One thing. I'm not talking end war or hunger or shit like that.

The body. What could be physiologically improved?

My vote goes for either
-Improved teeth. Seriously what the fuck is up with these shitty teeth we have? Why do they require so much care? Brush them 3 times a day? Floss them all the time? Come on...I should be able to drink battery acid and have my teeth come out squeaky clean. Step it up teeth

or

-Reversed Knees. I remember seeing this in an issue of Scientific American on this subject about 10 years ago. Instead of knee caps facing forward, they're backwards. Result is serious forward lunges and 20 foot basketball hoops.

I could do with another six inches or so.


Plus I'd like to be taller.

Nope. It's not about you.

Something that we as a species can all benefit from...

I guess we could all benefit from you getting six inches or so.

... if you're game.

How about we not start degenerating at age 30?

Or, maybe someone could invent a pill which simulates exercise. That'd do I guess.

Also, wings.

Simple: The ability to use more of the brain. It's like a computer with 32 GB of RAM that can only use 3.7 before it crashes.

The 64 bit human.

Better internal organs. All of them basically. My guess is that electronic versions of all the major organs will be pretty common in the next twenty years or so. Some of us are probably destined to have them.

Actually, this should be in the "what would you name your porno.." thread as well. As in "shot in 'rear-vision'".
