Flight

I'm surprised to see that invisibility is winning.

I have to choose flight...just for the sheer thrill of flight.

Invisibility makes a lot more sense...much more practical, a lot more useful (me? I'd just hang out in the White House. I just want to know what Bush does all day, and WHO is responsible for certain bouts of idiocy)...but, shit...how can I say no to being the only person around who can fly??

as long as I can turn it on and off at will, I'd choose invisibility, no doubt. if I have no control over when it's on, or if it's always on, then I don't want it. then I would choose flight and mostly never use it. just have it for situations where it's necessary.

i'd be invisible and go hire cross roads. but i wouldnt even have to hire it...i could just take it.

I'd rather fly, but as Rimbaud said, flying would create a lot of troubles. It would be hard to be unnoticed, and after that a flying dude would be captured and medically examined or shot down and medically examined. So I'm forced to go with the invisibility, even though flying is 100 times better.

Actuall, it is so much better that maybe it would be worth taking the risk?

Flight, absolute zero .

The problems with invisibility are twofold:

1 almost everything that would be worth doing while invisible is (to my mind) immoral. In fact there's only one thing to do while invisible - snoop.

2 Being invisible wouldn't be all that great for more than a few minutes without the further step of doing something you couldn't normally do while visible (snooping).

Flight would be stone cold awesome. I doubt it would ever get old. I can't think of a single situation that couldn't be improved by the ability to fly.

Flight. zero.

I just thought of something - it's you that has the power of invisibility and not your clothes, right?

You'd have to get naked before you activated this power, and leave your clothes somewhere safe so that you could return to them once you'd had your fill. So where this is totally normal? Yep, that's right - the gym. Let's be honest - even if you primary motivation for choosing this particular power isn't perving (which makes you a liar, BTW) you're still likely to make that detour via the ladies shower room before you head out.

I won't lie to you, I don't want to be invisible so that I can expose the illuminati, I just want to see Natalie Portman DJing at her downstairs disco.

That's far from a fact. Being able to walk down the street without being mugged or accosted is not snooping. Being able to suntan nude outside a police station isn't snooping. Throwing water balloons at people and never getting caught isn't snooping.

I bet I could come up with another 50 examples if I had to, not counting the ones already provided in this thread (like robbing a bank).

For me, being able to go out in public and not have any interactions with people would be the main draw. I'd love to walk down the street and know that nobody would look at me.

Jesus, Adam, think about the pranks! I don't care if showing my naked ass for half an hour for a full hoir during prime time on TV is immoral or not, I'd totally do this.

Flight would solve this problem.

!?!

They'd see the balloons coming - it wouldn't work.

like robbing a bank

How are you going to get into the bank? And out? You're not a ghost, just invisible. They'll see the money moving, even if you did get in.

This is better than flying?!
