Yeah, but you couldn't always guarantee you'd change correctly - look at superman, lightning quick but he always forgot his y-fronts until the last moment. I'd hate the same thing to happen to you!

If I'm totally honest, I would really like my power to be free from consequence. Oh, hell, yes! I'm going to jump off a building, because it doesn't have any consequence...see you at the bottom! Either that, something sleazy, or immortality.
Free from consequence

Free from consequence, sounds like the movie 'Groundhog Day' where it doesn't matter what Bill Murray does because the next day he can just start again, cool! I really like that movie, not seen it for a while, think i'll dust it off

invisibility, appeals to the shyness in my personality...who am I kidding?!...appeals to one with a penchant for gossip
It could be handy in numerous applications, at work-to avoid the boss, in clubs-to avoid that drunk geezer who's spotted you're alone and all other women have fled, at home-when you've done summat bad, like broken something and you need to hide to avoid reprimand, and any time that you want to find out something by spying secret agent stylie

Invisibility would be COOOL! :D Also it helps you avoid security guards when you are creaping around the Maths Tower.

Any of the above are fine by me !!
Although - would like to point out that the power of invisability would only be any good if you could turn visable again !!

Groundhog Day always tickles me: I just imagine Bill Murray snapping and murdering someone, then the next day arriving and he realises he's totally in the shit.

It nearly was..... only joking.
I would like to have the power to know what a person is going to do next. Having a sixth sense on everybody would be very interesting.

Good god that would be dangerous! Imagine knowing that your boss was going to sack you ages before it happened.

Imagine finding out everyone else had sixth sense but had just kept it a big secret from you. That would be totally gutting. Being able to talk with the dead would be kinda cool, a great career as a murder investigator to be had from that one. Actually, is that dramatic enough to be an actual superhero power?

I would say so! :D

You really don't know what I think about that comment do you? Hehehehe

Yes, that would be ''gutting''!
How about not only being able to talk to people but actually being able to see them - now that would be strange!
Thinking about it, I would like to have the powers of a Chameleon and blend in with my surroundings - I would definitely be a dodgy super villain and steal priceless diamond necklaces for my lady friends.
