcing to the world your invisible or your going to have the finger pointed at you as soon as a bank is emptied of all it's dough with no reason.
But travel is just one of the perks which your really starting to take the shine off

Could become the greatest ITK of all time on GOT too with invisibility

Would you travel back or forward or both ways in time. It's a risky superpower. If the likes of @matty1878 went back in time there be a high probability of him erasing himself from the present

China, it’s the least mentalist superpower we currently have

Has it's flaws. You could crack up if you fall over

Says the man who wanted to teleport.

Just add another dimension ffs.

Disregarding Planet rotation.
If you wanted to go back to say Roman London, bearing in mind you'd have to be there first, only one Super power, not teleportation combined with time travel.
Anyway the fall will probably break both your ankles as it's all 20-30ft under present day levels now

Nothing's ever simple
