    I’m very forgetful, so I guess in this scenario I have an eidetic memory. I become one of those weird guys who wins every game show due to my fantastic recall of everything I’ve ever read, seen or heard.

    I guess my head becomes invincible and nothing can hurt it and I feel no pain in my head, ever?

    I’m a jack of all trades, master of none:m; so I’ll be a virtuoso of one thing.

    My gremlins that used to crawl over every inch of my home taking things apart, leaving things in senseless places, and constantly asking for food, a listening ear and a hug - are now helping me out around the house, listening when I need another perspective and generally helping keep me out of trouble.

    TL;DR - Just parenthood, if all goes to plan…

    A lot of people read this as “your greatest weakness is now gone” which makes sense given the video game slider analogy

    Meanwhile I’m here like “how do I somehow, hilariously, become unstoppable by means of procrastinating everything”?

    But I did think of it: significantly extend my lifespan by procrastinating dying :]

      It’s not a fortunate power, but time stops for everyone and everything until you are doing something that’s even slightly productive.

      The cosmic burden of knowing that all of time relies on you getting off the couch, grabbing a shower, and getting done whatever tedious chore you’ve been putting off. Constantly.

      Not a boon, but a curse.

    I’m not really sure what my biggest weakness is, but I’ll just say its my crippling fear of asking people for stuff. So now, either people ask me for things, or whatever I ask other people to do is immediately done? More confusing than a strength I’d say.

    Somehow, my indifference to heights means I control the known universe. Nobody, least of all me, knows why or how.

    I become capable of doing everything I want to, when I want to do it, instead of overthinking and second guessing myself.

    I then work my way up to becoming an uploaded intelligence and abolishing capitalism. /s

    My love care and empathy for other people has made me the most lovable woman in my country and the most suitable spokesperson for humankind

    Reality: I dont like people and my interactions with them , especially when I was young (partys.and stuff) only bolstered that feeling

    Well, now that I don’t absolutely suck at talking to strangers and don’t fumble my words, my life just got a lot easier.
