The one thing I'm confused about with Looper is whether all things would revert back to where they were, or if whatever happened still happened, just you would be the only one who knows it.

Looper - literally could make infinite dollars day trading or trading stocks in general


This situation wouldn't work though I don't think? You're expecting two contradictory things if I understand correctly.

You would trade away something and get a dollar. Loop. Do you keep the dollar, or does everything revert back to where it was?

I feel like Looper you could make a lot of money on betting, knowing what is going to happen before it actually happens.

I choose efficient because it would leave so much more time for activities. Though afterwards I was kind of bummed because I enjoy eating and enjoy the taste of food, so I'd probably still suck on pizza and spit it out.

It's not that hard to understand. You have information about how a stock price is going to go, you loop an hour back, therefore you can capitalize. Same with what Dylan said on betting.

attn vlady: can we get a ruling on whether you capitalizing on foreknowledge would change the future?

I feel like Superhuman and Prodigy would both enhance my life more than the others. Although Looper would be useful as well.

I'd be okay with working for a living, so Moneybags is out.

The Madman seems a little weird. I could just do the drugs recreationally anyway if I
chose to.

I almost chose efficient, but sleep is fun and I like to eat. I'd be cool with never having to go to the washroom again.

Moneybags & Efficient.

I wouldn't have to spend my money on food and I could live the best life for me. Also, I love spending money and I wouldn't ever get fat.


also these two. Plus my life dream is to travel around the world so never having to sleep I could take all the late night flights and always be fully energized to experience everything plus get money

You could use performance enhancing drugs with Madman to actually get better results than
with Superhuman, unless you are always working out.

Always being awake means that you'd be the only one awake when your family is sleeping, and maybe you'd have a shorter life.
Otherwise it's only positives I think.

Moneybags - I like this one. I could see where this would be a problem because it would make you lazy, but I honestly would see it as an opportunity to pursue some of my bigger passions whether they give me income or not. I feel like I would still work part-time for extra money too

Superhuman - I can see where this would be cool, but there aren't really many things I do or want to do that would require strength. Unless it also helped my body look super jacked, I'm not sure I would pick this over other options. BUT, if I had this ability like 6-7 years ago when I was playing college soccer and looking to go further, heck yeah!

Prodigy - I like being dumb

Looper - This one is definitely one of my two options. I have always been fascinated by the movie Click and the many times he does something and rewinds it. I could punch people, humiliate them, yell at them and then just rewind time. I would get everything off my chest and not have consequences but still feel better about it. I could also do a lot of things that were risky to try and not worry if things go sour.

Madman - Not really into this one. I don't do any drugs and I rarely take medication for anything.

Efficient - While not sleeping anymore has been a dream of mine (pun intended), this one heavily depends on whether or not I would feel satisfied by participating in any of the things that being "efficient" would take away. Like, if I would still enjoy consuming food/drinks or if I would never feel the desire, therefore I would never want to eat or drink anymore. Food is great. Drinks are great. Not ever wanting to participate in either and never sleeping while everyone else is seems super lonely...and creepy. Reminds me of the "Be Right Back" episode in black mirror. The creepy husband who did no normal human things.
