I Have a Dark Side
I used to read comics when I was a kid, and Hollywood regurgitating them back these days has been amusing. It makes me think about what I would do if I had super powers or even magic, and sometimes I'm glad that I don't because a lot of people would get hurt or even killed.
Frequently, when I'm waiting to cross the street, I imagine manifesting an invisible wall across the street just to watch cars smash into it at full velocity. Other times, I'd quite enjoy the ability to make people's heads explode with such force that their skull shrapnel would also kill bystanders. Beyond murder and maiming, perhaps something like time manipulation for some mirth and mayhem? Your smug coworker makes some snide comment at the board meeting. Stop time, punch them in the face, resume time and smile.
It's a good thing that special powers and magic don't exist because I'd abuse them for my evil, sick, and twisted desires...
