Umm... Ahhh... urrrr... nevermind.

Some things are best left unsaid...


As far as seeing this, ARRGGHH! I JUST read this post, and turned it on at 8:57. But, the only thing I did see was the part where it said you can watch the entire episode at http://www.nbc.com/, so I\'m gonna watch it now. The thing that REALLY sucks is that this is on at the same time as House, my favorite TV program! I identify with the brilliant yet seriously socially-retarded doctor, not sure why. lol

Anyhow, I can see myself recording Heroes every week while I watch House, and if it\'s good maybe the other way around...

If you read my post Funny, the web address IS a link.

Update - They left the commercials in!

 

[matty1001]

I tried that link aswell marcus, but because of my geograpical location i aint allowed to watch it!

 

[MarkusTay]

That sux! It\'s discrimanation! We\'ll take it to the supreme court!

Oh wait... you can only do that if you live here...

Oh well, F the establishment.

Update: Watched it, it was very good. I think the stripper is nuts though, and killed those guys herself (It\'s been done, Marvel comics had a hero that ran around killing aliens posing as humans, and after a year you found out he was nuts and killing humans all along). I like the japanese guy, if he gets together with the clairvoyant, they could stop crimes before they happen. Oh, and I always thought being a cheerleader WAS a super-power.

If I had a choice, I would want invisibility. Not much good for saving people, but who\'s says I want to be a good guy?

Just started to watch it and I have a question:

Does the sun really make a reflected white spot on the surface of the earth?

As to super stripper mommy i belive her powers are kind of a jeckle and Mr. Hyde. The way i\'m reading into the show she has a darker side that is reflected in the mirrors that does \"bad\" things liek kill people. I guess she\'s to be the wolverine like anti-hero in the show.

Yeah, hers seems sort of more like a mental condition than a super power...

If I had a super power

I\'d want to be able to read minds!


but only the mind i want to, that way i don\'t go crazy from all the different thoughts of several thousand people.

what superhero power would you want?

 

[vincegamer]

When I was a kid I wanted to be able to climb walls like spiderman.
I think I just wanted to get away from everyone though.

Now I\'d just like to have a normal human level attention span.

The problem with reading minds is you may find out stuff you don\'t want to know.

Like how people really feel/think about you.

I believe starting next episode there\'s a policeman who has that power. At some point, he uses it to please his wife.:idea:

But I\'m sure we\'ll also see the drawbacks of that.

I\'m sticking with the telekinesis. It\'s not visible so the government won\'t necessarily find out and cut you up to see what makes you tick.

Thats what I like about invisibility, they CAN\'T see what makes you tick!

Forget about all those flashy powers; you need a couple bucks? Walk into a bank vault during business hours and walk out with a handful! Want to know what that mechanic was really doing when he charged you $700 to fix your car? Just watch him! Want to know what J-Lo actually looks like nakit? Well... you get the idea.

It may not be an impressive power, but you can have loads of fun with it!

Scare the crap out of people, get someone you don\'t like in trouble, pee on you boss\'s chair.....

The possibilities are endless!

 

[supervike]

I\'d want powers that would allow me to shrink to miniature size, so I could properly fondle that Fianna miniature I have.:beer:

Seriously...I think controlling time would be nice...make it fly while I am at work, and make it crawl when I am doing something enjoyable.

The wife and I gave TV the boot so I haven\'t seen the show. As for superpowers I want I have always wanted to have my own theme music that I can control, everyone within a certain area hears your music in their head. It really would set the tone when you walk into a room.

WooHoo! Another one without the wallpaper of mind numbingness!

Wait a minute, are you saying people can\'t hear the music?

Sorry to damage your reality Vince. I didn\'t know either until my wife told me she couldn\'t hear \"our\" sex soundtrack.

There was an episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer about this - \"Earshot\". She\'s walking down the hallway in her school and all she can \"hear\" are the various anxieties and neuroses of the miserable students. And of course her friends:

Xander: (thinking) What am I gonna do? I think about sex all the time. Sex. Help. 4 times 5 is 30. 5 times 6 is 32. Naked women. Naked girls. Naked Buffy. Oh stop me.
Buffy: God Xander! Is that all you think about?
Xander: Actually...bye!

Oz: I am my thoughts. If they exist in her, Buffy contains everything that is me and she becomes me. I cease to exist. Huh.

 

[vincegamer]

Sheesh, am I the only codger to remember the Twilight Zone?

One episode a guy gets the ability to hear thoughts. He works at a bank and hears an employee thinking about stealing and has them search him only to find his bag empty. When everyone leaves the guy says \"how did you know? I\'ve had that fantasy the whole 30 years I\'ve worked here.\"

NSA - GREAT episode, that was!

My friends and I laugh because whatever Cordelia thought was EXACTLY what she said!lol

The problem with invisibility is that you can still be HEARD. Not many people can move around and not be heard.

You\'d still bump into people or things, it\'s just too much hassle.

You\'re a true geek if you\'ve thought about this too much, thinking about the pros and cons of what are considered the \"classic\" powers, like invis., flying, strength...
